Family wedding landed us in Omaha with children and adults alike. House is roomy, kitchen is well equipped and location is terrific! Books and puzzles abound for “the littles” and we all enjoyed watching the cousins play. A great spit for families!

Gorgeous home in a great location

We had a girls trip to Omaha and the house was perfect for our group! There was plenty of space and the bathrooms were recently remodeled and in great condition. The Blackstone District is steps away. I would absolutely rent this home again. The pictures don't do it justice, there is so much space. The bedrooms and living areas are large! The owners were very responsive as well.

Another great stay!

This is our 2nd time staying in this beautiful home, and it was just as fabulous as the 1st one! Tiger and Wendy are top notch hosts, providing all the necessities and then some, and always a local treat of fresh bread. The house is full of character and there's so much to appreciate that you're always noticing something new!

Beautifully designed and stocked

Our stay was perfect from the time we arrived to departing. This house is beautifully decorated and cared for. The kitchen, bathrooms, etc are all well stocked. The sitting areas are great for gathering and conversations. The hosts were easy to contact before our arrival and as needed. They welcomed us with 2 loaves of bread, butter and chocolates...perfect and unexpected. We would definitely stay here again.

Historic Excellence

We thoroughly enjoyed our Christmas trip to Omaha at Tiger’s and Wendy’s home. The restoration is simply amazing and my family had lots of fun just looking around and enjoying the beautiful house. Located right in Blackstone historic district with lots of restaurants and bars within easy walking distance. Tiger and Wendy are the perfect hosts. We will definitely stay here again!

Wonderful and Unique

From check in to check out the property owners were wonderful. We were welcomed by the owners with fresh bread and some fun treats. Home is beautiful and kept up well. We had a group of 8 adults that all needed a little bit of space to themselves, and this home was perfect for that. Location is so much fun and lots of things to enjoy within walking distance. Wedding at Joslyn castle, evenings in the local pubs, ice cream and fresh baked cookies. We enjoyed our stay, Thanks you!

Fabulous house in a fabulous location!

We thoroughly enjoyed our Omaha visit at this property. The house is very conveniently located close to downtown and within walking distance to several restaurants, pubs, and boutique shops. The interior is very nicely decorated and updated with cozy charm. I don’t know when we’ll get back to Nebraska again, but if we do, we would love to stay here again. Highly recommend.

Hidden Gem

This house has been restored with love and attention to creative details such as "find the fairies and fairy doors hidden in non-conspicious places" and partaking in locally made candy and bread generously provided by the hosts. Nooks and crannies for young people to explore. Beautifully decorated with interesting things from the past. Highly recommend this house. C

Wedding Perfection!

My husband and I stayed at this lovely home to prepare for our son’s wedding here in Omaha. Heritage House easily accommodated family members who traveled in to celebrate with us over the Thanksgiving holiday. This home was well equipped and centrally located to all designated venues. Tiger and Wendy are great hosts, and they were very easy to contact and returned our messages promptly. All who stayed with us enjoyed the accommodations. Thank you so much for making our stay memorable.
