- "The house was cozy and very welcoming. Sharon was very helpful throughout the stay, offering us recommendations about what to do and answering any questions we had. She even had music playing when we arrived. The house was very clean and organized and had everything we needed. It was only about a 15 minute drive to Omaha, which was perfect for our relaxed mini vacation to the city. The only downside was the road to get to the house. It was a very steep one lane road. This wasn’t an issue, but definitely a surprise to us. We’d 100% stay here again, steep road and all!"

Take it easy at this unique getaway, central to Council Bluffs area. Relaxing and private upstairs guest house all to yourself. Kitchenette and bedroom studio style with tv, couch and table plus ample parking space.

- "We loved it!" - "The room is adorable and clean. The host definitely thought of everything to make you feel at home. It felt like stepping back in time! The stairs to get to the room were the old fashion wooden twisty stairs and the bathroom/kitchen had old fashion sinks. I loved that! The surrounding neighborhoods are also beautiful to drive through. I had a lovely stay!" - "Love this loft. I too live in a historic type home and this little cottage is just perfect. The only thing I didn’t bring was soap and there was none in the shower so that would have made it even better! The stairs are steep but they add to the charm. Very clean and bed was super comfy!"

It was a great location-easy to access everything and very quiet." - "This listing is just perfect. The description and photos are spot on. Being unfamiliar with Omaha/Council Bluffs area I didn't realize when booking just how close this location is to the downtown Omaha area. We were conveniently just minutes from the bridges to downtown but felt a million miles away from the traffic. This home was the cleanest rental I have ever stayed in. Absolutely spotless.

- "The property was so cute and clean!" - "My sister and I met up at the halfway point between our respective homes. This was a perfect spot- if the weather were nice we could have walked to parks, landmarks, and convenience stores. As it was, everything we did was just a few minutes drive away. Quiet neighborhood, friendly neighbors, off street parking. Good assortment of cooking items, clean linens. The beds were both very soft... perfect for anyone who likes soft mattresses but were a little rough on our old lady bodies! Overall a great experience. Thank you!"
