Location
Access Road Conditions: Travel from the Highway to our driveway is flat gravel of about 1/4 mile. The turn in to our lane is a 90 degree sharp turn which starts immediately up a long straight gravel driveway. In regular weather conditions it would be no problem for a Class B, B+ or C to drive up the crushed rock driveway. At the top of the hill the road and driveway are blacktop which is where you would park your rig. Tow Vehicle Parking Details: IF pulling a travel trailer, you must have a 4 wheel drive vehicle and brakes on your rig. Maximum rig length is 25 ft and you must be good at backing up due to limited turn around area. No Class A's or 5th wheels. Class B, B+, Class C or small travel trailers are best suited for our place.

What an absolutely lovely place! The gardens and landscaping were such a treat. I had no idea that Nebraska could have such beautiful rolling /hilly country with such a variety of trees! Konda and Tim were lovely to visit with and made our stay so very comfortable. We enjoyed our 1 night stay and so did our dogs! The hilly fenced back yard was perfect for strolling around in the evening to get our travel legs worked out. We have a 25 foot class C and tow a MINI Cooper S and had no problems getting up the hill. We did disconnect once we arrived to get better situated which was easy to do. I cannot thank both Konda and Tim for welcoming our dogs and letting them play with their sweet Bernese Mountain dogs! It was a dog party and we all enjoyed the fun. It was a very chilly night and we were thankful for having a nice and peaceful place to stay .. so quiet and convenient as were were traveling Highway 30. Our stay was October 18, 2022. We are from Colorado and travel back to visit family in the midwest every year or two and would definitely stay again!

Konda and Tim have a wonderful location on top of a hill with two beautiful and sweet Bernese rescues. Incredibly gracious, Konda and Tim helped get us parked and hooked up. Thank you!

Kinda and Tim are a wonderful couple and the location for parking my campervan type B was ideal. Beautiful view. I stayed in July 2022, and would love to return.

Konda, Tim and Bernies Greeley & Grover were the most welcoming hosts! The parking spot they generously share has a stunning view. Since they refused to let me contribute for the 30 amp hookup, I did so for their Bernie rescue instead. The gravel driveway is steep but straight - I accidentally pulled into both bottom-of-the-hill neighbors’ before I realized it wasn’t a street. I reduced stars for access only because bigger RVs might have a little trouble, but the host took that into consideration when approving. My Class B was a perfect fit. I enjoyed my restorative overnight immensely, thanks to my gracious human and canine hosts!
