Great getaway

We booked this house as a group of 11 adults looking for a weekend away/friend time. It was very clean and spacious for a large group. Plenty of parking was a great bonus! Check in and Communication with the host was excellent. We spent lots of time in the pool and on the patio/around the fire pit. The location was great too, great neighborhood, close to bars and restaurants, and very close to campus. If we are in the area, I would definitely book here again!

GREAT LOCATION AND HOUSE

Our son's baseball team was coming to town to play Notre Dame. Minutes from campus and the baseball stadium as well as the teams hotel. House is very spacious with an open floor concept. 2 bedrooms with a full bath off the living room. There is a door leading to the hallway for these bedrooms which helps to cut down on noise and increase privacy. 4 bedrooms upstairs. Everything described by Jerry is accurate. Would come back.

Perfect House for Large Gathering

With 6 bedrooms, a pull out couch, and even a couple air mattresses, this house is perfect for a large gathering. Close to grocery and convenience stores, and only a short ride to local restaurants and bars, it doesn't get any better than this! Highly recommend this house!
