Awesome spot
Our family enjoyed this home right on the water. Perfect for young families. Lots of toys, games, and kids activities on the property. The paddleboat was a big hit with the little kids. Great location in proximity to downtown, old market, and the zoo. Wonderful hosts. Would highly recommend. Regarding the zoo: we tried to go before school let out for the summer. The crowds were noticeably less than usual. Additionally, try to buy a season pass to your home zoo and use the reciprocal program for half off tickets. This particularly helps if you can only do half days because of nap times. Aquarium is fantastic.

Perfect family retreat
The stars of the show were honestly Harold and Barbara. My husband and I were traveling with our son and his daughter. It was our first trip with our granddaughter and we wanted her Easter to be memorable. Every question I posed was answered thoughtfully and with careful consideration of the fact we were traveling with a 3-year old. From restaurants, to activities, to playgrounds, they gave amazing advice and insight and practically planned our trip. But the next star in the constellation was the house! Though we had a full weekend planned, once we got to the house our granddaughter did not want to leave. Her eyes grew big at the sight of the toy room and the playscape and the stay unspooled perfectly, if not too quickly. The house was spotless and the kitchen very well equipped. It was a delightful experience from the moment we booked to the time we checked out.

Perfect home away from home
Great spot for a couple of days overnight in Omaha. Property feels like home as the hosts go overboard to stock the home with everything you need and more. Great fishing off their backyard dock and literally minutes away from downtown Omaha.

Wonderful property for family
The home was so well equipped with extra blankets, snacks, and indoor games for the kids. I was worried the older kids woild be bored because we were unable to enjoy being outside due the the drop in temperature while we were there, but the kids stayed in the basement, playing board games that the host provided. The home was clean and in a quiet neighborhood. We will definitely be staying there again.
