Weddings got smaller and this house got more useful. Forty-four percent of American couples are now hosting under fifty guests, and micro weddings grew twenty-three percent year over year heading into 2026. A ballroom cannot do fifty people without feeling empty. A first floor built in 1909 can.

We have the reception room, the dining room, the den, the enclosed patio and the front porch, and you can take the whole floor or just the part you need. All weddings here are coordinated through Experience Happiness. Call us on 402-874-2000 to talk through dates.

This one came in last month and we have read it about forty times. What guests keep telling us is some version of the same thing, which is that they expected a nice old house and got somewhere they did not want to leave.

If you have stayed with us, leaving a line on Google genuinely helps a small independent place like ours get found. If you have not stayed yet, the fall dates are at marthasbnb.com.

A whole day in Lincoln without getting in your car twice.

Start at the Haymarket for coffee and the Saturday market while it is still running this month. Walk over to the Capitol, which is free, open to the public, and genuinely one of the strangest and best buildings in America. Spend the afternoon in the Sunken Gardens. Then come back, sit on the porch, and do nothing.

Save this for your next trip, or send it to whoever you are coming with.

The Martha Suite is the room people book when two couples travel together or when a family needs space without being in separate buildings.

A king bedroom, a second room with a queen, and a Jack and Jill bathroom between them, so you share the house but not the walls.

There is a third version with the sun room and its twin beds when you need one more bed. It books out first on event weekends.

Dates are at marthasbnb.com.

Six rooms, two completely different worlds, and most guests have a strong opinion within about thirty seconds. Marilyn, Norma and Dorothy are our Art Deco rooms, which means clean lines, geometry, and a bit of 1920s confidence.

Alma, Alvera and Elizabeth are Louis XVI, which means curves, softness, and a lot more intricacy. Neither one is the upgrade. They are just different moods. Swipe through and tell us in the comments which room is yours.

Somebody chose this in 1909 and it is still here. That is the part of an old house that gets you. Every door handle, every bit of glass, every square of tile was picked by a person who never imagined a stranger would be photographing it a hundred and seventeen years later. We keep as much of it as we can. Send this to whoever you would walk through an old house with.

Game day in Lincoln and the whole town turns out. If you are driving in for a Saturday this season, here is the thing most visitors learn too late.

The hotels downtown sell out first and the rates climb hardest, while a historic house two miles out gets you a quiet night, your own front porch, and a parking spot that is not a garage. We still have a few fall weekends open. Have a look at marthasbnb.com before the November dates go.

October in a 1909 house in Lincoln looks like this. The light comes in low through the front windows from about four in the afternoon, and the whole first floor goes gold for an hour.

Seven rooms, six of them named after women who shaped this house, one historic home two miles from downtown. If you are coming to Lincoln this fall, the quiet weekends are the ones worth booking. Rates and availability are at marthasbnb.com.

Nebraska is 2 and 0 at home, and tonight the Huskers go for three when North Dakota comes to Memorial Stadium at 6:15.

A 6:15 kickoff gives you the entire day, which is honestly our favorite kind of game day. Our guests came down to continental breakfast this morning with nowhere to rush off to, and now they have hours to wander the neighborhood, grab lunch downtown, and still get to the stadium early.

This is the third weekend in a row that Martha's has been full of Husker fans, and we are not tired of it yet. The porch stays busy all morning, the coffee goes fast, and everybody walks out the front door in red.

To everyone staying with us tonight, have a great one out there, and breakfast will be ready when you wake up tomorrow.

We have one question for the Husker fans reading this. Where do you go in Lincoln before a night game, and what do you order when you get there? We are always looking for new spots to send our guests, so tell us about yours in the comments.

If you want in on a weekend like this one, Nebraska hosts Maryland on October 3 to open Big Ten play, and we still have rooms open for it. You can book direct at marthasbnb.com for our best rate.

Go Big Red.

Are you planning a summer family reunion? Reserve the whole house at Martha's. You get the entire property, the kitchen, the living spaces, and continental breakfast every morning. The house is big enough for the whole crew and quiet enough for real conversations.

DM us for July and August dates.
