Our stay at this home was nothing short of spectacular. From the moment we arrived, it was clear how much care and thought has gone into maintaining both its beauty and comfort. The house was spotless—truly one of the cleanest properties we’ve ever rented—and incredibly well stocked with everything we needed for a seamless and relaxing retreat.We were a group of 17 women, and the space accommodated us perfectly. There was plenty of room for gathering together as well as quiet corners for reflection and rest. The layout made it easy to connect without ever feeling crowded.One of the most special aspects of this home is its history. You can feel the character and story in every detail, which added such a unique and meaningful layer to our retreat experience. It created an atmosphere that felt both grounding and inspiring.Whether we were cooking meals, sharing conversations, or simply enjoying the surroundings, everything exceeded our expectations. This home provided the perfect setting for connection, renewal, and lasting memories.We would absolutely return and highly recommend it to any large group looking for a beautiful, welcoming, and thoughtfully maintained place to stay.

We had a fantastic stay during a busy football weekend. The house was perfectly located to get to ND campus. The bedrooms were huge and the third floor is so fun. We used the kitchen to prepare for our tailgate and it had everything we needed. Check in was super easy. The driveway accommodated several cars and we were able to very comfortably sleep 13 (we had lots of room left over).

We had a wonderful stay at the Rose Mansion! Check in was a breeze, the house was ready for us and we enjoyed the historical property as a family. The beds were very comfortable and the neighborhood is quiet. To the reviewer who mentioned the "smell" of the home, there were no odors that were an issue it all. It's a home from 1895 and had adorable charm. Thank you again for opening up your beautiful house to us!

Great historic property

The property was great for our small family reunion. The group spaces on the main level worked well. The bedrooms were all very nice. We would definitely try to stay here again if we hold another family get together in South Bend. Overall great property, highly recommend.

Stupendous stay in South Bend

The property was amazing, not only in its historic flavor but also amenities including a number of bathrooms, bedrooms, and large 3rd floor family room that hosted a family reunion of 13 adults with games, couches and even a beverage refrigerator so we wouldn't have to run down to the kitchen to replenish drinks. Host Eric was great and South Bend itself has a lot to offer for a family weekend getaway.

Wonderful family reunion!

Our family traveled from Houston, Dallas and Seattle to meet at this wonderful historic mansion! We were in town for a wedding at Notre Dame and it was just a short drive away. We were also within walking distance to great restaurants. We loved every moment of our stay and Eric was so wonderful as our Host! Definitely a 5 star review from our entire family and we would stay here again if we are ever back in South Bend!

We had the best time in this lovely home!! 6 mom's and 7 kids stayed for a lacrosse tournament. There was plenty of room, we loved the vibe in this house. So well kept, clean and cool! The boys had a blast upstairs, there's ping pong, basketball, darts and more. The Host Eric, was wonderful! He met my son and I at the house to show us around, definitely glad he did. The house had a very unique layout and features that we wouldn't of known without him showing us. Eric is a great host and we would 100% be booking this house again for future tournaments!! Thank you Eric

Such a fabulous home!

We had 11 women staying together at this property for a local convention, and it was just what we needed! We all had our own rooms, except for 4 people who still had their own beds in the upstairs loft. There was so much space! The kitchen had everything we needed, including coffee. Communication with the owner was easy, and we would love to come back again!
