This property is excellent!! It is exactly as described in the listing and pictures and is very well-maintained in a lovely, quiet neighborhood. Communication with Sarah was wonderful and very helpful. We stayed at this property for two weeks with our dogs and have nothing but great things to say about the property. We will definitely be back, thank you so much!

Great location!

We had a nice time staying here. The beds were super comfortable and after a long day of travel-just what the doctor ordered. Host was very accommodating and responsive. Location is perfect. It’s close to everything and there’s a nice lake right across the street. I would recommend staying here and we will again!

Pictures were a lot nicer than what appeared. Nice backyard with fire pit was pictured, but when we arrived there was no fire pit, yard was overgrown and cobwebs everywhere. We were not able to use the outdoor space. The hall bathroom had either freezing cold or scalding hot water. We were only able to use one bathroom with 6 people. For the amount of money we paid I expected much more. I am sorry to have to post a negative review, but I do feel this is a very deceiving property from pictures posted.

Perfect for Nebraska games

We traveled from out of state to Lincoln for a football game. We had a wonderful stay at this property. Close to the stadium and other nearby attractions. The property was described perfectly in the communication from the host was on point. This property fit our needs wonderfully and we will definitely be staying here again in the future.

Love this place!

Checkin was quick and easy thanks to the owner (vrbo app was doing some weird password loop and I couldn't get access there so stoked she was able to quickly help). Love the vintage house with modern upgrades. Super quiet too, so much that I didn't hear a 3" rain overnight!
