10 / 10Outstanding·Jul 2026
We had a great time in South Bend and we love staying at the property. It was 5 minutes drive away from Notre Dame and 3 minutes drive to Trader Joe's . Our party of 9 lives comfortably in the house. We had a few issues but Christy was quick to communicate and solve the issues. The house could be a bit cleaner but it wasn't a deal breaker. The neighborhood was safe and parking was not an issue for our two rental cars. We will definitely be back again next year.
