The Bogey at Oak Glen | Galena Territory Vacation Rental | Walk to Eagle Ridge

The Bogey at Oak Glen sleeps up to 6 guests — two king bedrooms plus a sleeper sofa in the living room.

The Bogey has two bedrooms — both with king beds and private ensuite bathrooms. The upstairs bedroom includes a Smart TV. The lower-level bedroom has its own private ensuite bath. The living room has a sleeper sofa for additional guests. It's an ideal setup for two couples who each want their own space.

Very close. The Bogey's deck overlooks the South Course at Eagle Ridge, and the South Course clubhouse is steps away — guests frequently walk directly from the property to their tee time. Eagle Ridge Resort and Spa, with all four championship courses, is approximately five minutes away by car. Discounted golf passes are available exclusively for guests of The Bogey — ask at the time of booking.

Yes. The living room features a wood-burning fireplace — a standout feature for fall and winter stays. Guests consistently mention morning coffee by the fire and evenings watching the snow on the course as favorite moments.

The Bogey at Oak Glen does not have a private hot tub. The golf course deck, wood-burning fireplace, and included GTA Owners Club access (indoor and outdoor pools, fitness center) more than fill the gap for relaxation. Every stay includes 6 GTA Owners Club access cards.

Every stay includes 6 Galena Territory Owners Club access cards providing access to an indoor pool (year-round) and an outdoor pool (Memorial Day through Labor Day), plus a fitness center, game room, gymnasium, pickleball and tennis courts, 31 miles of trails, and Lake Galena boat rentals. Additional day passes are $5/person for ages 5+.

Yes. The Bogey at Oak Glen is dog-friendly for hypoallergenic breeds only — up to 2 dogs with a $150/dog fee. Please disclose the number, breed, and size of your dogs at the time of booking.

Historic Downtown Galena is approximately 12 minutes from The Bogey by car — boutique shopping, wine tasting, fine dining, antiques, and year-round events.

The Galena Territory is a 6,800-acre private recreational and residential community in Jo Daviess County, Illinois, six miles east of historic Galena. It features Lake Galena, 31 miles of trails, a marina, a recreation complex with indoor and outdoor pools, and Eagle Ridge Resort and Spa. It is also a designated Dark Sky Community — meaning exceptionally clear night skies with minimal light pollution, making stargazing from The Bogey's deck a genuine experience.

The Bogey's location is genuinely unique — few properties in the Galena Territory sit this close to a golf course. Stepping off the back deck and walking to the South Course tee box is something guests mention in nearly every review. The symmetry of two matched king ensuites makes it the natural choice for two couples who want equal accommodations without compromise. The wood-burning fireplace and deck views make it a four-season property — as popular in January as in July. It's managed locally by The Collection Vacation Homes, whose team lives and operates in Galena year-round.
