Ample space for large groups but this is right beside an interstate. It was not at all relaxing sitting outside - we had to almost yell at ear other to have a conversation. The basement - as others have mentioned - wasn’t super clean. There was a retainer in a couch and dropped something on the floor and accidentally looked under the beds :( if you need a big space this is the best going but just don’t expect a 5 star experience.

We had a great time and the old house was beautiful! Scenic 45 minute drive to Warren Dunes State Park. The beach was beautiful! We got there each day by 10:00 and we had our pick of shoreline. It then got crowded but we were spaced apart and we had a great time! The creek and big back yard made us feel that we were in a park. The fire pit and outdoor grill were much appreciated. Host responded timely with our questions. The 4 bedrooms were large so we had plenty of room. The lower level was rough.

This place was beautiful. It had plenty of stuff to do like board games, video games, sitting by the fire, or just simply wondering around the land. There was plenty of room and beds for a large group.

This is the second time staying at Cleveland House. It is historic, unique house. The two main floors are very comfortable and well stocked. The basement level needs some work to have guests stay down there.

The home is amazing, easily lived up to the pictures and description. Having some items in the fridge for a breakfast snack the first morning was a certain plus. We had three generations in the home and there was easily enough room to spread out. Check in was a breeze. The yard was amazing and it’s where we were most of the week. Unfortunately, I’m not sure the seat cushions are intended for the furniture they are used on, so the outdoor sectional was a bit awkward to try and sit on, but there were plenty of single lawn-type chairs we could use instead and ‘chase the shade’ each afternoon. We had people coming and going and never felt cramped. Some considerations, it’s an older historic home, which we loved, but stairs are required for bedrooms. It is on the tollway so traffic noise is inevitable. We had two large SUVs and discovered it easier to back down the driveway, as two large vehicles in the driveway cannot turn around. And the kitchen was really not stocked with cookware capable of supporting the amount of people the house can hold. Plenty of plates, cups, spoons, etc., but cookware seemed limited for a home this size, and there were no scissors which we seemed to constantly need. Also, we did not ‘find’ the bathroom soap until our last day so we had gone and purchased some. The soap was in a cabinet in a common area versus in the bathrooms which might make more sense. But those are simply my observations and would definitely not prevent me from staying again. The charm and historical feel is amazing. We had some families over for an ND graduation celebration one afternoon and they all loved the property and especially the yard. Thanks for an amazing week in South Bend. Do not hesitate with this property. Go Irish!!!

We booked the Cleveland House for our daughter’s wedding weekend. It was the perfect joke for our family to rest up and prepare for the weekend festivities, host our new in-laws for a backyard pizza and beer warm-up and accommodate my daughter and her 12 bridesmaids for the day of hair and makeup prep. The character of the home and spaciousness were perfect. Any request for info was quickly responded to by the owner and/or his assistant. We made plenty of choices of homes to rent and feel we made the PERFECT choice.
