    What a treasure! Wonderful communication before hand to set up our stay one night while passing…read morethrough this beautiful countryside. Our entire family was in awe of the beauty of the Prairie all around on the drive to this little slice of heaven. An old yellow house on a sprawling property. Our boys got to experience what it's like out in the countryside of this part of Nebraska. They fed llama's, swung in a big old tree swing, tossed some horseshoes and slept comfortably under the sound of a rainstorm on the roof. Everything is lush and green. Our hosts are very good people to know. We ate dinner at an old café down the road and enjoyed the burgers and chicken strips for the kids. The locals here treated us very nice. I found this little town remarkable and so rich in history that it overwhelmed my senses in a wonderful way. The sky at dusk and early morning are spectacular.

    This place is a home away from home. The proprietors have put a lot of work and love into making…read morethe place beautiful, cozy, and conducive to relaxation. Their hospitality was outstanding: switching rooms when the first didn't suit, providing a generous spread of fresh fruit and homemade cinnamon rolls each morning, heating up baby food, lending us dishes for our barbecue, and then washing them afterwards...the list goes on and on. There's a lovely patio area, and a beautiful living and dining area inside. The lawn comes complete with lawn games and an old-fashioned tree swing. Dave will cook up fantastic meals to order and take care of your every need. Additionally, the small (nay, tiny) town is perfect for wandering, and features a lovely playground, a (sometimes open) swimming pool, a library that's open for a few hours on Tuesdays and Fridays, a one-man farmer's market on Friday, and the Most Unlikely Place, an art gallery and cafe that's lives up to its name. The few people you find here are kind, curious, sociable, and generally delightful. You'd think all this would come at a sky-high price, but the prices are equal to or better than any of the chain hotels in Ogallala. For about 20 extra minutes of driving off the beaten path of Highway 80, you'll find an oasis of peace, beauty, and goodwill. Be forewarned, though: one night here will have you wanting more!
