β€œPositive: Location. Old charm. Back patio and yard Negative: No hot water in kitchen. Dripping sinking. Especially the upstairs bathroom. Beds (fulls not queens)”

β€œPositive: Fit for purpose Negative: N/A”

β€œGreat location, very walkable to ND campus, bars, and restaurants. Plenty of space for our whole group.”

β€œGreat stay”

β€œThis home is in a great location if you are visiting Notre Dame. There were several restaurants nearby and Trader Joe’s is just a few blocks away. The neighborhood was very nice and felt safe to walk around. The home had everything our family needed during our visit to the University.”

β€œIt was the perfect house for our needs. Slept our 6 comfortably, so close to campus, a nice basement for gathering and rehearsing (visiting for a music competition) and bigger spaces for meals. Just a great place to call home base for our 4 nights.”

β€œGreat location, walkable to campus for a gameday and not far from downtown. We were traveling with young kids - there were some features of the house that we needed to be mindful of (no door on basement, laundry shoot), but a cool older home and would recommend staying here. ”

β€œGreat host, easy to work with, and very responsive.”

β€œThank you for stay”

β€œWe had a lovely time here. Close to campus. The host was very communicative and house was clean and accommodating. ”

β€œGreat location, quiet neighborhood, even on a game weekend. Convenient to walk to campus and stadium. ”

β€œMy family and I had a wonderful time in South Bend. The AirBNB was so comfortable and cozy. So much room in the house for everyone!!! The beds and linens were very comfy. We were close to Notre Dame campus and could walk or take an Uber. The neighborhood seemed very safe. This home was well worth the money I paid and I will go back whenever I get the chance!!”

β€œPlace was exactly described in a nice neighborhood. ”

β€œGreat home for move-in weekend. Proximity to campus and restaurants. Cute place with plenty of space.”

β€œA great home, great hostess, location, neighborhood cute, clean, quiet , Access was great.”

β€œWe came to South Bend for a baseball tournament and enjoyed our stay at Harter Heights Hideaway. Plenty of space and close to everything we needed. Nice, quiet neighborhood. ”

β€œIf you’re reading this review wondering if you should book this property, the answer is YES, BOOK. This house is gorgeous, spotlessly clean and well-appointed. There was literally more sitting rooms than our group of 10 could use and the screened-in back porch is perfect for morning coffee or evening nightcap. The kitchen is wonderful and the dining room made for a perfect spot-down spot for a family meal. The neighborhood is equally beautiful, quiet and close to wonderful shops as well as Notre Dame’s campus. We will most definitely stay here again!”

β€œThe location was excellent for our visit to Notre Dame. The home was spacious with rxcellwnt amenities on site. ”

β€œGood”

β€œComfortable home in beautiful neighborhood near ND campus”

β€œVery nice, clean place to stay at. I will definitely recommend”

β€œI hosted two visiting scholars coming from overseas for a month. This house in Harter Heights was perfect! close enough to campus (and groceries) to walk or bike easily, big enough for two people to each have their space, a very quiet neighborhood, and a great price. Check in was easy, and Sage was incredibly responsive to any questions we had. Also easy access to the running and bike paths around campus and along the river, which my guests greatly enjoyed.”

β€œListing was as described. Host responded quickly and was very helpful. Great location for Notre Dame. Thanks for a lovely stay!”

β€œThe hosts were very responsive to any questions I had. This huge house is a great location for anyone staying in the Notre Dame area.”

β€œProperty was just as described. The kitchen was very spacious and worked great when staying for a length of time. Close proximity to Notre Dame also worked very well for us. Very happy with this rental and would stay again.”

β€œWas a delightful stay”

β€œClean and great communication. ”

β€œIncredible Location near ND campus !! Beautiful House the only thing is that there is only one bathroom in the second floor where all the bedrooms are located”

β€œGreat space! Great location! Great host! Highly recommend.”

β€œReally beautiful home in a quiet neighborhood. Close to Notre Dame and downtown. We really enjoyed our trip. Thank you!”

β€œEverything was great!”

β€œCommunication was great and directions on all things navigating the house were easy. You can’t beat the location as it’s adjacent to the Tri-campuses. The basement was a great place for our daughter and friends to come over and play games. The only challenge was when we arrived at the house- trying to navigate the electrical switches throughout the house because some were hard to find. The breaker to the dining room lights was unscrewed from the breaker switch in the electrical panel which caused a little confusion when having students over for dinner. Also, the house could use some more smoke detectors throughout the house and the one we did find didn’t have a battery in it. Aside from that, we really enjoyed the home and had a great stay.”

β€œWe had a nice reunion . This home met all our needs . Property is just like pictures . It could use updating but clean and adequate for our needs . Location is great. ”

β€œVery quiet neighborhood and wonderful house, roomy ”

β€œThe location was great!”

β€œGreat neighborhood easy access to the stadium. Needed a deep cleaning but otherwise nice place for my family.”
