We booked last minute and host was very accommodating. How was clean and beds were very comfortable. I would definitely stay again. And recommend to others.
Bancroft house worked out perfectly for our family christmas get together. Plenty of space for four families to spread out. Large dining room and game room for the kids were great. Would stay here again.
We gathered our family for a weekend in Omaha and really enjoyed our stay. The home was just like the photos with well thought out amenities! We appreciated the location for ease of access to parks, the zoo, and I80.
We’d like to stay here again next year!
We rented the Bancroft house for our family Christmas trip. The house is beautifully remodeled! It's in a great location close to local attractions & restaurants. The hosts were amazing with communication & amenities included were top notch. We had 12 adults plus a toddler and there was plenty of space for everyone.
We spent the weekend there to celebrate our son's college graduation. The house is gorgeously renovated and had all the things we needed. Lots of space for family to stay and friends to visit to celebrate with us. Immaculately clean and so easy to check in and out. Plus, the beds were super comfy and we slept so well. Thanks for sharing your great house!
The space was very clean and very nice!! There were many small touches that made the experience that much better! It was perfect for me and my friends. We had so much fun!
This is our second year staying here for a confernce at the CHI convention center. Perfect location for the center and such a better stay than hotels. We love that we can all comfortably stay here, have privacy when we need it, but team bonding time in multiple communal areas too. We will be back again if our conference continues to stay in Omaha. Thank you!
This is a beautiful house with more than enough room for our party of 12. The hosts were really great about communication during the entire process. Of all the vacation rental homes we have stayed in around the country, the Bancroft house was the most hospitable and best stocked with household essentials, linens, games and even more. Thank you for a wonderful spring break stay in Omaha!
We rented this house for our family to stay at for the week of our son’s wedding. There was plenty of room for everyone to have their own space. The kitchen and dining room was so accommodating for us all. I would highly recommend staying here. Thank you for sharing your house with us.
This stay in Omaha was a perfect family getaway experience for us. Lots of bedrooms, bathrooms and space. Super clean, beautifully decorated, and the owners have thought of everything. Within 10 min of everything and so close to the zoo and downtown.
Have to note that this has been the best rental host experience we have ever had! Bruce and Lisa have done a phenomenal job with the property, their communication was A+, and they have gone above and beyond to provide recommendations, and so much more.
This home is as nice as the listing shows, maybe even nicer. My group of twelve were very comfortable in this clean, charming, very tastefully decorated home with a very nice fenced in outdoor space. The hosts were immediately responsive to any needs or questions, and also had fresh fruit, treats, and bottled water for us upon our arrival. Truly welcoming! The beds, the towels, the coffee bar…everything was top notch! We highly recommend the Bancroft House!
6 adults and 1 very active two year old toddler stayed here for a weekend after thanksgiving. This was the best vrbo.we have every stayed at. The house was amazing, the attention to details such as the coffee station, the toiletries and the toddler toys provided were such an amazing addition to the stay. The house was so clean and the decor was impeccable. Would definitely stay here again if we ever come back to omaha. Thanks.
We had an absolutely amazing day, celebrating my dad‘s 60th with our entire family at the Bancroft house! It was extremely clean, the linens and towels were super high quality, it was insanely clean, and absolutely anything that we could’ve possibly needed was provided for us in the house. I couldn’t recommend this property more!!! The option of adding baby gates for all of our toddlers to was extremely helpful, too. Such a beautiful house!
The house was spacious and clean. The location was good, and the outdoor space was awesome for outdoor games and our dogs. The only thing that I was disappointed in was that the listing stated two single beds in the living room, I was expecting a day bed or a chair that folded out into a bed and found nothing. After some searching, we found two twin air mattresses in the closet.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Bancroft house. We were a party of 5 adults, a 3yr old & 1year old. Walking into this home we were greeted to a cool, clean and beautifully furnished home. It’s was enjoyable to wake up here & return in the evenings. The coffee bar with easy keurig coffee, creamer and breakfast bars were wonderful. Our 3yr old granddaughter found the children’s toys and was happily entertained throughout our stay. The baby’s high chair & baby gates were another thoughtful addition to our stay here.
The beds & linens were very comfortable. This home was delightful and we would 💯 return to stay here again. Thank you Bruce & Lisa
The Bancroft house was the perfect place for my family to stay during our daughter’s graduation weekend. The spacious home provided plenty of room for 11 of us to gather, eat and sleep comfortably. Family from New Zealand, Raleigh, California, and Hawaii were able to be together. For a lot of us, this was the first time we were able to meet our 3 -month-old granddaughter. The owner had two play cribs available for us to use with brand new sheets, still in the package. That was one of many personal touches the owners did to make us feel so welcome and at home.
Bedding and towels were top quality. All the comforts of a luxury hotel. Kitchen appliances are new and the kitchen is stocked with plenty of dishes, cookware, wine glasses and a coffee bar. Fresh fruit and protein bars greeted us at arrival. Which was perfect after a long day of travel.
Communication with the owner was very good. Check in and check out was a breeze. The locks on the doors were easy to use and allowed all of us to come and go without the hassle of keys.
Freshly remodeled, the owners paid attention to detail and did not cut corners. Beautifully designed and comfortable. The dining room table is huge, even without the leaf, it was a great place to gather together.
Centrally located and convenient to everything we did, the neighborhood was quiet and safe.
This is an exceptional property. Do not miss out on the chance to stay here.
Wonderful house that was very comfortable and clean. Nice touches like having a bit of fruit, granola bars and coffee already in place for us. Would definitely stay here again.
