Stayed at this home while visiting the area. Very nice house. Very cleanly and beautiful with plenty of space for our large family to move around in! Kids loved the foosball table and gave them something different to do. The neighborhood is nice and quiet. We did not have any issues and the communication with the host was wonderful. Emily was very responsive. Would stay again if in the area!

Enjoyable stay in this comfortable, quiet well-equipped home

We came to Omaha from out of state to visit relatives and brought our dog along. This homey, spacious rental had everything we needed, in a quaint older neighborhood. It made the perfect home base to hang out with family. We especiallt enjoyed the large screened-in patio.

love this place! The open area to gather and eat in the kitchen, dining and living area works great to come visit grandparents in the area. this is our 3rd visit and the screened area is a wonderful bonus! My only wish is that it had one more bedroom full of bunkbeds because the grand kids keep on coming in our family and I hate to outgrow the place! Emily is the best at communicating! If you book this one you will not be disappointed!

Perfect!

Two dads and three hockey teens traveled from Colorado to Omaha for their annual hockey camp. Instead of doing hotel rooms this year, we lucked out and found this property. It was perfect for the boys to have their own space and the Dad‘s to also have a space to chill out after long days. All of our interactions with the owner were wonderful, quick and easy, and we couldn’t be happier. Hopefully we can stay here again next year, Thanks for being a great host!

Wonderful stay, great for families

We had a wonderful stay here. Emily was incredibly kind and helpful. This was our first experience traveling with our 10 month old and she was very helpful and this place was perfect for our whole family. It is very clean. The location was convenient to get to downtown and the Zoo. We would stay here again and recommend it to anyone.

Nice stay. Easy to find, in a nice neighborhood, don’t let the industrial area you drive through scar you 😃 great host who communicated well with us. We booked it due to proximity to zoo and it all worked out great. The basement and enclosed patio were great bonuses that helped the grandkids unwind and play.

Sunset Sanctuary!

My family absolutely loved our stay at Emily's sunset sanctuary! Its a beautifully restored mid-century modern home with all the amenities, and plenty of space for family and friends to gather. Centrally located near downtown Ralston just off 72nd street and close to I-80, you can be anywhere in the Omaha area in 15-20 minutes. Fantastic outdoor space with the covered patio, lots of light, all in a peaceful and quiet neighborhood. Would definitely stay here again next time we're in town!
