"The owner called to check on us mid stay was very poliet id stay again if need be"

"I loved every minute I spent at this cabin. It's quiet and quite private, a touch of the farm, but well lit and safe. Loved sitting on the patio, grilling, and watching the birds over the pond. Comfortable bed, great comfy chair by the window, fine little kitchen, and bathroom with many nice touches. "

"I was so happy with my experience at Richard and Kimma’s home. The hosts were friendly and responsive from the time of booking through the end of my stay. When I arrived, I was given a plate of homemade cookies along with the key and a tour of the house. I was spending the week at the Willa Cather conference in Red Cloud, which was a quick 20-25 min drive away, very easy to get to. I was mostly alone, though the hosts were very kind and let a friend whose hotel booking didn’t work out stay with...

RIVERSIDE MOTEL

10/10 Excellent

"Manager was very welcoming and asked if I needed anything to make the stay better. Room very clean and updated. Highly recommend!"

Hotel Garber

10/10 Excellent

"Hotel Garber is exactly the kind of place you hope to find when you're wandering through small-town America—clean, calm, and way cooler than you'd expect. It's got that "modern comfort meets historical soul" kind of vibe going on, and it pulls it off beautifully. The building itself has real presence. You can feel the history in the walls, but nothing feels old or rundown. They’ve clearly put care into updating things without stripping away the original charm. The rooms were spotless and comfortable, with just enough personality to remind you you’re not in a cookie-cutter chain hotel off the interstate. Location-wise? Couldn’t be better. You’re steps away from downtown Red Cloud, Willa Cather’s stomping grounds, and the kind of slow-paced charm that makes you remember why small towns matter. And the staff? Total pros—warm, helpful, and happy to chat or leave you be, whichever you prefer. There’s no attitude here, just genuine hospitality. Hotel Garber feels like a hidden retreat that respects its past while offering the kind of rest and peace you hope to find when you’re traveling with purpose—or just getting away from it all. Highly recommend."

Glenvil Cabin w/ Gas Grill: Steps to Dock & Pond!

10/10 Excellent

"I loved every minute I spent at this cabin. It's quiet and quite private, a touch of the farm, but well lit and safe. Loved sitting on the patio, grilling, and watching the birds over the pond. Comfortable bed, great comfy chair by the window, fine little kitchen, and bathroom with many nice touches. "

Charming 3-bdrm house with AC & WiFi in Northbranch Kansas, Northcentral Kansas

10/10 Excellent

"I was so happy with my experience at Richard and Kimma’s home. The hosts were friendly and responsive from the time of booking through the end of my stay. When I arrived, I was given a plate of homemade cookies along with the key and a tour of the house. I was spending the week at the Willa Cather conference in Red Cloud, which was a quick 20-25 min drive away, very easy to get to. I was mostly alone, though the hosts were very kind and let a friend whose hotel booking didn’t work out stay with me for a night at no penalty. As a woman traveling solo, it was nice to know that the hosts lived close by in case I needed anything, but I felt safe the whole time. There was plenty of room, and I loved their sense of style in the vintage decor. Everything was clean, comfortable. If I go back to the Willa Cather conference or am in the area for any other reason, I would stay here again. Thank you so much, Richard and Kimma! "

The Bunkhouse – A Unique Stay in Historic Hebron, Nebraska

10/10 Excellent

"It is such a great property! We held a class reunion for 50 people. Four great bunk rooms, nice bathrooms and a relaxing patio out back. Top notch place for a large group in a hopping little town. Fun bar just steps away! I would highly recommend this unique property. "

Town Center Red Cloud Loft Apartment in Willa Cather country

10/10 Excellent

"Perfect little apartment, charming decor and thoughtful amenities. Perfect for when I'm traveling alone. Red Cloud still has some cobblestone streets and many of the downtown properties are being renovated. Grain trucks can be a little loud during harvest, but I slept well. Got up early to catch the sunrise on the Willa Cather Prairie. "
