Affordable Accommodations Near Prairie Rose State Park, Harlan

Our newly remodeled split-entry "Hilltop Hospitality House" was my childhood home. Located one hour from Omaha in the lovely Loess Hills of Iowa, there are beautiful lake and valley views. With one queen bed, two double beds, two twin beds, one sofa sleeper, a full kitchen, two full baths, laundry, a spacious open floor plan for large groups, and a large deck overlooking my friendly hometown, this is a great space for groups and family gatherings. A nice studio apartment above the garage rents separately.

- "Loved the house. Great layout, very clean, great view. Would love to come back." - "This was a vacation my kids will remember. My son is already asking when we'll get to go back to Iowa. Thank you so much for your hospitality!" - "Our family stayed 3 nights for a relaxing get away. My oldest daughter and her husband came from Omaha (with their 3.5 and 2 yr old kids). We traveled from eastern Iowa along with our 17 and 22 year old kids). There was room for all of us! The view off the deck was a outstanding! Nice outdoor space in the backyard with a stone fire pit, chairs and a picnic table. Large yard (approx 2-3 acres). House is located at the end of a dead end street in a quiet neighborhood.The property is adjacent to a park which includes a disc golf course, pond with a walking path all the way around, and a very nice updated playground area for kids. My son and son-in-law were able to catch quite a few fish off the docks at the pond (playground and pond located down the hill less than 5 minute walk from the house). Kitchen is well equipped with utensils and cookware. We prepared most of our meals at the house, other than ordering pizza one night. (Pizza from Town and Country Store was pretty good for gas station pizza 😉). Overall a great place to relax and spend time with family!"
