Short trip to South Bend

This property was perfect for our very short trip to South Bend for a family birthday party. It would have been great to be able to stay longer, but schedules wouldn't allow. The property was perfect and we enjoyed the time we had there!

Escape Room Fun!

We (my husband and I) were here for a non football ND event during the week. Property was clean with plenty of room for us. Escape rooms are a hobby of ours and it was a really fun time! Some things are easy, some puzzles challenging. We are experienced but did not fly through the puzzles. A fantastic idea for something to do in "down time". We walked to campus some of the time we were back and forth. Close to everything. An older home but nicely renovated. We were very comfortabpe here. Todd is an excellent host.
