Very clean and spacious enough for my group of 5 (2 adults, 3 kids). Property owner was a pleasure to work with!! Questions were responded to in a timely manner. Stayed there for Notre Dame game weekend. Far enough away from the bustle of game weekend activities, but a short trip from campus (10 min). Very comfortable stay!! We will look to stay there again in the future!!

Very nice place

The place was incredibly clean and spacious. The host was very accommodating and easy to deal with. Easy, short drive to Notre Dane. Two of the beds are down the basement with fairly steep stairs. Not a problem for us, but should be aware.
