Owner's Profile
Owner Description
Year Purchased: 2002
Jim & Gina Laguzza love to travel the U.S. They don't like staying in cramped, uncomfortable hotels. They love having the choice of eating out or cooking a healthier meal in the privacy of a house or condo! The VRBO experience has always been rewarding being the party that rents out the property or being the guest at another member's property.They have met many wonderful people!
Why the Owner Chose Yankton
We chose Lewis and Clark Lake because of it's close proximity to our primary residence to Omaha, Ne. Very few people from Omaha realize how close this well kept secret is from the residents of eastern Nebraska and western Iowa. The lake has everything for the water enthusiast and the perfect location for a quiet getaway!
The Unique Benefits of this House
We love staying at the house during the fall and winter. The fall foliage is absolutely gorgeous and it very enjoying to relax during the cold winter months reading a good book and having a hot bowl of soup in front of the fireplace!
