We, 8 men, had a very enjoyable stay at this location. Place was clean, check in was simply, and it had everything we needed for our stay. Thank you Verbo and Cindy for a time we won't forget. See you again VINCE.

Great place for a large group (we were 12). We were attending a football game at Notre Dame and found this to be convenient yet out of the fray. Lovely lake view and enjoyed the decks and fire pit. Comfortable rooms. Our host was very accommodating and easy to work with. Highly recommend!

Beautiful Location

The lake house was in a beautiful area. Was very nice to watch the sunset on the new large deck. Plenty of room for a couple families.

Very functional space for a large group

The house had a wonderful set up and lots of room for a large group. It has plenty of beds for everyone and the living spaces were large so that you did not feel crowded even with a large amount of people. Also the amenities (ie. use of a washer and dryer) were great.

Great accommodations for a large group!

We had a fantastic time staying here and hosting a couple of dinner parties during a football weekend. The accommodations were spacious and the setting was wonderful. Thank you for making your house available!

Wonderful Property

Eight of us came to the South Bend area to spend time with various people at Notre Dame and to see a football game. The accommodation was exactly as advertised and served our needs perfectly. Cindy was very helpful and responded quickly to any questions we had. I highly recommend this property.

Great home base for a Notre Dame football weekend!

This home was perfect for a gathering of old friends looking to celebrate many years of friendship with a side of football thrown in. The house was clean and spacious, excellent bedding for everyone and was quite convenient to South Bend and the University. Our only "complaint" was that the weather could have been nicer, but the sunrise view over the lake on Sunday morning more than made up for that. I'd happily stay here again and recommend it for others.

Great Notre Dame Weekend

The only thing that could have made our stay better would have been an Irish victory. Cindy was a great host and addressed the one minor issue we raised within an hour of being notified. The house was perefect for 8 guys getting together for a football weekend. The house was only 25 minutes from campus and FAR more reasonably priced compared with homes and hotels closer to campus.

Very suitable for our purposes. Plenty of space and lovely views. Summertime would be very nice.

Prepared a full Thanksgivng dinner for 11 people and with the use of the grill and oven, it was great. There was plenty of room and the large dining table was ideal for not only meals but for playing group games. The ping pong table was another huge hit. The # of bedrooms and bathrooms was perfect for our group, including a main floor bedroom and ensuite bathroom for an elderly parent. The views were very nice and we can imagine summertime being especially nice. Proximity to South Bend airport, stores, etc was also very good. It was not a problem for us but one should note there is no dish washer. Faucets in bathrooms were a little difficult to turn on and off, and the water pressure varied. The steps up to the side door should be replaced as they are loose and slanting downwards making it easy to slip especially when they are wet or icy. Overall, the owner was very welcoming and very easy to reach for all of our questions, and had left us a plate of delicious cookies. We would not hesitate to stay here again.

Perfect for a ND football weekend with family!

This property was perfect for our big family! Plenty of beds for everyone. Very clean. Set on a beautiful lake. Very picturesque. We absolutely loved it and hopefully will be able to return year after year! Only about 20-25 min to ND campus. It was a very easy drive.

We really enjoyed our stay in the lake house. The location worked well for us as we were traveling away from the game day traffic. The lake view is lovely even in Nov.

20-25 minute ride to Notre Dame.

Enjoyed waking up seeing the fog lift of the lake and a lone swan swimming in the lake, just off the shore. Great place for a group of ten
