Onawa : locations de vacances

We had a great time re connecting with nature. Perfect cabin for a little get away!

Polly was a lovely host. I arrived to find a welcome note and yummy bottle of wine waiting for me and the home tastefully decorated for Christmas, including a tree! She was very quick in responding to my reservation request and when providing important information and instructions. I was in town for our family Christmas and needed to prepare a couple dishes for it. I fully expexted needing to make a trip to a store for something I forgot or that the kitchen didnt have, but was surprised and delighted to find it was well-stocked with every utensil and pan I needed!

Absolutely blown away by how great this place was! The cabin was very cozy, and the walking trails were a delight! I'd recommend using the trails for xc-skiing in the wintertime! The cabin is far enough from Omaha that you can see quite a few stars (with clear skies and the right moon-phase), yet close enough we were able to venture back into town to get some groceries. Before we even left we decided we want to return sometime in the next few months, the cabin was that charming!

Our stay was great! The home had everything we needed. The house was clean and the beds were comfortable. The only issue we had was with the air conditioner. It was over 75 degrees when we arrived (our trip was early June). We turned it down but it automatically went back to what it was set to after we went to bed (we arrived at midnight and went straight to bed). All bedrooms were upstairs so it was very hot. I messaged her the next morning and she quickly told me what I needed to do and told me she could come look at it if needed. Thankfully it cooled off and the rest of the stay was nice and cool. Would definitely stay again.

Cute little house that worked well for my family. House was clean and well cared for.

We enjoyed our stay at hilltop! We were there for a family wedding and it was so nice to be close to the venue! There were enough beds to fit our families as well which was great! Julie was very responsive with our questions! We will hopefully be returning at some point when we are visiting family again!

Amy's home is cozy, comfortable and immaculately clean. The kitchen was well equipped except for a spaghetti serving spoon I needed, but I improvised. Our dogs enjoyed exploring the private, fenced in backyard. The stairs to the basement are directly across from the backdoor. When we first got there, we let our dogs into the backyard. In my dogs' excitement to explore the house, one of them leaped from the step on the enclosed patio straight across to the basement stairs. It was dark and I'm sure he thought he was running into a room instead of stairs. My heart jolted as I heard him tumble down the stairs. Thankfully, he was fine, but he had no further interest in the basement. The house is a short drive to Bellevue, where my husband had business for the week. I appreciated the desk from which I could work remotely. There are quite a few stairs to get to the front door and to keep in mind if you're bringing multiple bags. Overall, we had a very pleasant stay at Amy's Baby Blue!

Amber went above and beyond to make our stay as comfortable as possible. Her 100 year+ home is in a historic district of Council Bluffs adjacent to the Gilbralter Neighborhood Trailhead. Several of our family members took advantage of its proximity and went hiking during our visit. Her home is a mix of old and new - 19th and early 20th century craftsmanship, such as a beautiful central staircase, combined with 21st century technology such as WiFi, and numerous televisions throughout the expansive home. Fun amenities include a pinball machine and a treadmill for exercise. My family especially enjoyed competing on the pinball machine. Amber’s home was stocked with all sorts of treats ranging from muffins to a charcuterie tray. Whenever we had a question either about something in the home or some activity in the area, Amber was very quick to respond. I’ve stayed in numerous vacation rental properties. This one stands out in all the right ways. I would definitely recommend.
