Across reviews of Brookside Bungalow - A cheerful home near downtown, guests consistently praise the responsive, accommodating hosts and the convenient, quiet location near downtown and UNL, while noting comfortable beds and a large TV that suit relaxed stays.
Recurring downsides include an unkempt outdoor area with weeds or ants and a pictured fire pit that was missing, plus bathroom issues like hard-to-mix water temperatures or aging fixtures. Cleanliness feedback is mixed: some found the home clean or well maintained, while others reported odors, cobwebs, sticky counters, and stray ants. Overall, expect a convenient, comfortable base with standout hosting but some maintenance and outdoor-area imperfections.

Facilities
Multiple reviews report the yard and outdoor area as weedy or buggy, and a pictured fire pit was missing. A few guests liked the fenced yard, but overall the outdoor space felt undermaintained.

Pictures were a lot nicer than what appeared. Nice backyard with fire pit was pictured, but when we arrived there was no fire pit, yard was overgrown and cobwebs everywhere. We were not able to use the outdoor space. The hall bathroom had either freezing cold or scalding hot water. We were only able to use one bathroom with 6 people. For the amount of money we paid I expected much more. I am sorry to have to post a negative review, but I do feel this is a very deceiving property from pictures posted.

If you don't mind a nice place that is warm this is a gem. Very clean. Very nice. No AC. Who knew it would be 90+ degrees at the end of September. Thank God on bedroom had a ceiling fan and the windows worked. Great place though. Incredible TV.

The outside/yard very weedy, full of ants. Inside was tidy, but a deep cleaning is needed. Unsure if the bath mats, blankets were clean as they had an odor. Kitchen counters were sticky and needed wipe down when we got there, fridge had smell. There are zero smoke/co2 detectors in home. Dirt behind doors and in air vents, blowing cob webs. Dead ants in corners of rooms. Showers were in desperate need to attention. One was extremely hot or extremely cold, the other was rusted and shower head was almost scaled off. Fridge filter needed changed as was beeping. Paint/repairs unfinished. Scarey laundry room. Will not recommend or stay again.

No access to the lake across the street and no path to walk around the lake. Place had what we needed. Beds were comfortable. Cobwebs and bugs outside front door and no screen/glass on the screen door. The owners/managers did well with having everything we needed including a snack basket. But overall the place was a little disappointing.

This property is excellent!! It is exactly as described in the listing and pictures and is very well-maintained in a lovely, quiet neighborhood. Communication with Sarah was wonderful and very helpful. We stayed at this property for two weeks with our dogs and have nothing but great things to say about the property. We will definitely be back, thank you so much!

We had a nice time staying here. The beds were super comfortable and after a long day of travel-just what the doctor ordered. Host was very accommodating and responsive. Location is perfect. It’s close to everything and there’s a nice lake right across the street. I would recommend staying here and we will again!

Checkin was quick and easy thanks to the owner (vrbo app was doing some weird password loop and I couldn't get access there so stoked she was able to quickly help). Love the vintage house with modern upgrades. Super quiet too, so much that I didn't hear a 3" rain overnight!

We really enjoyed our stay! It was the perfect location for spending time with extended family in Lincoln. My only complaint is that the shower in the main bathroom was nonfunctional. The water was either hot or cold. There was no way to mix the two.

I have worked in Lincoln twice a month (several days each) since October and this is first and only property I have stayed at and the only one I will going forward. The house is great, about a 5-7 minute drive to downtown. Very quiet neighborhood across the street from the lake. The best part however are the hosts/owners. They are super responsive for any issues that come up (and there haven’t been any serious ones) or requests and they aim to please. The guest’s comfort and happiness seems to be their main focus! I will continue to stay here going forward—SO much better than a hotel and I can’t think of better hosts!

My friends and I enjoyed staying in this tidy bungalow while visiting the quilt museum. The host was friendly and available, providing a great selection of snacks and a bag of coffee.

Great location, easy to get around the town. Quiet neighborhood with garage parking. No fire pit in the backyard.

Some maintenance needs in the home. Not as clean as one might hope for (spider webs, ants, several areas needing wiped down or freshened up, outside back yard area not maintained with growing weeds). Beds were comfortable and rooms were stocked with toilet paper and cleaning supplies. Comfortable size overall.
