Gorgeous Tiny House, Peaceful Hills, Amazing Views

Welcome to Prairie Blossom Tiny House! Discover the simple beauty and tranquility of Living Tiny while surrounded by soft, green hills. Sip a cup of coffee while gazing at greenery from the living room or back deck. Lounge in a hammock, meditate or write, explore the 80-acre property, or relax on the back deck by the outdoor fire pit. Enjoy a breath-taking view of the stars from the outdoor hot tub. Come in after enjoying nature and relax with a glass of wine in an elegant, modern tiny house. A perfect, peaceful get-away.

To watch a 2-minute video showcasing the space, go to my website (search "Green Hills Tiny Houses" online and it will come right up) and scroll to the bottom of the Home page. Or search Stephanie Bock Tiny House on Youtube and select "Finished Tiny House". This video gives a more accurate impression of the space than even pictures do :)

The entire footprint of this home is 12x32 (not including decks)--but it actually is quite spacious and has everything you need. Huge windows with beautiful views of the Nebraska countryside, fully equipped kitchen with stainless steel appliances, in-ceiling speakers, wifi, a Smart Projector w/ a 67" screen & a 32" Smart TV, large back deck, front deck, 3'x5' shower, washer/dryer, indoor fireplace (turned off during summer months), outdoor propane fire pit, oak floors, reclaimed barn wood accents throughout. All on a spacious property of rolling hills and spectacular views.

Since I was custom building Prairie Blossom for myself originally, I had to include a few luxuries and wish-items! My favorite features are: the heated floor throughout the bathroom and bedroom, the fire place, the big back deck/carport, in-ceiling speakers throughout the house, the electric fireplace by the master bed, the hardwood oak living room/kitchen floor, the reflective ceiling tiles (create an illusion of space and 'bigness'), the look of the storage stairs, the off-grid water system, the barn wood that I incorporated throughout the house, and the huge picture window in the living room. Transform the living room into a home movie theater with the Smart Projector (on which you can login with any streaming platform to which you subscribe) and a 67" screen so you can enjoy large-screen movies and entertainment on the downstairs level!

My desire for everyone who stays in my home is first, that you feel valued and valuable, and second, that you feel and enjoy the peace that I feel in this space.

The entire tiny house and immediate surrounding area is yours! For food: You have access to all kitchenware and spices, condiments in the fridge, coffee/coffee makers, etc. There may be a few things in the pantry and cupboards - feel free to help yourself to any of that too.

We also have an "In-(Tiny)-House" Coffee Shop, equipped with an espresso-maker, french press, drip coffee, and pour-over--in case you would like to make a fancy coffee in the morning! Ground and whole beans are provided (dark and medium roasts).

A deep-cleaning of the entire tiny house is done between each and every guest stay. That means:
-Fresh, clean linens are always used
-The furniture (chairs/couch/lounging area) is sanitized and cleaned
-All touched surfaces throughout the house are cleaned (every surface but the walls)

The Property:

Our property is so peaceful! Away from the city, away from the stress. You can see the stars at night and listen to the birds chirp in the morning. As a guest here, you'll have access to the entire property: 80 acres! Whilst a guest here, you have full access to the entire property--except where the cows are (in the summer months). So feel free to go exploring! Let loose and be free! Hike the big hill by my house; the view is truly unparalleled. Or you may just prefer to sit on the back deck and absorb the lovely views from there, or walk the trail circling two acres of the property. There is a lot of farmland and hills surrounding us, and a lot of beautiful prairie grass surrounding the tiny house. Walking the trails through the trees is beautiful. Such a tranquil, remote setting!

Prairie Blossom is one of three total tiny houses on the South side of our 80 acre property, and one lone tiny house is located by itself on the North side. On the South side, strategically-placed sections of privacy fence effectively screen the other tiny houses from your view, and each has its own campfire area. Each house also has its own distinctive space, so privacy is upheld well.

Specifically, Prairie Blossom House is about 150 feet east of another tiny house (I call it my "Teeny Tiny Cabin") which is also routinely rented out. Prairie Blossom is also about 100 feet south of another cabin which is rented as well - so it may or may not be occupied during your stay. Strategically-placed sections of privacy fence effectively screen this and the Teeny Tiny house from view. These three cabins form sort of a big triangle, sitting on a secluded 3-acre area, each at least 100 feet from the other and separated with privacy fences.

During the late Fall and Winter months, this will be a peaceful oasis with virtually nobody else around. During the temperate months of the year, my groundskeeper may be around, improving the land and property during the day, and the farmer tenant may be tending his cows in the neighboring field, etc.

On-site Activities:

Bonfires: The fire-pit across from my house is for your exclusive use and enjoyment! Chairs, side tables, and wine glass holders are provided.

Lawn games: I have a selection of lawn games for summer fun: Corn hole, Bocce ball, Giant Jenga, a Soccer and Football, Big Dice (for Yard Yahtzee and 19 other dice games), Croquet, and Kube (this one is super fun!).

Hot Tub: Enjoy an incredible sunset from the bliss of a steaming hot tub! If it's a clear night, wait until the stars emerge, and marvel at the most stunning display of stars you will ever see! There are bound to be a few shooting stars in the mix too, so watch for those.

Fire pit on the Deck: Relax out on the large back deck with a glass of wine in front of the (propane fueled) fire pit! Lay in the hammock and star-gaze, and just enjoy the sounds of nature around you.

Hiking: Hike along the trail circling the property, or go off the trails and hike the hills on your own! Or, Ponca State Park has excellent hiking.

Grill: Make a juicy steak and crisp veggies on the grill!

Picnics: Use the outdoor picnic table/benches, or grab a blanket and find one of countless spots on the ground! Picnicking whilst taking in the panoramic views on the top of the huge hill would be a windy, yet memorable highlight!

Bird and animal-watching: We have many varieties of birds and animals on the property, specifically in the grove on the North side of the house. Also, on the South side of the house, the 21 acres there is being newly converted into a bird and wildlife sanctuary via the C.R.P. program! Currently, many varieties of native wildflowers and trees are being planted, so we will see which birds and animals come to visit this habitat!

Off-roading: Bring your ATV for the property and low-maintenance roads (there are plenty!).

Nature-gazing in comfort: Enjoy the sweeping views of hills and nature from inside the house, without fighting mosquitoes or sweltering or frigid weather! Take in the beauty, minus the elements that can make it uncomfortable. This was a main goal of mine when designing this house--so enjoy!

Snow activities: Bring your snowmobile or snowshoes during the winter; the place is perfect for those types of activities!
The Surrounding Area/Off-site Activities:

The town of Ponca is an 8-minute drive East of my house, and there you will find a grocery store, a pizza place, a great burger place, a gym, post-office, pharmacy, doctor's office, etc. .If you want a larger town, South Sioux City, NE and Sioux City, IA are a 30-minute drive East. Population of about 120,000--so lots of shopping, eating places, etc, in that area. Vermilion is another medium-sized town that is about 20 minutes West of us. I have specifics and details about different places nearby which you will find in the Tiny House Manual when you arrive at the tiny house, and also in this guidebook I've created.

Ponca State Park: Ponca State Park is only a 10-minute drive away, and I highly recommend visiting! It has some fantastic hiking the trails! Beautiful, regardless of the time of year! I've also seen people biking along the roads in the park.

Canoe/fishing: 1.5 miles from my tiny house is Powder Creek Lake--which is great for fishing or kayaking/canoeing. And I do have a canoe on the property for your use! You will need to have a vehicle with a hitch (1 7/8” ball ) to transport the canoe on my utility trailer to and from the lake. But just let me know in advance and I will get it set up for you! Also, I don’t know if you can ice-fish on it in the winter; I would assume so!


Transportation to the property:
We are out in the country, so you’ll need your own transportation! During seasons when it is very wet, it is a good idea to have a 4-wheel drive vehicle to traverse the 4 miles of gravel road leading to my house. The road tends to become quite muddy and can be tricky to drive in, so 4-wheel drive is best if there is a massive amount of snow melting, or after days of heavy rains. There is an alternate route that's easier to drive in this case. Additionally, snow is usually cleared out by the city fairly quickly after snow falls, but occasionally they have waited a day or so to do so. This can make it difficult to drive in the meantime in a vehicle without medium to high ground clearance. 99% of the time, driving is not an issue. However, contact me if you have any concerns. Before your stay, I will be in communication with you about any potential weather issues and give details about the terrain/alternate routes.
Early Check-in/Late Check-out: If another guest is not immediately checking in before or
Guests can expect to find free WiFi and a Smart TV with a DVD player. Other standard amenities include a kitchen, a washing machine, and a fireplace.

Spent an idyllic week here on a solo retreat. Days at nearby Ponca State Park, afternoons/evenings on the deck or walking the property's trail through tallgrass and saying hello to the grazing cattle. Surprisingly spacious for a "tiny house" and extremely well appointed - full kitchen, comfy seating areas, a soft, cozy blanket everywhere you turn. Hot tub a perfect way to end the evening. 3 loft beds, all with very comfortable mattresses and easy for even this middle-aged soul to access. Serene, quiet, and beautiful space for reading, writing, contemplating. I'll be back!

Didn't Want To Leave

I stayed a night here with my niece and one of her friends for my niece's 16th birthday. My niece wanted to go camping, but I didn't think either of could handle sleeping outside. This place was perfect. It had the perks of being secluded enough to where we could enjoy the peaceful outdoors along with the comfort of being inside a luxurious house. The girls loved the various things to do. They were up until 6:00 in the morning; hanging out by the fire pit, relaxing in the hot tub, watching movies, and playing boardgames. I rarely saw either of the teenagers on their phones during our stay. The girls were grateful for the gift, but disappointed we were only staying for one day. I promised we would come back, and intend to keep my promise. I highly recommend staying here!!!

Beautiful, quiet retreat. A perfect place to reflect and reset.

What a beautiful place! Everything was wonderful! The space was clean and tidy, the views were perfect and the instructions on how to use the amenities and check in/out were clear and concise! I found I brought way more than I needed to with me as my host provided plenty of breakfast options and even baking supplies too! The space was quiet and comfortable. Be sure to enjoy the prayer trail across the driveway from the cabin. There were plenty of comfortable places to read and relax. I would highly recommend this to everyone! This is a great getaway for a solo trip, a relaxing girls trip, or a family!

It’s the little things…

…that matter, and Stephanie (our host) makes sure the little things count! She’s incredibly responsive - best we’ve ever experienced in our 20+ VRBO-like experiences. Her tiny house includes all the amenities you look for on vacay (comfortable beds, stocked kitchen, outdoor & indoor space) - and the “extras” that make for luxury - like the expresso machine, Bluetooth speakers, hot tub under a starry sky, fireplaces indoors & out, oil diffusers, and so much more. We hiked at nearby state park, came back to the house to make dinner, watch a movie on a projected screen & end our evening with a little time in the hot tub. Stephanie has thought of all the tiny things that make tiny houses & adventures feel totally amazing. We highly recommend & will be back to take in the wide open Nebraska visitas! Thank you, Stephanie!

Wonderful tiny house

This tiny house had everything for the most cozy stay ever. Blankets, everything you need to cook in the kitchen, hot tub, and a beautiful little Christmas tree to make it perfectly festive in the winter. We brought our own snowshoes and cross country skis and there were plenty of fields to hike through. We could not have been happier with how comfy and cozy this place was and how much space we had. We honestly wanted to stay more nights and never return to our normal lives.

It was easy to access the property. The Welcome Manual was extremely useful. The host provided some breakfast food, coffee, and a complimentary bottle of wine. The property does use a composting tiolet, so that took a couple uses to get comfortable with but worked out to not be an issue for us. There are two large decks for relaxing and a fire pit. Overall a great host, beautiful property, and we can not wait to go back!!!
