  We spent the weekend in the townhouse and we loved every minute of it! It is very clean and the photos that describe it are very accurate. It is very well maintained and we all felt very at home. There were 8 of us which included an 8 year old and a 2 year old and family members from Lincoln, Kansas and Chicago. We all truly enjoyed our stay and had so much fun watching for the trains to pass through. Nice atmosphere and loved the front porch. There is a great bakery down the street and we visited Henry Doorly Zoo and just really enjoyed our visit including walking to the "Fork in the Road" - - I highly recommend it! It had that comfortable at home feeling and the owner was very nice and seemed helpful in every way!

  The family gathered here, half from Denver, half from Minneapolis. We were 2 couples and our aunt. We each had our own bedroom and bath. This was wonderfully convenient. We were so close to the old market area which was what we wanted. This property is like visiting in a House Beautiful home. Everything is perfectly appointed. It is immaculately clean. It is as if the owner just left, there are so many decorative touches and personal items. The bedrooms have luxury linens and towells. Each bedroom has a TV. The kitchen has everything a gourmet cook could need. And there is a great gas grill on the back patio. The dishes were a lovely stoneware pattern, everything matched, making it a pleasure to set the table and load the dishwasher. We loved Patrick's Market (14th and Howard). They gave us personal attention, cut magnificent filet mignons, ordered for us giant shrimp for our aunt's famous (to us) baked stuffed shrimp. We visited the Doorley Zoo, the Joslyn Art Museum, and walked the downtown bronze statues (over 100 pieces). We also walked the pedestrian bridge into Iowa. All of this was so much fun. We went to the Old Market several times, and particularly love this collection of shops, bars and restaurants. We had a fabulous lunch at M's Pub and really recommend this restaurant. We plan to come back to Omaha regularly and will stay at this property. The photos on the listing give a very accurate sense of the place. Bonnie is very helpful, phone calls to her are returned promptly. In short, which this was not, this is agreat place and we all recommend it highly!

  My 3 friends & I met in Omaha for a girls' weekend, we all grew up in Omaha and graduated from high school together. Now we live in 4 different states. The townhome was perfect for us. We spent so much time sitting around the kitchen table having coffee in the morning & wine in the evenings. There was nothing we would have changed in the townhouse, it was perfect. There were so many spots to sit and relive our memories: kitchen, livingroom, front porch, back patio. It was relaxing and comfortable. The furnishings were so comfortable and stylish. We'd highly recommend it and would rent it again in a minute. It's proximity to the Old Market and Riverfront was very convenient. And, Orsi's Pizza & Bakery down the street was a good source of a Saturday evening pizza feast. The owner has spent so much attention to detail, the kitchen was well appointed and the bedding was first class, like an upscale hotel. Perfection!!

  Just got back from a wonderful stay in your lovely town home. Our girl's outing included 4 of us who all grew up in Omaha, although in another area of the city (Benson - yes, we were bunnies). It was fun walking through sections of town where we had never spent much time. We loved everything about your place - the location was convenient to the Old Market, your home was better stocked than any place any of us have ever rented through VRBO, the decor and accommodations were wonderful. Orsis had wonderful pizza for the evening it was pouring and we didn't want to wander out and the neighbors even invited us to attend the annual "Fork Fest" picnic on Saturday. And loved that it was so close to Cascio's Steakhouse, where we often went for pre/post dance meals in high school. We highly recommend your home for anyone planning a visit to Omaha and we will rent it again the next time we have a girl's reunion in Omaha.

  This is a fantastic townhouse, just a short walk to the heart of the Old Market in Omaha (with amazing restaurants, shops, cafes and nightlife). There's a lovely front/back porch, easy parking, a friendly neighborhood and a great home away from home. The house is wonderfully outfitted, has free wifi and a great little breakfast nook (that'll make you eat breakfast for longer than planned). The best part is on Saturday morning's in the summer, it's a 10 minute walk away from the farmer's market. I would definitely recommend this to everyone!

  What a great place to stay while visiting in Omaha. My four sisters and I went to visit our nieces who attend school in Omaha. We decided to rent this townhouse instead of a couple hotel rooms. It was much more than we expected! This place was beautiful and perfect for our weekend. We traveled in December and did a lot of Christmas shopping. The townhome was decorated for Christmas, and it was so warm and inviting. We loved staying in the townhome and really felt at home. It was extremely clean and neat, and I would highly recommend this for your next trip to Omaha. Thanks Bonnie -- Your place is awesome.

  We rented this home for a family vacation and had a wonderful time. The house was beautiful and within walking distance of the old market and Heartland Park. The trains across the street were fun and our 2 year old loved them! Overall we enjoyed staying in a home rather than a hotel and would rent again when back in Omaha!

  We just had an amazing 3 week stay in this property. The location is great, and the property is beautifully decorated... even these attractive pictures don't do it justice. My husband and I stayed with our two young children and my parents, and we were all very comfortable there. The neighbors in this great little condo complex were very friendly, and even welcomed our children to play outdoors with them one evening. The owners could not have been more gracious and helpful. The house was beyond well-stocked, and immaculately clean. We had a problem getting on the internet -- probably our error -- and the owner stopped by and spent a great deal of time with us helping us get it fixed. My kids unfortunately tore a leather chaise while we were there, and the owners researched the least expensive option possible for fixing it, and gave us back the vast majority of our rental deposit, which in my opinion was totally unnecessary (but tremendously appreciated!). These are the exact kind of nice people that make Omaha such a wonderful place to be. I've rented from other VRBO owners in Omaha, and this was far and away the best stay that I have had. Some of the other VRBO properties are purely investments -- for folks that don't even live in the Omaha area -- and you can tell that when you check into the property... it's often stuffy with that "closed up" smell. The owners tell me they stay here when it's not rented, and that shows in the amount of care taken for the place. The ONE drawback -- if you're the noise-sensitive type -- is that not only is the Amtrak station across the street, but it's a major thoroughfare for train traffic, so it's quite busy. We actually found this quaint, however... and my kids loved watching the trains go by. If it's a problem, though... we found a brand new pair of ear plugs in the nightstand. :) Seriously, they thought of everything! You won't regret a stay here! The location couldn't be better for the Old Market (some locals might tell you it's not safe to walk from the house to there, but if you're from a major urban area at all, it's completely in safe walking distance) or the zoo. Orsi's Italian Bakery is at the end of the block, and it's a must for their gooderoni (?) pizza (try the spinach & potato) and bread. You have fairly easy interstate access from here, so it's convenient regardless of where you're going in Omaha. Seriously, if you're visiting Omaha, this place is your best bet!

  We had a wonderful visit to this town home. This was our first family trip with our 2 year old and staying at your place made it soooo easy! A highchair, baby gates, and toys were waiting for our toddler upon arrival and all of the bedrooms were stocked with everything we could possibly need. Beautifully decorated and well equipped. Will definitely be returning. Old Market is right down the street, the zoo, Childrens' Museum, and botanical gardens are all within a 5 minute drive. Thank you for providing us with such fantastic accommodations.

  We spent the weekend here while celebrating our son's graduation from Creighton. Perfect location... Wonderful accommodations. Spacious... The townhouse was beautiful, even nicer than the photos!!! Large, comfortable, modern, spotless bedrooms and bathrooms! The kitchen is fully appointed. Parking was easy... and there is even an amazing Italian bakery just down the street! We will definitely stay here again!!!

  Owner response: We are so happy to hear that our renters were thoroughly satisfied with their Omaha visit experience. We (my husband and I) work very hard to make the townhouse a true "Home Away from Home". We do the work ourselves and have a lot invested in the property. It is our goal to have Happy Renters.
