HEART of Council Bluffs (the downtown)
This is the area where you can go to anywhere within 15mins:
CHECK CB/Omaha GUIDEBOOK for diff places to check or to do - bucket list checking time!
Few Examples Out of MANY Options:
The famous, largest zoo in US: Henry Doorly Zoo, Old Market (downtown Omaha), College World Series, OMA Airport (ALL listed is 10-15min drive!)
Do you rather walk? Sure, just 5-7min walk down the hill to Red Light District (many bars & grill upper restaurants)!
This is our 3rd property (2 in the state of WA). For transparency, we currently live on the main floor (and basement), so you will have your own unit in the upper level.
Your own deck, kitchen, 2 bedrooms, a full bathroom, and a large living room.
Be warned, this is a 1890 Victorian house so it’s a bit rustic and the flooring is pretty ancient.

Access to your property is through the back of house, going up the long stairs where you will see your own private 200sqft deck with many birds and carpenter bees (they don’t sting). Close up view of black squirrels by the kitchen window. Your mind will be blown! :)
Entry door there’s a MINI mud room, where you can go in and open the second door to avoid the rain.
Through that it’ll get you to a kitchen.
Laundry is around the wall in the kitchen (around 250sqft).
Pantry is right in middle of kitchen and living room (around 400sqft).
Walking through, there’s a beautiful, large BLACK bathroom on your right via U-Turn (around 200sqft).
Then you will see large bedroom on your left of the hallway (around 300sqft).
You will see the small bedroom right straight to the end of hallway. I’ve used this small bedroom as office in the past. For a large, queen bed, it’ll be small as the access to it will be only on one side of the wall to get on the bed, FYI (around 100sqft).
You guys will have your own fire pit by the deck too. Make sure you buy your own wood for amusement or coals for cooking. :)

Important info:
This is a ln upper level unit. We also rent out main level unit. Or you can even rent both units, if available! :)
SHARED SPACE:
We have a 8ft & 6ft (kiddie’s) stock tanks as pool, which the type I’ve been swimming in both sizes growing up. No filter, but we clean them regularly with the chlorine pill. So the water could be either warm or COLD for us to swim in it.
