Thoroughly Enjoyed Our Stay

Our family really enjoyed our stay. We noticed a lot of thoughtful touches to anticipate a variety of guests' needs. The screened in porch area was really nice for playing board games as a family and our kids loved the foosball table. The kitchen was well stocked with equipment. We had a very nice stay.

Wonderful stay, great for families

We had a wonderful stay here. Emily was incredibly kind and helpful. This was our first experience traveling with our 10 month old and she was very helpful and this place was perfect for our whole family. It is very clean. The location was convenient to get to downtown and the Zoo. We would stay here again and recommend it to anyone.

Omaha Zoo

Nice stay. Easy to find, in a nice neighborhood, don’t let the industrial area you drive through scar you 😃 great host who communicated well with us. We booked it due to proximity to zoo and it all worked out great. The basement and enclosed patio were great bonuses that helped the grandkids unwind and play.

We had a great time staying at this property and exploring Omaha. It was perfectly located for day time exploring and stopping back at the house for dinner every night. The house had everything we needed and communication with the owner was a breeze. Would highly recommend.

love this place! The open area to gather and eat in the kitchen, dining and living area works great to come visit grandparents in the area. this is our 3rd visit and the screened area is a wonderful bonus! My only wish is that it had one more bedroom full of bunkbeds because the grand kids keep on coming in our family and I hate to outgrow the place! Emily is the best at communicating! If you book this one you will not be disappointed!

Great place!

Our family with young adults and 1 baby stayed 3 nights at this home in Ralston. Cute. Clean. Kitchen had what we needed to make breakfast each morning and bake a lasagna supper that I brought from home. Plenty of towels and washcloths. Nice room in the basement with foosball/pool table combo. For baby there were booster seat/high chair combo, pack and play, baby jungle for young baby to play on floor, books and a couple of toys! Highly recommend!

Stayed at this home while visiting the area. Very nice house. Very cleanly and beautiful with plenty of space for our large family to move around in! Kids loved the foosball table and gave them something different to do. The neighborhood is nice and quiet. We did not have any issues and the communication with the host was wonderful.

Enjoyable stay in this comfortable, quiet well-equipped home

We came to Omaha from out of state to visit relatives and brought our dog along. This homey, spacious rental had everything we needed, in a quaint older neighborhood. It made the perfect home base to hang out with family. We especiallt enjoyed the large screened-in patio.

Perfect!

Two dads and three hockey teens traveled from Colorado to Omaha for their annual hockey camp. Instead of doing hotel rooms this year, we lucked out and found this property. It was perfect for the boys to have their own space and the Dad‘s to also have a space to chill out after long days. All of our interactions with the owner were wonderful, quick and easy, and we couldn’t be happier. Hopefully we can stay here again next year, Thanks for being a great host!

About the host

Hosted by Emily Bennett

Host profile image
I am Emily. I love design and thrifting and creating relaxing, stylish and tranquil spaces. I fell in love with the Sunset Sanctuary house because of the warm paneled vaulted ceilings and the amazing screened in porch. I decorated it with the intention of it being a great place to relax with family and friends.

Why they chose this property

his house is located in one of the older areas of Ralston right near what used to be Seymour Lake. There are cool unique homes around it and large mature trees. This house has the neatest mid century / cabin vibe and is decorated to honor the mid century / cabin feel.

I grew up in Ralston and while I don't live there anymore it still has my heart. I find it to be the perfect location in the Omaha metro as its just a few minutes from the interstate and you can get almost anywhere in the metro area fairly quick..

What makes this property unique

The screened in porch is a lovely place to sit and enjoy the yard and outside while not getting bit by bugs!

Lots of driveway space if you are travelling and need RV or extra parking that is off street.
