Great place near the campus. The house was quite comfortable and had all the amenities needed. Nice backyard area to enjoy the Fall weather. The host was very responsive before and during the stay. I will definitely look up this location again for a NDGame.

Our stay was great! The house was very comfortable, fully stocked with anything you would need in the kitchen, plenty of towels and paper products. The neighborhood is lovely and quiet. An easy walk to catch the shuttle to the Notre Dame football game. Great communication with the owner also. Would definitely stay again!

We LOVED this property. Fantastic neighborhood, just a short walk from White Field parking (from which you can catch the free shuttle to the stadium). Super clean. Easy check in/out. Will stay here again.

Second stay here. Will come back

I stayed here a month ago for a football game, and am glad I came back. The place is clean and in a quiet neighborhood just north of campus (in fact, several folks in our group walked back from the stadium after the game). The Direct TV is a bit odd to work, and is missing some sports channels, but we just streamed ESPN on a phone and projected it to the tv. Great times!

Felt Welcomed Home

So clean! Well organized and welcoming! We were impressed by all the comfort and details. Kitchen was well stocked. We grilled and played corn hole in the lovely back yard. Plenty of supplies for everything we needed for our stay. Everyone slept well and the bedrooms and spaces Weser up well for guests. Close to Notre Dame for quick back and forth s to campus. Definitely would select this home again. Highly recommend!

Great Place Convenient to Notre Dame

Stayed here for graduation weekend. Property was easy to get to and is a short trip to Notre Dame. Beds were comfortable, place was clean. After checkout the owner was even willing to let me go back into the property to check and see if we left something in one of the bedrooms. Will definitely try to book when we're up for football games in the fall.
