Hotel
Although, Eagle Ridge Inn does not accommodate a block of hotel rooms, this is the location where our transportation will be picking up and dropping off from. There is also the option to book a villa or Airbnb in the Galena Territory. Eagle Ridge will kindly provide their own shuttle to/from the main lobby 24 hours a day if you choose to stay in an Airbnb within the Galena Territory. Allow yourself ample time if you are utilizing the Eagle Ridge shuttle to take you to the main lobby, as our buses leaving from the lobby will leave promptly at scheduled time. Please call the front desk at Eagle Ridge the day you check-in, in order to schedule pick up time if you are choosing this option. This would be the ideal place to stay if you do not want to worry about missing the bus or driving back to your hotel/Airbnb at the end of the evening.
House Or Rental
Airbnb is a great option if you are looking to stay for the weekend and enjoy everything Galena has to offer. There are many options surrounding the The Galena Territory, downtown Galena, or in Apple River (if you wish to be closer to the actual venue). If you prefer to not drive at all, we recommend booking an Airbnb in the Galena Territory. This will allow you to take Eagle Ridge's 24/7 shuttle back to your Airbnb at the end of the evening.
Hotel
The Irish Cottage is a quaint boutique hotel that offers a variety of amenities, including their very own Irish pub with live music. A great place to stay if you are in need of a freshly poured Guinness. Keep in mind, our transportation will be picking guests up from Eagle Ridge Resort which is about a 10 minute drive from The Irish Cottage. Also please be aware, Irish Cottage is roughly a 35 minute drive from our venue.
