This resort is part of a unique community: Galena, Illinois. This area has its roots in the mining boom of the mid-1800s, and today, guests are able to see the many original structures unravaged by the cruel hand of time. Old residences and other edifices have been painstakingly maintained, and a large portion of modern Galena can be found in the National Register of Historic Places. Tourism is the main industry of the town, and the boutiques, galleries, specialty shops, and restaurants reflect a desire to cater to the needs of more than 1 million people each year who come to visit this town. It's not just shopping that brings people to Galena in droves; nearby can be found abundant open-air recreation options at Apple River Canyon State Park. Also located close-at-hand are four rigorous world-class golf courses, trails for horseback riding and several downhill skiing areas.
WorldMark Galena occupies a prime position next to Eagle Ridge Resort's General, the most intense of the four first rate golf courses in Galena. Every unit comes with a cable TV, fireplace, deck, and dining area. One- and two-bedroom units include fully equipped kitchens. The resort boasts a glassed-in indoor pool, spa and game room.
