The room was very comfortable. The beds were great. The hosts Luke and Elaine were amazing, full of energy and great breakfast! And Mark was an absolute asset. Great to talk to. But I think their amenities were awesome ,a full bottle of wine, cheese and crackers and homemade cookies every night, champagne in the morning with your orange juice,If you wanted it, We truly appreciated everything and had a great time. Not to mention how close to downtown shops they were We never had to use our car once during the weekend

We had a great time. The staff was friendly, extremely helpful, and knowledgeable about the area. The bed and breakfast is tastefully decorated, clean, and within easy walking distance to the shops and restaurants. Grant Park is nearby and well kept and a pleasant place to relax. We took the trolley tour which was well worth the cost. The breakfast was tasty and well presented.

The staff is so accommodating and friendly. They take excellent care of you. The rooms are comfortalble and clean. The breakfast is amazing and very filling. You won't need to eat again until dinner. All the extra perks of wine, cheese and cookies are a special treat. I've been here before and I'd stay again. The convience of walking to the main street for shopping is also a big plus!

This was the first time I have been to Galena, and I can honestly say my favorite part about the entire trip - was the time I spent at Farmers Guest House! The hosts Mark, Luke and Elaine are absolutely incredible at what they do. They made the experience so special with just the perfect amount of interaction. The breakfasts were out of this world!!! So delicious. If you need anything you can write it on a card you hang on your door - and it magically appears in no time at all. Cheese, crackers, wine and a sweet treat in the evening. Such wonderful hosts, very clean, comfortable and quiet. It was absolutely perfect! I will definitely return! Hands down - this has to be one of the very best things Galena has to offer :) Thank you Mark, Luke and Elaine for such a memorable experience.

Stayed in the first-floor suite... that avoids climbing/descending the steep stairs to the second floor where most rooms are located. Nothing unusual for a building in service since 1867. Excellent breakfast room with many smaller tables in a large room so that there is no enforced conviviality required when a B&B sits everyone at a single communal table. Breakfast itself was fine... including larger than usual orange juice serving. Located on a busy two lane (under construction) street one street down from the main Galena downtown. No reserved parking at the B&B itself. Parking is across the street in a public parking area. Space was available during our 2-night mid-week visit. Might be a challenge sometimes. Galena is noted among other things for U.S. Grant connection... at the B&B you'll find Civil War maps and photos abound. Special thanks to Luke for assisting with baggage from the car during our early check-in arrival around noon.

Booked a spur of the moment weekend getaway and was so lucky to get a room at the Farmers Guest House! Mark, Luke, and Elaine were amazing hosts and spoiled us the entire time we were there! Breakfast was amazing and the evening wine and cheese was a nice treat after being out all day. We would love to visit again!

What a wonderful B&B such great hospitality from Luke, Elaine, and Mark. All the little extras they did to make your stay welcoming was such a nice touch. Delicious meals and very comfortable rooms. It was also nice to have the downstairs area to play games, read and just visit. They made you feel at home immediately. Close proximity to Main Street wonderful for walking to and from a day/night of fun. Would 100% recommend!!!

The owners told us to consider their B&B as our own residence. They are very accommodating and friendly so it really is as home. Breakfasts are amazing chef creations. Even though there is highway construction nearby, the owners are very helpful in providing assistance resulting in zero disruption. The rooms are roomy and quiet so provide a restful environment. We will return.
