Unwind Along the Platte:

A relaxing weekend getaway

Who doesn’t need a weekend to escape the pressures of the world? This package from the Kearney area has everything you need to unwind—the beauty of nature, award-winning wine, and a spectacular meal.

Nestled near the banks of the Platte River just outside Kearney, Oldfather Guest House provides the perfect location for wildlife viewing. During crane season, sandhill cranes feed in nearby fields. Guests frequently see white-tailed deer, pheasants, rabbits, and more. Surrounded by nature, you’ll be able to relax your mind and rejuvenate your soul at this private, fully furnished, two-bedroom retreat.

Continue to savor your weekend with a wine tasting at the George Spencer Vineyard & Wine Tasting Room in Gibbon. Your package includes the appetizer platter with fresh focaccia bread, cheese and crackers, bread and dipping oil, fresh fruit, select deli meats, and chocolate. Don’t forget your complimentary wine glass!

A short drive along U.S. Highway 30 will take you to downtown Kearney and the Alley Rose—the premier dining experience in the area. This restaurant is known for its modern cuisine and historic charm. Your biggest decision of the day will be whether to dine on a mouthwatering steak or fresh seafood.
