Another great stay
We had another fantastic and relaxing stay! The cabin provided a great way to decompress after the holidays, sitting mesmerized by the warm, crackling fireplace. Top on our list to recommend to friends and family.

Quintessential Nebraska getaway
Idyllic location on the Platte River. An Authentic experience and modern comforts combine to showcase the beauty of the Platte Valley. Close to Kearney’s endless resources and far enough removed to give guests a tranquil spot to rest, revive, and celebrate all at once.

Location!!!
I travel to Kearney for work quite a bit. This place was perfect for my family. It is so close to town yet you feel like you are in the middle of nowhere. The seclusion was perfect for my family and I. We enjoyed our stay and walking the trails throughout the property! 5 stars for sure!

Crane watching trip
This is a quiet and cozy spot. We spent all day hiking trails and watching sandhill cranes. It was great to come back to build a warm fire, cook a nice meal in the fully equipped kitchen, and get a good night's sleep!

Far enough off the beaten path, but close enough to the city for conveniences. This cabin was perfect for our weekend getaway! Very clean! The fireplace was a fantastic place to stay warm during the chilly weather! Perfect, perfect, perfect!

Easter dinner with our UNK students
The location and property was perfect for us to have a home away from home Easter dinner. The weather was windy but with the setup of the property we were able to be outside the enjoy the sun all day as well as a beautiful sunset! We had an added bonus of crane watching as they fly right over this location.

Great Family Trip
Our stay was perfect! The check-in process was very easy, and the owners were great about communicating. The cabin was so much fun. My kids always had plenty to do whether they were inside or outside. The location is close to town and everything is just about 10 minutes away. My four year old kept saying this place was amazing and she rated it a 20 out of 10. This is a great place to get away from the city and spend some quality family time.
