    Location was good. Very clean cabin. Check-in and checkout was very fast, before we came, the owner send the instructions and it was all smooth. They even recommend the best restaurants nearby. We will definitely come back next time.

    Located outside of Galway so you feel removed from some of the hubbub but still conveniently located for adventuring, shopping, etc. Very cozy inside.

    We loved our stay! My family has a similar cottage/lodge back in Michigan. It was a real joy to share a little taste of my childhood with my children. The lodge was clean, and comfortable. We loved the setting and the wildlife signs.
