The space:
Our “Retreat” is located in a very quiet area just west of historic Florence - just north of downtown Omaha.
According to lifelong residents, the entire neighborhood was an orchard many years ago. We have one of the original apple trees that produce thousands of tart and juicy apples every August!
There are numerous fast food establishments nearby as well as restaurants, grocery stores and pharmacies! Many shopping centers and attractions are between 12 and 20 minutes as we are 2 miles from Interstate 680. Even though we are 11 minutes from Eppley Airport, we rarely hear or notice planes overhead.
