5.0 / 5.0
We had a great experience, and would definitely recommend it to anyone visiting Notre Dame! The house is just as described and was stocked with high end soaps and lotions that we appreciated. Travis exceeded our expectations by letting us ship boxes to the house and then bringing the boxes inside when they arrived before we did!
5.0 / 5.0
Easily the best rental property I’ve stayed at. Huge place with plenty of sleeping options for our group of 12 guys and great spaces for us to hang out both inside and outside. Walking distance to breakfast and to the Linebacker. We will definitely be back.
5.0 / 5.0
The house was very clean, large, and comfortable.
Walking or very short drive to campus, Eddy Street, the Lax field and hoops stadium. Was able to partake in all of them.
Would stay here again if and when the opportunity arises.

This place is insane. I’ve been to many vrbo’s and never written a review. But I have to here. This is an amazing place to be. So clean. Has everything. The owners are the best and they cater to everything you possibly could need. There is no other place you should stay. We were here for my daughters wedding and we had the best time.

We celebrated our Mom's 93rd Birthday here! There were only 4 of us staying there the entire time, and the Home gave us each some desperately needed time to ourselves, with all the upstairs as well as downstairs rooms...following the Christmas hustle. Very tastefully decorated IRISH with many of the Hosts' travel memoirs on display. Very interesting! FabulousHosts!!!

Cannot beat the location with walking access to ND campus! In addition to that, the home was so spacious and clean with endless great amenities to make any trip convenient and low stress! Would highly recommend to any large group and we would definitely rebook for our next family trip to South Bend.

The house was great for a quick get-together with our extended family (we only stayed for three nights).
We comfortably slept 13 of us in the house. Everything was nicely appointed, very clean and well set up for a group of that size. The kitchen was well stocked. The hosts were great at responding quickly.

Upon arriving at the house, some of our family thought the house was going to be too small for our large group. However, after opening the door and reviewing the home, we were all blown away! This house was absolutely beautiful and SO clean!! There was so much space for all of our family and room to spare! The house provided all the amenities one would need for a weekend getaway and for all ages! Our kids loved this house and didn't want to leave!
We've discussed that the next time we stay at South Bend for an ND game, we are booking this home!

A group of groomsman stayed here for our friends wedding and it was the perfect location. Each bed was comfortable and the common rooms were great. We would definitely come back for a football weekend or any other time we return to South Bend!

Well maintained property, with fun amenities (re: two TV hang-out room). I entertained colleagues and they said the place was way better than a hotel experience and that it was perfect for our group.

Thanksgiving gathering
This property was wonderful for a family gathering for Thanksgiving. There was plenty of room to get away from the group for some alone time and nice big rooms for our 2 year old to play with all of his toys! All of the Thanksgiving leftovers came to us at this house after a feast with family and friends....plenty of refrigerator space for everything! Everything we needed was there and the house was near grocery stores and drug stores. The beds were very comfortable. Plenty of parking at the house. Travis was a great host and responded immediately to our questions. I was the hero for the weekend for finding such a great place for us to stay!

Spacious, clean and great location to Notre Dame
Wooded Estates was perfect for our Notre Dame reunion with old classmates. The home was well stocked and clean with a large open living area for eating and gathering. Also the house was a great location and walking distance to the campus. The owners Janeli and Travis could not have been more hospitable. We would definitely rent again. We had such a wonderful extended weekend!!

A fantastic locale for a Notre Dame football weekend!!
The house was amazing and so clean!! The house is really a gem that accommodated our extended family for a great ND/USC weekend experience. The hosts (Travis and Janeli) were super easy to work with and the house exceeded all our expectations.

Great House and Hosts!
We are a large family raised in South Bend and needed a place to celebrate our moms 91st birthday (since her 90th celebration couldn’t happen because of pandemic.) This house was perfectly located right by ND (for walks on the beautiful campus) and the bedrooms were so spacious. Nice back porch and back yard. The photos do this house justice but the hosts were even more awesome than the house itself. Travis and Janeli were so helpful and responsive in every way. If we ever have need for a house this large again we will be reaching out to them again. Our mom can’t quit talking about what a great reunion this was and we are very grateful. You can’t go wrong with this place!!!

Great place to stay!
We have such a great time staying in this home.
House itself very lovely, everything you could possibly need, you’ll find it.
It is spotless! I’m impressed how clean it was.
There is a great backyard, so you can gather outside with friends and family.
Great communication with Travis, all your questions will be answered ASAP.
Overall, I would definitely recommend staying here.
And next time we will be in South bend it will be our choice for sure .

Fabulous Family Gathering Home!!!
All the great pictures are REAL! Our Mother's 90TH Birthday was celebrated here and our Family was blown away. There are several gathering spots, therefore we were never crowded and at times, went looking for one another, even playing hide and seek! It was wonderful to wake up with our children and grandchildren (they were impressed with the 9 tv's), sharing meals, never getting in each other's way. Travis was fabulous to work with and VERY understanding! Check in and check out were a breeze. You can see ND from the kitchen deck...shopping just around the corner. CLEAN and CLASSY! We WILL be back!

We went there to celebrate NYE and had so much fun.The property so far is the best one I have ever been at !The homeowners have equipped the house with all of the amenities you might expect, from shampoo and conditioner in the baths to spices and dishwasher pods in the kitchen.

We can't say enough good things about the responsiveness and detailed answers we received from the owners before and during our visit.Also the house was so clean ,spacious and cozy !Highly recommend!!!

The property owners were very easy to talk with. We were here with 13 guys and had plenty of places to sleep. Beds were comfortable. The multiple living rooms and TVs were perfect for the wide range of ages we had. (65-23) they had plenty of fridge room for food and beverages. Overall very good experience. Only thing that would make it better is if there was a ND game the weekend we stayed! Close walk toThe linebacker inn, and campus.

Notre Dame Drop Off- Our First born ...
We enjoyed our stay in your lovely home and the proximity to campus was fantastic! It was equip with everything we needed! We loved the downstairs basement and the four comfy recliner chairs. We spent most of our tv time downstairs instead of in the living room. It was very comfortable to be downstairs . My daughter loved sleeping downstairs as well in the dark cave .
Thank you for having us and for being so attentive to answering my questions!

Outstanding property
Home is in a very nice quiet neighborhood very close to Notre Dame campus. We stayed here with another family for a lacrosse tournament near by. The property was very clean, the beds very comfortable, plenty of towels for everyone for showering, kitchen stocked with everything we needed to make large meals for our group. Easy check in and check out. Highly recommend. Property owner/managers are very responsive with any questions. We had no issues while there.
