Home in Havana

McCarthy Lake Cottage

JamieRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago

Great place to stay….easy check in. Had everything you would need for any activity. Great views. We stayed there while visiting family in the area. Will stay again. We fished from the beach. Although pretty windy my son did kayak some. The beach/sand toys and fishing rods came in handy as well. Plenty of chairs and places to sit for family when they stopped in.

Flat in Lincoln

Art Institute: Downtown Lincoln

EarlRating, 5 stars2 days ago

Oh. My. Gosh. I love finding old buildings that have been renovated for rentals. I have never been so jazzed as when I stepped into Marcia's space, and I was pulled back to the 1920's. Beautiful renovation, but equally beautiful and impressive was the respect and admiration the hosts display for the past, and for the history of this amazing building. Such an inspiration! This place should be a destination for anyone visiting the Springfield area. Super WOWED!!
