We had to cut our trip short due to my husband's work so that was sad. We stayed at this rental because it was close enough to Lake Mac. However, no fishing was to be had as the water was down so low. Another disappointment. The rental was nice but the traffic was non-stop due to Highway 26. We had no idea that so much semi-truck traffic would be 24/7. Understandably, it was harvest time and trucks were hauling cattle. Appreciate the owner renting out this nice place in the Sandhills of Nebraska. Hope to come back again when there will be good fishing.

We had a wonderful visit. The cabin was well stocked, private, quiet, peaceful and the garage was great to get and of the wind and have that extra space.

Our family enjoyed our stay which gave us cabin type vibes and picturesque views of Lake Mac. Main areas of the dwelling were clean.
