We loved our stay!! Such a clean, cosy, and relaxing venue. We loved the view from the big picture window. It was very easy to get around when making our way into downtown. We will definitely remember this place the next time we make our way back to Omaha. Thank you for letting us stay in this beautiful home away from home!

July 4th weekend 2024

Great location, easy drive to any of the amenities you would want to visit in Omaha. Hostess was excellent, nothing was too much for her, she sent comprehensive instructions before we arrived that were very easy to follow, gain access and use the property. Great view over the water and neighbors were friendly. I would absolutely recommend both this property and our host! Thank you for helping to make a great vacation.

Nice place just outside the city

My family of 4 spent a long weekend here visiting family in Omaha. The Trip to downtown Omaha was quick and easy. Then coming back to a place with a beautiful view was a nice way of relieving after a day of hiking around in the cold. So many windows to her in the sun was so nice sitting the cold winter weekend. House was spacious but cozy. Beds were comfortable. House was immaculate and contact with the owner was flawless. I had a couple questions and she answered almost immediately. Would definitely stay again, would like to visit during spring or summer.

Nice place

It filled our needs. Nice enough place. Did have some minor cleaning issues. Few cob webs here and there. Nothing worth throwing a fit about.

Response from VrboOwner on 15 Oct 2023
Thanks for your feedback Brian! A little feedback of my own… I was disappointed to learn of all the mud/paw stains all over the duvet cover from your dogs. As a dog owner myself, I know how hard it is to find accommodations that allow dogs but, it’s situations like this that make it hard to rent to guests with dogs. Just so you know, the stains on the duvet did not come out & I had to replace. Unfortunately this was brought to my attention by my cleaning staff after my initial review. Also, after speaking with my cleaning staff, it should also be noted that the cobwebs you are referring were on the deck which, for September on the lake is quite usual. Thank you

Labor Day Getaway

The property was nice, well kept and clean. All the amenities provided and great location. The only negative about this place is no dryer and no big pots to cook with. My husband does all the cooking and he didn’t have a big enough pot to make spaghetti sauce for his lasagna…: lol! If you want to call that a negative.

Hi Kathy! Thank you for the 5 star review! I love the idea for a bigger pot for sauce! I’ll put that on my next shopping list! In regards to the dryer, it’s right next to the washer in the kitchen behind the double doors. Take care & hope to see you again soon!

Beautiful

Very nice place to stay. Close to everything we wanted to do. It is on the lake but really not access to it. The dock was clocked. The beach isn’t anywhere close. We didn’t go for the water this trip. It was fine for us. There is only 1 tv in living room. You do hear planes throughout day and night. Very much enjoyed our stay. We will book again if we go that direction.

Billie, Thank you for your 5 star rating! I’m sorry you weren’t able to find the beach access, there are multiple locations around the lake and one is just a few blocks from the house. Next time I will be sure to provide you with a map so you can fully enjoy our beautiful lake! Take care, Sam

Beautifully Appointed Home!

Samantha’s home is beautifully furnished and arranged in a comfortable manner. The view of the dock outside is wonderful during your morning coffee and evening sunset. The kitchen is easily accessible, and we spent a substantial part of our trip grilling on the BBQ & enjoying the patio furniture. Samantha was extremely responsive and accommodating, including answering my questions about local fishing. If you’re not familiar with this area, we found Frank Stoysich Deli & Meat Market to be a great place to buy goodies to cook at the house, and Brother Sebastian’s Steakhouse for a really amazing ambiance of an old mission church and good food. Will definitely stay here again if in the area! Thanks, Samantha, you are a great hostess! We had a GREAT TIME!
