When you think of a rural Nebraska getaway, you probably picture a tent, a cabin, or maybe a quaint, middle-of-nowhere bed and breakfast. You may not even realize that renting out an entire country mansion is an option - but it may just be the most stylish way to enjoy a staycation with a dozen or so of your nearest and dearest.
This breathtaking house sits on 25 acres of pure rural Nebraska beauty. It's located in Waterloo, just a few minutes from Omaha, but you'll feel like you're far away from the rest of the world.
The Douglas County property boasts eight bedrooms and 7.5 bathrooms and can sleep up to 15 guests. The property is wheelchair accessible, with wide doorways and hallways and no stairs to navigate.
You'll feel more like you're at a high-end vacation property and less like you're at an Airbnb on the outskirts of Omaha. This huge home has lots of room for everyone to spread out and spend time together or separately. And you'll definitely want to come with a large group and split the cost, because this rental does not come cheap.
There's more than enough room for everyone to have their own space, but the common areas are also perfect for gathering in small or large groups.
The kitchen, coffee bar, and dining area are all stocked with cookware, serve ware, utensils, and everything else you need - other than the food, of course! - to make a yummy meal or snack for your group.
If you're planning an event that calls for meeting space, there's plenty of that on the property, as well. There's a large meeting room and a smaller one, so you've got a place for every gathering, from the largest strategy conference to the most intimate breakout session.
And when you're done with the public part of the day, everyone can retire to their own comfortable room. There are 11 beds to choose from, ranging in size from single to king.
Keep up on your fitness routine during your stay with a visit to the on-site gym...
...or enjoy some nature walks on the many trails in the area.
There's a prayer labyrinth in the yard, allowing visitors to clear their minds for a bit while traversing the stone-lined path.
You can even spend the day on the beach!
The lake is perfect for a day of leisure. Whether you're looking for relaxation or thrilling activities, you can customize your visit to make this an experience you'll never forget.
There are two gazebos in the yard in which to relax and watch the world go by...
...and plenty of outdoor seating, along with a fire pit, for picnics and other outdoor fun.
You can learn more about this remarkable property and book your own stay on its Airbnb listing.
