Sprague, NE

Sprague is a tiny village tucked into the farmland southwest of Lincoln, with a population of under 150 residents. While the town itself is quiet and compact, its biggest backyard draw is Bluestem State Recreation Area, located just a couple of miles to the west. The lake and surrounding parkland give the area plenty of outdoor appeal, bringing boaters, campers, and anglers out to the water from spring through fall.

For anyone considering a move out this way, Sprague offers a classic rural Nebraska pace with genuine peace and quiet. Daily routines are simple, yet downtown Lincoln is only about a twenty-minute drive away for work, groceries, and entertainment. It is an appealing spot for people who want wide-open space and quick access to the lake while keeping the city within easy reach.
