Nice little place

Owner was very friendly and helpful. Good for an overnight stop. Quiet at night. Close enough to Lincoln for supplies without the noise. Have put it on my list to go back to

Very Friendly

Small but nice. Easy to get to if you call first. There in the winter so long views. Surround by corn fields in the warmer months.
