Our 3 day stay at this lovely property was perfect! We had a fantastic stay. The home was spotless; beautifully decorated and had everything we needed (plus much more!). The location was perfect - close to everything but peaceful and quiet. Morning coffee and suppers on the deck overlooking the water was heaven. The host and hostess were super responsive and made check-in super easy. Without a doubt or second thought we would stay here again.

Pat and family exemplify the best guests that a host could hope for. Very friendly and open to communicate. What more praise can we give than our home was in better shape after they left than before they entered. We would love for them to come back again.

We stayed here as a family of five with three young kids and had a great experience. We rented the house while attending the Ironman race, and it was the perfect distance from both the transition area and the finish line.The house was well-stocked with everything we needed and had plenty to do for both nice weather and rainy days. The layout worked very well for our family, with comfortable bedrooms and bathrooms and plenty of space for meals and gathering together.The new composite deck was a nice feature, with lots of outdoor seating, and our kids especially enjoyed the playground. The location was beautiful, and the neighbors were very friendly.We would definitely stay here again.

Great mini vacation

We stayed in the area for just a couple of nights, and took the kids (4 and 2) to the zoo and downtown Tacoma. Great house with lots of toys, and the back deck was a great place for dinner, too. Really happy with the stay!

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.

Family Weekend

We enjoyed the location. Easy drive to all the activities we wanted but still tucked away from the busyness. We appreciated being able to prepare our own meals and the kitchen offered all the appliances, utensils, etc we needed. The deck provided a great place to hang out as a family. Communication was excellent from hosts.
