Simply Perfect!
This place was just what we needed to prepare for our Son's wedding. We were 13 hours from home with so much prep to do. We did not get to enjoy the property as much as we would have liked because we were so busy with wedding things. This home gave everyone plenty of room to gather and visit. We are a large family and they accommodated everything we needed. The kitchen is very large and was much appreciated to prep wedding foods and cake! We will be staying here again when we come to visit the kids. Thanks so much for the best home away from home and all of the extra adds that made it extra special. See you soon!

Lovely country setting
The hosts were amazingly responsive and welcoming. Cute and spacious. I could work remotely (good wifi) and had plenty of time to visit family. Close to Omaha. I will be back.

A comfortable stay down under
We enjoyed our time at the this basement apartment. It was clean, spacious, warm (we were there at yearend) and well-stocked. Darlene and James were great hosts, checking in with us before and during our stay and as we were departing. And the location was perfect for our long weekend plans - less than a 1/2 hour to downtown Omaha and the Henry Doorly Zoo, and less than an hour from Preparation Canyon and the Loess Hills Scenic Byway.

Exactly what we needed
My husband and I were in the area for a family funeral. We had planned to stay in a hotel but found this apartment at the last minute. We are so glad we did. It was just what we needed-comfort, location, price, & hospitality of the hosts. Communication was top notch, prompt and friendly. The apt was a home away from home. So comfortable especially after the stress of our trip. Clean, spacious, quiet, close to highway and easy access to neighboring communities. I will definitely stay here again. Highly reccommend.
