Perfect house for a group trip, and in a great neighborhood! Quick drive to ND. Plenty of board games, the fire pit is nice and cozy, and the pool table was a hit. Austin was very responsive and made our stay even better. Thank you!
We were in town for one night to see my son’s last show of his bands tour. Perfect location, close to the concert venue, and enough beds to sleep all of us!
Perfect location in a charming neighborhood. We were visiting our daughter at Notre Dame for a football game. We had a couple of maintenance issues that we could work around. We alerted Austin and he planned to have them taken care of after we checked out. Nothing major. The coffee bar was great and the recliners in the living room were dreamy. We also found the beds to be very comfortable.

The location of this property was perfect for a visit to ND. The overall bedrooms were fine, but the carpet in the living room was really dirty and stained, and the rug on top was old and frayed. Many dishes in the kitchen were dirty, but were put away in the cabinets. There were a couple of chairs around the kitchen table that were broken, and one of the end tables leg fell off when we tried to move it. Overall, the house has a lot of potential, but just needs a deep cleaning and new carpets. The host is very responsive.
