We had a wonderful stay! The property was perfect for our family, friends and the kids were kept happily busy with the excellent assortment of both indoor and outdoor activities provided. Parking was convenient and short rides to Hay Market, University of NE and the zoo. Overall, a great place to be with family.

We met family and friends for the Nebraska Volleyball day and had a great time.

The location was convenient for travel to the University. We had a great stay. The neighborhood was quiet and there was plenty of beds and seating in the house for our group. Would definitely stay here again. Thanks!
