A short drive out of town from Galena, Hawk Valley Retreat and Cottages has all the peace and quiet of a rural setting, combined with the convenience of a quick drive into town. The innkeepers, Hal and Wendy are passionate about their place and go the extra mile to insure their guests have a superb experience.
