Gorgeous and charming house with great location. We were able to navigate to all of our destinations with ease and enjoyed the quaint atmosphere of the property. Would love to visit again someday!!
Our stay in this home was exactly what we envisioned when we booked. The home and yard were clean, tidy and filled with charm! We hope to stay again in the future.
We came to town to visit our military son. It was the perfect location for the activities we did. Plenty of room to hang out in the house. Enjoyed the visit to Omaha.
This home was magnificent and truly made our holiday special! I would highly recommend it if visiting the area. It is extremely clean and the kitchen was well stocked to prepare almost anything. We had a fantastic time in this home!
The house was lovely. Everything we needed for hours stay in Omaha. Great location and easy access. Everyone had their own space along with a great area to visit and to eat together. The front porch was lovely as well. We will definitely be back.
This home was the perfect spot for a College World Series stay. Gayle was so easy to work with and accommodate our group. Only a few miles from the stadium. Hope yo and would definitely stay here again!
It was the perfect size and location for our family visit. My kids were in school virtually and were able to connect easily to the Internet. We took a short walk through the neighborhood for a school break and it was lovely.

Very nice and clean! Close to just about everything.
Had a great time with my brother and his family. Enjoyed the house. Gayle made us feel welcome and added little things around the house to make us feel at home. I would recommend this house!
My family had a wonderful time visiting Omaha. Gayle is very considerate and kind. This was my first time using VRBO. So glad I did and chose this home to stay in. It was close enough to Old Town and the Joslyn Museum.
The house made you feel like your at home. Very clean. My husband and i came back with some friends for a Huskers game. They loved the house. We will stay again
The house on Mayberry was welcoming and a pleasure to wake up in and to come home to.
We quickly learned the nuances of the home and settled right in. The quiet of the neighborhood and the comfort of the beds made waking delayed. Decorated for Christmas added an additional welcoming touch.
We hope to be back!

Sweet bungalow. Beautifully appointed. Hostess clearly thought of every detail and didn’t miss a thing. From kleenex to linens to wine openers to coffee makers! We never felt like we needed something that wasn’t already there. I loved this house and neighborhood. Can’t wait to come back.
This house was perfect for us. We travelled from Canada for a volleyball tournament and some of the parents stayed in the house together. It was more than equipped with everything we needed to cook meals for the kids and was a relief we didn't have to bring anything over the border because the house was stocked. It was centrally located for where we had to go and close to stores and restaurants. Gayle our host was excellent! She responded almost immediately when we had any questions and was very helpful. Highly recommend staying here :)
The owner was gracious and met us at the house since we asked. Everything was clear about use and how to leave the house. Clean, and beds were comfy. Considerate things like Kleenex in rooms. Safe neighborhood close to grocery store. Someone staying needs to know all bedrooms and bathrooms are on upper and basement levels. People with mobility issues would not be able to stay. Possibly needs to be more clear in info. We had a good stay and would recommend.

old craftsman charm
Quiet street. clean and well equipped. washer and dryer good. front and back porch. nice small backyard with grass. Everything great except A/C does not extend to the top floor
Loved the house! Booking and communication with the owner was smooth and seamless. This home is very centrally located to just about everything you want to do. It is a short three block walk to UNMC and a few minute walk to the black stone district which has great restaurants and and vibrant social scene that is great for couples or family.
Overall the house was well appointed with everything we needed for our stay. The neighborhood is very quiet and filled with lots of charming older homes. Would definitely book this one again if we are ever in Omaha.
Gayle was quickly responsive to questions/issues. She was also flexible about our schedule since we had no way to know if our wrestler would be eliminated the first day. We all agreed it was far superior to being in a hotel. Thanks again Gayle
This property is in a quiet and safe neighborhood not far from the market/capital district. (Less than a $10 Uber drive). This cozy bungalow house is very clean and well maintained. I wish the weather would have been nicer. It also has a cute back yard/outdoor sitting area. We would stay here again. My only complaint…. The furniture is outdated.

About the host
Hosted by Gayle
We love the charm of old homes and love to restore them to their original character. This home has been completely redone to make it a home that anyone would want to relax in.
Why they chose this property
A quiet retreat just minutes from all the great places Omaha is known for. Plenty of room to spread out. Full kitchen, comfortable beds, washer and dryer, and off-street parking: all the amenities you need for a nice day or evening in, but so close to everything going on in Omaha for all to enjoy.
What makes this property unique
This home is a cozy bungalow built in the 1920's and has been completely renovated throughout with a custom kitchen. The bathrooms are updated: one has the original clawfoot tub in it which is a deep soaker tub. The bedrooms are on the upper and lower level. Comfy beds with quality linens throughout. The fireplace is just what you need on our cold winter nights. The front porch is a great place to relax, and the privacy fence in the backyard gives you lots of privacy. On the deck I have a bistro table and in the yard a larger table for outdoor dining or simply hanging out. There is a piano in the home, games to play, internet, a chrome cast device, a DVD player, a fireplace, and cozy places to relax.
