The kitchen was fully equipped, and we really enjoyed the wood‑burning fireplace — the stacked firewood was such a thoughtful touch. We stayed over Christmas to visit family, and the property was perfect for letting our dogs roam the acreage. We were close to town to get out to go eat or shopping.

We enjoyed spending Thanksgiving here. Inside, we liked the hunting decor and open concept of the cabin design. Outside, we liked to walk the trails and enjoy the deer, squirrels and birds that visited the property. Our host was very friendly and always quickly responded to any inquiry that we had.

We found sand on the main floor throughout the cabin. After that, I swept and kept sweeping throughout our stay. NE is a sandy place. Thank you for being honest about the communication. Lighting could be improved throughout the cabin. We enjoy reading books, and I needed to be able to see in the bathroom to insert a contact lens. Lastly, the mirror on the bathroom door needs to be permanently fixed. Thank you, we found this location ideal for us.

Nice but weird

Beautiful Cabin. But.... No Closets...No Hooks...No Coat rack. Had to lay our suitcases on the floor and hang clothing on the stair rail. Nice Queen Bed upstairs...but beware older folks, you have to go downstairs to pee at night ! Nice shower. Nice dishes. Great fireplace.Dining table nice...but no light above it; too dark to play cards. TV "antenna " work good...once we figured it out ! ( input which when u change channels...count to 10 to wait for channel to "come in". Instructions woild have been Nice !. Fyi teflon coming off in sauce pan. Should listi g not have to say " No WiFi"??Lovely to see and hear Sandhill Cranes fly overhead.

Crane Adventure

Went to Kearney to watch the crane migration. Incredible experience. The property is ideally located as it is in the heart of crane viewing. Everything relating to the property was as advertised and very good. If I had one suggestion it would be to enhance cell service.

Cozy Cabin and Cranes

The cabin was so clean and cozy with a gorgeous stone fireplace and comfortable furnishings. We were visiting the area to view the Sandhill crane migration, and their flight pattern was right over the cabin. The cabin was close to town but seemed remote.

Awesome cablin

Our visit was for a funeral. We picked this location because we had to bring our fur baby. We didn’t want to stay in a hotel in case he barked while we were attending the funeral. The location was easy to access just on the outskirts of town. Quite little neighborhood.
