Cabin rentals make Nebraska’s largest city a four-season camping destination.
Nebraska's largest city is a surprise hit for campers, with state parks and recreation areas dotted along the Missouri and Platte rivers. Camping doesn't need to mean bringing your RV or pitching a tent by the riverfront—there are also plenty of options for cabin rentals, ensuring a comfortable stay whatever time of year you visit. Book a modern cabin at Platte River State Park, check into an air-conditioned ridge-top cabin at Eugene t Mahoney State Park or rent a refurbished Union Pacific caboose at Two Rivers State Recreation Area. All lie within a short drive from Omaha and have hiking trails, river fishing, and swimming spots. Even closer to downtown, private vacation rentals and family cabins dot the lakefront at Zorinsky Lake Park and Lake Manawa. Just don't leave it until the last minute to book—cabins can fill up quickly during the summer months.
