We had a relaxing country stay. Rhonda was very helpful and our grandkids enjoyed petting the horses. There are a lot of options in the game room and plenty of room for yard games and activities.

A clean and comfortable place to stay. The owner messaged throughout my stay to make sure me and my family were getting settled and found everything we needed. She created a binder with a lot of the local options for food and entertainment. My kids loved the game room! Overall a great experience!

First class country

This is my second time staying in the Red House at Crystal Lake. The home is clean, comfortable and has everything you need for a relaxing stay. My husband and I enjoyed sitting outside watching the clouds roll by. Slow and easy walks around the property. The sunsets are amazing. We had so much fun in the gameroom. Turned on our Bluetooth and played games for hours. I fully enjoyed giving the horses scraches and cuddles. They are such sweet horses. Rhonda is an amazing host, she truly takes care and has so pride while sharing this wonderful property. If you are passing by or need a getaway from the busy city life, we highly recommend staying here! We absolutely love this quite country home.

Absolutely Wonderful !!!

It was everything we were looking for and more! Rhonda was extremely communicative and we arrived and checked in with no problem. For a country setting, I was completely thrilled with how clean and dust free everything was. She had planted beautiful flowers outside and made sure that the home was stocked with everything you can imagine! I travel to VRBO‘s all across the country for various sports with my children and this one exceeded my expectations by far. I have gotten used to throwing in “my certain needs” and when I got there, I laughed because everything I had brought with me she already had supplied.( Including an array of Keurig coffee flavors to choose from!) She also left fresh eggs, homemade burritos and a refrigerator stocked full of bottled water. The game room was amazing for the children. Air conditioned, and everything was top-notch. My one surprise, which I loved, was at certain times of the year she puts three of her horses in the pasture behind the house. Being an animal lover, I thoroughly enjoyed visiting with them every morning (and sneaking them carrot and watermelon treats). We could not have asked for more. We were fortunate to meet Rhonda and her family on the last day and wished that they had come by sooner. We thoroughly enjoyed them. We will definitely stay here again next year when we come back for Omaha’s Slumpbuster baseball tournament!
