This was by far one of the best, it was in a great location, we almost didn’t want to leave the house, so much room for the kids, if we come up this way again we most definitely will stay here again, only thing that we had go wrong was the fire alarm went off at 7am and woke everyone up but no fire anywhere than it went off one more time than stopped and this was the only thing but no fault to the owner I’m sure it was a glitch, this house has everything you need

Clean and comfortable home, but check in and check out information could have been provided.

Overall, this was a clean and comfortable home for us to stay at! Very quiet and safe neighborhood as well. One piece of feedback I would give is that check in instructions were not provided until requested, and there was also no packet of information for WiFi or how to check out.

Wonderful Stay in Omaha

The house is as advertised! Very clean and plenty of space for my family! We had expected 6 people to travel but only 4 made the trip so this house was PLENTY of space and would have easily accommodated 6 people. Two kitchens and two washer and dryers is a nice bonus if you need that! Check in process was flawless and property owner returned my questions very quickly!! We would definitely stay again when coming back to Omaha!!

Nice location, plenty of space

I stayed at this property with a friend and my daughter while doing college visits. The house was clean and very nice in a family friendly neighborhood on a cul-de-sac. There is more than enough space and everything is comfortable. We enjoyed our stay.

Wonderfully clean home! We were very happy to have access to the attached garage, there was a driveway as well for off street parking. Fenced in back yard allowed the kids to run off some energy. Cute patio to sit outside. A few games were available but most were a little too advanced for our little ones. We moved the glass tables in the living room off to the side to avoid any accidents with the kids. Close to the zoo which was the primary reason for our trip. This was our first VRBO so we felt a little lost with the check in and out processes. I did not get check in information until the day we were supposed to arrive (driving from MN) and didn’t receive any information about what was expected of us at check out. When I attempted to contact for check in, the response was quick. We were also warned ahead of time that someone would be coming to work on the fence. So responses were timely when asked, but no upfront information.

Great Getaway

Loved our two night stay! Very clean and lots of space. It was just a few minutes away from downtown and the zoo. The host was very friendly and helpful during our stay. The kitchen had everything we needed and there was a nice fenced in backyard for our kids to run around. Would highly recommend and would book again!

Nice place

The house is very clean, comfortable and has plenty of space. The location is in a quiet neighborhood, very central and provides quick access to different parts of the city. The host/manager answered all our questions although, a couple of times, took a little longer than expected. Overall, we enjoyed our quick stay and would definitely recommend this rental.

Close to UNMC

The property overall was fine, but the kitchen was poorly equipped for an extended stay that involved cooking. Cleaning products were minimal. No top sheet on one of the beds, just a fitted sheet, blanket and comforter. No book with rules or information about garbage/recycle days, etc. Host was not very responsive.

Amazing house close to the action

We stayed in this home for a long weekend in October. It was my family of 4 (two adults, two kids), and the house was incredible. Very clean and well maintained. It was close to the zoo (our main interest) and the downtown parks. There was a HyVee supermarket close by and we cooked breakfast and dinners in the home. There were games to play - got to teach the kids cribbage, two HUGE tv's, comfortable seating and really nice beds. Showers had body wash, shampoo and conditioner, and soft towels. The home was very spacious, nicely decorated and we would love to come back and stay in the future. It had a nice backyard, but we never had the chance to play outside this trip.
