About this property

Farmhouse - Hattie’s 1898 Homestead

Bring the whole family and relax in this peaceful environment. Whether you are here to experience the crane migration, the state or county fair, a national or local trap shoot, or to visit family, this home will give you a comfortable place to rest during your stay. Still owned by the same family who homesteaded this farmland in the late 1800's, this amazing home has been completely updated and remodeled. It boasts all the modern conveniences, but with the charm and character of history, including some pieces of early 1900 furniture. This peaceful four bedroom home is located 19 miles from Grand Island, 12 from Hastings, and six from Doniphan. Close to wherever you need to go, but surrounded by nature with an abundance of wildlife, including deer and birds

A Nebraska Treat

Seven of us slogged from various parts of the country to witness the Sandhill Crane migration and enjoy one another’s company. Hattie’s farmhouse was the perfect site for both. It was clean, comfortable, spacious and welcoming. The kitchen was well-equipped and the whole set up of the house made conversation and visiting easy and rich. Jeff, the host, was very considerate and kind, especially when dealing with the challenges that arose when the area lost power due to ice and high winds. The house, the birds, the attentiveness of our host, and the secluded beauty of the region made for a truly memorable visit that we hope to repeat in the near future.

An Amazingly Quiet and Peaceful Getaway

I have rented a lot of VRBO's and this one takes the #1 spot. First, it's steeped in over 100 years of history, which Jeff is happy to share with you. The house is adorned in both modern and time-period accurate decor. They have gone to great lengths to share the farm's history and their respect for our military. They had everything we needed. We only had to leave to get food. Fortunately, there are grocery stores 10 miles in either direction. I look forward to going back and spending more time here.

Home Away From Home

This was the location of our bi-annual family vacation. It felt like home for the Southern family as well as the Northern family. Super clean and just the right size for all of us. The perfect place to relax, do some sightseeing and visit in a peaceful setting.

Beautiful homestead!

We really enjoyed all the space this home has to offer! Some highlights included 3 bathrooms, plenty of seating in the kitchen plus nice outdoor seating options- all comfortable. Kitchen was laid out nicely with a chart for where to find things, good pots/pans- great for breakfast, dishwasher and story highlighting the history of the home/family. Host was very friendly and quick with all communication- everything was clean and comfortable; convenient check in and check out process.
