Prairie Graceland - short term rental in Lincoln's historic East Campus district

Enjoy a house on Professor’s row directly across the street from University of Nebraska-Lincoln's East Campus.

You'll be within walking distance of a Cultiva Coffee Shop, Valentino's Pizza, The Diary Store, the Arboretum, and 1 house away from the bus route that connects UNL's east and main campuses.

This spacious property features 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, 3 bedrooms and 1 bathroom on the 2nd floor and 1 bedroom/study with futon and 1 bathroom on the ground floor, and plenty outdoor areas in which to spread out.

This listing is for the first and second floor of the house with your own entrance and no shared spaces. My room is in the basement with a separate entrance and I work out of the garage.

The driveway can hold 2-3 cars. Please don't drive through the carport since it was built 100 years ago when cars were tiny. There is also street parking.

"Professor's Row" in the heart of the East Campus Community. The street is right across Holdredge from the East Campus of The University of Nebraska-Lincoln. We are about 25 blocks from Memorial Stadium, and one house away from a bus stop.

Many of the neighbors are master gardeners and take pride in beautifying their properties.

Within walking distance to a coffee shop, pizza shop, ice cream shop, and the beautiful gardens in East Campus.

Sweet Home

This is a sweet place right next to the East Campus of UNL. It is super close to the UNL Dairy Store where you can find delicious ice cream. The home itself is comfortable, cute, clean, and stocked with everything you need. Brian is an excellent communicator and great host. We especially loved the front porch, back deck and sitting area under the pergola. The yard is really nice. The beds were super comfortable.

We loved this house. It is as advertised. We loved being on Professor’s Row and how beautiful the whole neighborhood is. The NU Creamery is across the street and we enjoyed several trips over for ice cream. If we are ever back in Lincoln we will try our hardest to stay here!!

Definitely an older house - served us well

We used this house as home base during UNL commencement weekend with 6 adults staying at varying times. The location was nice - away from all the commotion of city campus, but still close enough. Beds were comfortable, grounds were lovely, dining and living room were spacious and comfortable. Overall, this house served us well, and we even had extended family stop by for an open house (with the owner's permission). To make things better, we suggest: updating the bathrooms. The shower upstairs drained VERY slowly and the downstairs showerhead was very clogged and in need of replacing (easy fix). The downstairs bathroom floor really needs replacing. More counter space and towel racks in the bathrooms, as well as more towels. Some surfaces throughout the property hadn't been dusted (e.g. an open shelf in the kitchen, outdoor furniture, furniture in the bedrooms). The kitchen was large, and had many of the needed utensils, but the drawers were in serious disarray and it was difficult to find things. Also, typical items were either not found/available, or were very low (e.g. dish soap, cork screw, paper towels, trash bags, masking tape). As for the bedrooms, there were not mirrors in each room. Also, there could have been a desk or table added to two of the bedrooms - more surface space is always appreciated. The closets were not at all useable; needed racks and hangers. Need a handrail on top part of stairs. Also, the floors are very creaky - which is charming, but also noisy.

Charm and great location

We loved staying in this charming house. The neighborhood was fun and perfect location. We even participated in shopping the neighborhood yard sale weekend. The house was clean and well stocked with many extras. Would love to book again someday.

Great space, location and accurate listing.

The space and location were perfect. We would just make a couple suggestions. There were ants in the kitchen, near the trash can on the floor. Unless you're there for a little bit you may not notice they were there. The cupboards were pretty messy. I'm sure it is hard to keep track of everything, but a little attention in this area would have made this a perfect experience.

Professor's House

Beautiful location. Safe neighborhood. Very walkable. Easy access to everything we wanted. Host was very responsive. Fairly clean. All the amenities we needed. Nice big kitchen; comfortable furniture; dining table was perfect for game-playing. House is very creaky and upstairs got a bit warm. Having the host in the basement and garage was a bit creepy.
