About this property

Ives House - Historic Charm | Hot Tub

Be apart of Omaha history and stay in one of the best locations in our city. Walk to UNMC/Nebraska Med and Blackstone. Minutes to the Old Market, downtown, and Creighton University! This historic home has Victorian features such as a wrap-around porch, a grand staircase and beautiful woodwork, yet is totally modern and updated. Come enjoy this home, now with a hot tub. Want a romantic getaway? We are partnering with a local business so you can have your own personal chef.

Enjoy staying in a historic, but modern home. Built in 1889, the original owners, W. C. and Eva Ives built this lovely home which has a grand dining room. They were believed to love to host large gatherings. A short distance to the Joslyn Castle -- a great place to stay as guests for weddings. We also provide locally made coffee, tea, and sweet treats!

We hope you make memories here as we have recently added a hot tub and now partnering with local businesses to make your stay memorable. This house would be great for a romantic getaway! We can work with you to provide your own personal chef for an evening. Candlelit dinners in the beautiful dining room to add to the ambiance of this mini-mansion. Small gatherings or need additional for preparing for an event at the Joslyn-- it is right outside our door. Do you like board games? We have a vast library of board games-- let us know your preferences-- we just may have it.

We hope you make our AirBNB a part of your stay in Omaha. Come make memories here.

We loved the Ives House! Historic, updated, clean, relaxing, great location. Michael and Jackie put a lot of effort into our stay (coffee! chocolate! local info!) and were quickly in communication with us if needed. Loved the hot tub and comfy beds. Gorgeous bathrooms. Would definitely stay again.

The Ives Mini Mansion presented an exceptional aesthetic. The opportunity to engage with the owners and gain insights into its historical context was a significant enhancement to the experience. The seamless integration of historical preservation with contemporary amenities creates an ideal accommodation. Furthermore, the property's advantageous location, directly opposite a historic castle, provided an additional point of interest.
