Luxury Home near Notre Dame w/Arcade Room!

We are excited to share our childhood home with the world. Our Dad was a proud business owner of McGlown’s Tax Service until he retired, leaving the business to my siblings and me. Our Mom retired from Notre Dame, so it’s safe to say we are lifelong Irish fans! Being born and raised in South Bend, we have deep roots in this community, and RW’s & D’s is our second family business—a labor of love we built together to continue serving others.

We carry forward our family’s values of hard work, service, and hospitality. Our motto is “serve others first,” and we bring that mentality into every detail of your stay. Whether you’re here for a Notre Dame football game, graduation, a reunion, or just a weekend getaway, we want you to feel at home the moment you walk in.

What makes hosting special for us is creating a space that blends comfort with connection. This house holds so many of our family memories—celebrations, holidays, and game days—and now we enjoy seeing our guests create their own. We love hearing stories of families gathering around the dining table, friends battling it out in the arcade room, or alumni reliving their college days while staying close to campus.

As South Bend locals, we’re always happy to share insider tips—where to grab the best coffee, enjoy a local meal, or find hidden gems around town. Our guests often tell us they feel like they’re staying with family, and that’s exactly the experience we aim to provide.

We believe travel should be more than just a place to sleep—it should be a chance to feel welcomed, cared for, and connected. That’s why we take pride in keeping our home well maintained, updated, and ready for every guest. We’re honored to carry on our parents’ legacy of service and community by offering this home away from home.

We chose this neighborhood because it’s not just where we grew up—it’s home. Our childhood memories are rooted here, and now we love sharing the same sense of comfort and community with our guests. The house is located just minutes from the University of Notre Dame, which means you’ll always feel the energy of a true college town. On any given day you’ll see students jogging through the area, families walking their dogs, and neighbors stopping to chat—it’s the kind of place where people genuinely take pride in where they live.

The neighborhood has seen a lot of growth over the years, with new homes and local businesses adding fresh life while still keeping that welcoming, small-town charm. Being so close to Notre Dame, you’ll quickly notice the pride and tradition that runs deep in this area—whether it’s tailgates on game day, graduation celebrations, or simply seeing Irish flags flying proudly on porches.

What we love most about this neighborhood is the balance it offers: it’s peaceful enough to relax and feel at home, yet close enough to all the action. Guests can enjoy quiet mornings with a cup of coffee on the patio, then take a short drive to campus, downtown South Bend, or nearby shops and restaurants. Our place gives you a true connection to the community, with the added comfort of knowing you’re staying in a space that has always been about family, tradition, and togetherness.

We believe this area represents the best of South Bend—history, growth, and community spirit—all within minutes of one of the most iconic universities in the country.

What makes our property stand out is its rare combination of space, comfort, and entertainment. Unlike most homes in the area, we can comfortably accommodate up to 15 guests across five spacious bedrooms, making it ideal for large families, reunions, and game-day groups.

The home is newly renovated and continues to grow with our guests’ feedback. Most recently, we added a second bathroom (September 2024) to make mornings easier for big groups. Every detail is designed to help our guests feel at home while enjoying modern conveniences.

Our private arcade and game room is a guest favorite, offering retro classics like Pac-Man, Street Fighter, and NFL Blitz, plus cloud gaming with access to hundreds of Xbox titles—something for every age group to enjoy.

We’re proud to offer top-of-the-line amenities, constant improvements, and a space that blends relaxation with fun. It’s not just a stay—it’s an experience.
