Location

A bit to the north of Galena proper, this hotel has easy access to a few restaurants, a mini-golf course, and a nearby Walmart. You will also be just a block or two off the highway, which will take you to the Chestnut Mountain Resort slopes in less than half an hour. The downtown Galena area is about 10 minutes away in case you want to have a larger selection for your dining and entertainment.

• Distance to Chestnut Mountain Resort ski access: 11 miles
• Within walking distance: A couple of eateries and a mini-golf course
• Transportation: Definitely bring a car if your ambitions are a little greater than a round of mini golf
