Nebraska Bed and Breakfast



Nebraska is a state known for its farming and football but the state has much more to offer visitors in the way of entertainment, scenery, and history. Many come here every year to learn about the Pawnee Indians, the famed Chimney Rock, and farming and agriculture. From Scottsbluff to North Platte to Columbus to Omaha to Lincoln there is so much to see in the state of Nebraska. So pack up the kids, significant other, or the friends or all of the above and head out for a vacation full of learning experiences, excitement, and fun. Getting here is the first step; its getting ready to leave that is the hard part.

Nebraska’s history began in the 19th century with the Pawnee Indians living on the land and hunting buffalo and planting corn and beans. It was in 1854 that the United States government opened the territory for settlement and thousands of Americans traveled along the path of the famed Oregon Trail. Ranches and farms and villages began to pop up everywhere throughout the state. Visitors to the state today come to explore those first towns and villages and get a taste for what it was and is like to live the life of a farmer in a land where natural occurrences make the job quite difficult to perform. In fact, visitors today can still see evidence of the sod houses and the earth-lodge villages throughout the state and can even get a taste for the culture at one of the state’s two Indian reservations which include the Santee Sioux Reservation and the Omaha Reservation. Curious visitors also have the opportunity to visit Chimney Rock, a point which pioneers traveling to the state could see well before actually arriving in the area. All over the state visitors can view what it was like to live in the state of Nebraska in the 18th century so if history is your thing then this is the place to vacation.

Although much of the land in Nebraska is flat that doesn’t mean that the scenery cannot be enjoyed. There are a number of lakes and rivers throughout the state where visitors enjoy rustic camping, world class fishing, and a variety of exciting water sports. Lake McConaughy is known for just such activities and popular rivers include the North Platte River, the Loup River, the Republican River, and the Elkhorn River and that’s just to name a few. For those vacationers that want to spend their time near the water Nebraska is the right place to go. For the visitor that wants to get close to untouched nature there is a few places to go as well. The state is home to two individual wildlife refugees which include the Crescent Lake National Wildlife Refuge and the Valentine National Wildlife Refuge as well as the Oglala National Grassland. For a state characterized by flat land and farms there is plenty to see in the way of untouched nature and that is exactly what so many visitors come to see each year. Your family will love Nebraska and all the natural beauty that it is as well.
