You are invited to relax, restore and explore our adults-only Galena Illinois Bed and Breakfast at Hawk Valley Retreat & Cottages, a nature lover’s destination. We are located just 8 miles east of downtown Galena. Stroll our 10 secluded acres of meadows and gardens. Complete with a pond, walking trail, panoramic valley, and sunset views. Watch the birds, enjoy the porch swing, or relax in our gazebo, and make it your own private haven. At Hawk Valley Retreat & Cottages your accommodation choices include three rooms in the main house or four private cottages. We also have a renovated barn that is available through full property rental or for day events. Each morning, wake up to a hearty full breakfast with home-baked pastries which is served in the renovated circa 1905 barn.
John grew up in the restaurant business and spent his career serving great food and beverage. Jim has a dietetics degree and spent his life catering and is happiest when feeding people. We put our 70 years of experience in the kitchen into the service of scratch-baked and homemade. If you ask nicely, we may even give you the recipe.
