✓ 5-minute drive to:

CHI Health Center Arena (concerts & shows & Berkshire Hathaway meetings)

Charles Schwab Field (College World Series & big games!)

Welcome home!

You'll enjoy this private 5-bedroom 6-bed house with two living rooms, two bathrooms, two 55" smart TVs, three couches, and a private garage, as well as a fully equipped kitchen for home-cooked meals.

It's very close to downtown Omaha, yet this place has its own sanctuary/practical safari due to its close proximity to the Missouri River and park.

Of note, there is a doorbell camera in front of the house; no cameras inside the house.

Everything was perfect. We had two families stay in the house and one stayed in their mororhome in the driveway. The driveway is not level but there were plenty of wood blocks in the garage to do the job. We had a great time! The water pressure in the showers was AMAZING! I probably took more showers than normal. I would definitely bring my family back to stay in this fantastic home. Thanks so much!

Disliked: Cleanliness

It was a good place to stay together in one location.

Upon arrival, the garage can out front by the curb, full of garbage. The lawn was not mowed. The rug in the living room was rolling up in the corner and people were tripping over it. The shower curtain liner in the downstairs restroom needs changed. There were no washcloths in that restroom. The garbage can in the kitchen needs cleaned out. The bedding and pillows definitely need upgraded.
