Beautiful home! The theme was actually pretty cool, it had no bearing on choosing to stay there, but the wife and kids thought it was cool. Would stay again, clean and comfortable.

This is a wonderfully unique home with delightful surprises at every turn. The attention to detail is amazing and thoughtful consideration is evident everywhere. Loved the fire pit in the wonderful large yard and this location has easy access to restaurants, businesses and the interstate. I most definitely would stay there again if in the area.

Great Local Rental

The house was wonderful! Well stocked and super cute decor! The master bed was so comfy! Loved having the covered porch. Its close to the center of town so nothing is too far away. We stay in Lincoln often and even learned some new restaurants from this home! :)

Cozy & Quiet

The house was beautiful and more than equipped for our weekend stay. The owner was quick to respond to any inquiries we had. The aesthetic spans every corner of the house & we even got a giggle out of a family of vultures that happened to be staying in the tree out back while we were there LOL We absolutely loved it, & we will definitely be looking to book again.

Fun and unique place!

This place is really a trip. It was a special treat to have such a unique house while visiting relatives in Lincoln. The only thing I would add to the listing is pictures of the second bedroom (which is also quite nice!). I think it is clear in the pictures that the master bedroom is actually a loft and is open to the living area downstairs. So you have to be pretty comfortable with your housemates!
