Great place for extended family

Our extended family stayed here for a Notre Dame Football weekend, and it had everything we needed. The beds were all made, and there were towels for everyone. Supplies were stocked precisely where they should be. Check-in and check-out were straightforward. Grocery stores, restaurants, etc., are nearby. We will likely choose this house every year for our family gatherings.

Great place for a group

We had a really nice time at this spacious and clean property. Big group with 14-16 people and kids included. The kitchen was well set up and stocked for a big group, the huge dining room table is perfect for gathering everyone together, the property has a lot of room outside to play, plenty of rooms, beds and bathrooms, and the host is very polite/responsive. Everyone loved their stay and we hope to book this place again for future trips.

Wonderful!

We stayed from October 10th until October13th, 2024. Prior to arrival, we were awed by the photos and descriptions left by previous visitors, and couldn't believe that a property could be as good as described. We were collectively super impressed by the home, the amenities, the location, and could not find anything wrong. Our group was comprised of family members from age 78 to age 6, and there was ample room for even more people. The owners were easily accessible, and answered any questions we had prior to arrival. About the only negative from our stay is that we couldn't stay longer! For anybody looking for a comfortable stay with a large group, this place is for you.

Wonderful Cozy Stay

This quaint, historic house had everything to offer for a cozy stay, whether visiting the Southbend area or going to the game. We enjoyed: the spacious scenic property, huge dining room table, large kitchen, ecletic decoe & pictures, 3 minute walk to the Indiana-Michigan border, and so much more. There were plenty of cozy bedrooms, bathrooms, hottub & sauna, great patio, big screen TV to watch the games, etc. We loved this beautiful property, had a great time, and would definitely stay again.

GREAT HOUSE!

This home was absolutely amazing!! We had 7 groomsmen, the groom and our immediate family staying here and there was plenty of room and we were never on top of each other. We had the rehearsal supper here as well and accommodated almost 50 people! Every time you turned around there was something more interesting to see (antiques, photos, and an organ!) The grounds are beautiful and the patio is a great outdoor space. We had a terrific time in this terrific house and were extremely sad to leave. karen

Great home to rent!

Great central location. Large enough to have multiple families stay together. Everyone had a bed (mattresses could stand an upgrade) and plenty of bathrooms. Cottage was cute and perfect for extra privacy. Plenty of space for cars and kids enjoyed playing outside. Loved, loved, loved the long table for the family to gather!

Large Beautiful Home

We stayed at the farmhouse with our adult children and grandchildren. The house had plenty of space for all of us! The beautiful dining room was perfect! The hot tub and sauna we’re definitely a hit and the large patio and grill were great as well! The kids loved playing games in the large yard. We will definitely come back!

Lovely house, great host/owner!

Beautiful house and plenty of space for large groups. David was very responsive with any questions during the stay. The only thing to be aware of is the kitchen is not well stocked in terms of pots, pans and serving dishes. So don't plan to do a lot of cooking for your large group. Overall, a great place to stay!

Great historic home with great space for larger groups but has a few issues....

First of all, the owners and the personal assistant were great to work with. Good communication, the directions to the home were very easy to follow and the property was very easy to check into. The home is a great historic property and was large enough for our group of 16 people. The dining room was perfect for our large family to gather for meals and games. The kitchen was well stocked, however, the items could use a bit up updating. We did get the use of the hot tub as well which was nice. Very easy to find and is only a few minutes from town where you could easily get anything you needed. We didn't use the internet very much as we had to keep resetting the router. We had 2 major issues and 1 minor one that would stop us from renting again. (1) The heat in the house is crazy! Even with the heaters, the main floor is either feast or famine when it comes to heat. The TV area and main floor bedroom are very warm, but the kitchen area and attached sitting room are freezing. Trying to get the heat to even out in either room was ridiculous. There is a wood stove/fireplace in the kitchen area/sitting room which you can tell was put in for heating purposes but we were not allowed to use that. The other main issue is the beds are horrible throughout the entire house. The only bed that was comfortable for any of the guests was the king bed in the upstairs main bedroom. All of the other beds literally had dipped in the middle of them and were very hard or lumpy. We had several of our group choose to find a couch to sleep on as they were more comfortable than the beds. The other minor issue was there is hardly any water pressure in the house. We learned quickly on our first day that you cannot have more than 1 person showering at a time in any of the 3 bathrooms. We understood we were renting a historic home and did so for the size which was great, however until the heat and definitely the bed situation is fixed, we would not rent this particular property again.

Great Stay, But With A Few Issues

Plusses: Clean historic building. Lots of space that was ideal for our family (20 people total), especially the large dining room table and separate living room and sitting rooms. Upstairs bathroom is spacious along with the master bedroom. We added the sauna, which we all thoroughly enjoyed. The kitchen is functional and was adequate for our needs. Building manager and contractor were both very responsive to our issues (see minuses). Minuses: Upon our arrival the water pressure was literally to a trickle. Showers could not be taken, washing dishes took an extended time, and long waits between toilet flushes. After some discussion with the contractor (who thankfully was courteous and prompt) it was discovered that there was a whole house water iron filter that had gotten plugged up. Once replaced and the appropriate valves were opened up the water pressure was back to normal. I recommend to the owners that this filter be checked and changed regularly (like, at every time change?). The biggest issue was the beds. The master bedroom had a good mattress, but all of the other bedrooms need updating. In one of the upstairs rooms my son and his wife had to put the mattress on the floor in order to sleep. If the mattress issue is resolved in the future we would consider staying here again and would recommend the property contigent to this.

Family Wedding

We stayed four nights with family-adult children, siblings and grandchildren. And we hosted a rehearsal dinner Friday night and it was great! Many of our group said they liked the "farmhouse" feel and there was room for us all with a yard for the children. Having a large dinning room table large enough for us all was unusual and very nice.

Historic house

The house was very unique and different. The main floor had ample space for a larger group and the dining room was great to seat everyone. The spa room was a nice addition and the firepit outside was great. All kitchen utensils and dinnerware needed to be cleaned before use. Some of the beds are in terrible shape. Many of them sag in the middle and some worse than I’ve ever seen. The basement area can feel a bit creepy for those not used to old, dark spaces. Some of the countertops were a bit sticky on first use and the light didn’t work in the spa room. It was a unique place to stay and suited our needs, especially outside.

Cool property, bad beds

Very cool property. Loved the atmosphere. However several of the beds were hard to sleep in and when we got there it looked as if the cleaning person left mid job. But overall it was a neat house to stay in.
