You’ve got an overwhelming number of choices when it comes to cozy getaways in Nebraska. But there’s only one where you can wake up, walk outside to your private deck, and see majestic sandhill cranes filling the sky during their migration. But even if you don’t visit during the migration season, you’re going to love this gorgeous retreat in nature.
This charming yurt is one of the most unusual accommodations in Nebraska. It may just be the only rental yurt in the entire state. It’s known as the Dancing Crane Writing Center & Artist Retreat Yurt, but you don’t have to be a writer or artist to enjoy this lovely getaway.
