Ten stars!!!

A group of us visited Lincoln for a sporting event and had the pleasure to stay at this amazing house! The property was beautiful, fantastic rooms, perfect location, homemade 5 star breakfast every morning and the best hostess in the business. Every aspect of our stay was effortless, I will make sure to stay at this house every time I stay in Lincoln!

Great stay!

My wife and I met up with three couples for a concert in Lincoln. We all had a great stay; themed rooms are tastefully decorated, Lynette and her husband were great hosts! Enjoyed beverages before and after on their patio, a very laid back and pleasant setting!! Would definitely recommend a stay if you’re looking for accommodations for a large party, will be visiting again!!

Grateful

My family decided to stay at a VRBO as a family. We were in Lincoln for my fathers funeral. We were coming in from 5 different states and needed a home to laugh and grieve together. Lynette was more than we could have asked for. Her attention to detail is appreciated, her kindness is overwhelming. I can not begin to express our gratitude in this challenging situation! We look forward to our next visit.

Charming House and Host

We had 4 couples stay over the weekend. Our host Lynette was gracious and welcoming. We didn’t realize it was a B&B but since we had the whole house was not an issue. Our host lives in the basement so we enjoyed our privacy. Only drawback was the limited number of bathrooms (2 upstairs and 1 downstairs) and only 1 shower. There are plans to add another full bath shortly so may not be an issue. We will be back!
