Truly one of the best rental places I have ever had the pleasure of visiting and every picture on the listing is true to our experience. Everything was clean and brand new - the kitchen and bathrooms are not only functional but are well designed and well stocked. There were so many helpful details which helped to make the stay enjoyable - from the s’mores kit to restaurant recommendations and even different options for coffee prep. I also can’t leave a review without commenting on the location - it can’t be beat! We were able to walk to campus which means this will be a must rent for any future football games. Lastly the backyard was perfection; a cozy yet spacious place to gather. I’ve already booked my next stay with my family. Great place. Great host. Great stay!

We're so happy to hear you enjoyed your stay! It made us smile to hear you appreciated all the coffee options—we know everyone's morning routine is a little different, so we try to have something for every coffee lover. The location is definitely one of our favorite things about the house too, especially on football weekends! We truly appreciate you taking the time to share your experience and are so glad you’ve already planned your next visit. We can't wait to host you and your family again this fall for the football game! Go Irish! ~Ann

We truly enjoyed our stay at the Lucky Penny! It’s in a fantastic location, super close to Notre Dame and a couple blocks away from a wonderful river trail system for morning walks/runs. It was clean, comfortable and well-equipped for our short stay with friends. It has a great outdoor space in the backyard, perfect for large gatherings. We will definitely be staying here again for our next trip to South Bend!

The Lucky Penny is a gem! We may have been the first renters and we were thoroughly impressed. The place is well equipped with supplies (especially the kitchen), beds were comfortable, and the outdoor space is spectacular! I also loved all the ND themed decor and all the personal touches like the owner's recommendations on local places to check out. The neighborhood was really nice too. Seemed safe and was very walkable. I highly recommend and will definitely be back!
