Fantastic. My grand girls loved it. They did not want to leave.
True to pictures. They had anything you could need. Very clean and relaxing. We spent a lot on deck watching the grandkids playing. Not far from the Zoo which it is a must to go see. I will recommend to anyone to stay there.

The hosts are gracious and very quick with communication. The property is as well maintained as any I’ve seen. Careful attention has been paid to every detail. The hosts thought of everything and provided above and beyond what we needed. We are repeat visitors and hope to return again.

Great Family Time
The hosts have several added amenities to make the stay comfortable and fun! From the assortment of themed dishes to choose from for each meal to indoor and outdoor entertainment options. Breakfast on the deck with the beautiful view was enjoyed by all. The beds were comfortable and the house is spacious. We had 3 couples and the house allowed us each our own bathroom. The host was very responsive to any questions we had. We would definitely stay again!

Perfect home away from home
Great spot for a couple of days overnight in Omaha. Property feels like home as the hosts go overboard to stock the home with everything you need and more. Great fishing off their backyard dock and literally minutes away from downtown Omaha.

Great mini vacation
We stayed in the area for just a couple of nights, and took the kids (4 and 2) to the zoo and downtown Tacoma. Great house with lots of toys, and the back deck was a great place for dinner, too. Really happy with the stay!

Perfect getaway location
We had the best time staying at this house with our two young children. The house had everything we needed and more, and the owners were hospitable and easy to work with. Easy access to the zoo, Children’s Museum, and Old Market. We enjoyed Omaha, but the amenities (and toys!) at the house made our vacation a real 10/10. Would certainly stay here again.

Wonderful property for family
The home was so well equipped with extra blankets, snacks, and indoor games for the kids. I was worried the older kids woild be bored because we were unable to enjoy being outside due the the drop in temperature while we were there, but the kids stayed in the basement, playing board games that the host provided. The home was clean and in a quiet neighborhood. We will definitely be staying there again.
