The house has central air along with a forced air furnace. We have 2 bedrooms complete with queen size beds. A large dining room to easily accommodate a large family gathering or just a small party. Newly remodeled kitchen complete with appliances and cookware/silverware. Bathroom with large walkin shower, complete with towels. Living room has a hide-a-bed queen size couch, love seat, recliner and TV with DVD player, with access to local channels. An outside fireplace to enjoy smores with your family or just enjoy the piece and quiet of the night. Free WiFi and Cable TV Guest Access House is located within 2 blocks of Harlan County Reservoir. Methodist cove is 2 miles from our house where you can launch your boat for fishing or recreational boating. Harlan County is also home to excellent pheasant, quail, dove, duck, goose and turkey hunting, along with whitetail and mule deer hunting. Over 17,000 acres of public access. The lake is the 2nd largest in the state of Nebraska. During the winter months, hundreds of Bald Eagles stop over at the lake on their annual migration. During the spring migration the lake is a stopping for thousands of ducks, Canadian and Snow geese, as well as pelicans. Interaction with Guests Our house is your house. We only ask that there are no smoking or pets allowed in the house, otherwise you won't ever see us. The Neighborhood The local movie theater is 2 blocks down the street where you can watch a movie on the weekends, or walk another block and you're at the local downtown business, which include a grocery store, restaurant's, bars, or even places to get a fishing pole. Maybe you just want to walk a block south to the 2 1/2 mile concrete walking trail to enjoy the birds or other wildlife following along the shore of Harlan County Lake. Other Things to Note We do require a 2 night minimum, this due to it being difficult to rent 1 night and then trying to fill the other night on weekends. We welcome hunters, fisherman, or just family vacationers. ## Property amenities ### Internet - Available in the house: Free WiFi ### Parking and transportation - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Electric kettle - Microwave - Oven - Paper towels - Refrigerator - Stovetop - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 2 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 1 bathroom - Shower - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Living room - Separate dining area ### Entertainment - DVD player - Games - Smart TV with cable/satellite channels - Video library ### Outdoor areas - Barbecue grill - Firepit - Garden - Patio ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoking not allowed ### Location highlights - Near a hospital - On a lake ### Things to do - Golf - Birdwatching nearby - Hunting nearby - Motor boating nearby - Parasailing nearby - Rafting nearby - Sailing nearby - Swimming nearby - Water skiing nearby - Water tubing nearby - Wildlife walks nearby - Windsurfing nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - Fire extinguisher - Deadbolt lock ### General - Garden ## Similar properties ![Beach](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/120000000/119160000/119157700/119157613/06a9bbf4.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### A cozy house retreat in Republican City and Harlan County Reservoir.
