“I really enjoyed this little house for my stay. Location was perfect and the neighborhood felt safe. My only complaint was the kitchen faucet needs to be replaced because the water sprays all over. The other was that the treadmill did not work. But that was not a deal breaker.”

“The home was as expected. I booked this place for my ND daughter who was returning from study abroad while she waited for her home to be ready 3 weeks here worked out perfectly. Communication was great. We had a small frozen pipe issue that was caused by the extreme cold weather (no fault of the owners) and the host was very accommodating to get the issue addressed in record time. We recommend the home as a safe home away from home.”

“This gem of a house is perfectly placed for all visitors to South Bend - within striking distance of Notre Dame and the heart of downtown. Situated within a heritage neighborhood full of architecturally interesting residential structures, this house was clean, organized, free of clutter, functional, and charming. It included all the amenities we needed for our visit. Would stay here again!”

“Great location in a nice neighborhood and close to University of Notre Dame's campus.”

“Great location near campus. Host was very responsive. Home has everything needed for a productive stay.”

“Great house in great location right by the school. Hosts were responsive and had everything we needed. Reminded a lot of when I lived off campus as a student at Notre Dame. Thanks for a great stay.”

“I enjoyed my stay so very much. The neighborhood was quiet, and the home was so cozy and welcoming. I appreciated how responsive the hostess to any questions I had. I would stay here again and again.”

“Good place”

“Very, Very nice spot. Would highly recommend, will be attempting to get back in this place as often as possible”

“We had a great stay! Perfect for our ND weekend.”

“Very quaint and cute place to stay! Great location between Notre Dame and downtown South Bend! Highly recommend this place.”

“Thanks!”

“Very quaint house in a nice neighborhood that is very walkable. It is an older house with some squeaks and creeks but is clean and had the space we needed. The AC struggled to keep up in the heat of summer but it never got too warm as long as you close the main floor vents. This house was a great value for our extended stay :)”

“Overall this place was nice and the location was great. Unfortunately there were a couple of issues with the cleanliness of the kitchen as well as not having the place stocked with a few essentials but the response was timely and they addressed the issue same day which was appreciated.”

“fine place. simple clean”
