We LOVE staying here and have made so many great family memories cooking, playing games and hanging out on the screened in porch. It's the BEST and we plan on booking again for Labor Day!!
We went for a dog show in South Bend, but wanted to spend time near Lake Michigan as well. This was the perfect location to do bothâless than 30 minutes either direction. Really nice to have rooms all on the first floor, with 2 bathrooms. It was perfect for us.
This was the perfect place to stay for our trip to South Bend to watch the Notre Dame football game. There was more than enough room for the 6 of us to sleep, spread out, relaxâŠwhatever! The fire pit was wonderful on a nice fall evening. Our host was so helpful in so many ways. We definitely plan to stay here when we come to the area again!
This house has a great location for attending games and events at the University of Notre Dame. Communication with the owner was great and timely. There was plenty of room for four adults and three kids.
We stayed at the house because my family is from the area and we were meeting with local family members. The house was convenient to everything and had all we needed for a comfortable stay. Jennifer was a fantastic host and we enjoyed our time very much.
This rental was perfect for my husband and his brother and two friends to use while visiting South Bend for a long weekend. They loved the accommodations, had beautiful weather for golfing, & saw the Irish win!
Property was very clean and there was ample space for our family/friend group to gather together. Jenifer is very responsive and communication was excellent. I would stay here again for a Notre Dame Football weekend.
A wonderfully enjoyable weekend stay, quaint, comfortable, and peaceful. We stayed up talking late into the night on the screened in porch and played trivia around the oak dining table. Not to mention a beautiful day on nearby Lake Michigan. All in all a memorable weekend.
Everything was great with fresh flowers out for our arrival. Jenifer was responsive and very quick to help when we needed her to do so. She left fresh fruit for us for breakfasts. The house was spacious and welcoming. The kitchen was nicely equipped. Everyone loved the place.
Property was clean and comfortable. Fire pit and back deck were enjoyable. Kitchen was outfitted properly. Overall nice. Host communicated quickly and kindly.
This was like stepping back in time to a cozy little country house. The yard and landscaping was absolutely beautiful and the house was quiet and cozy.
I rented this for the weekend to host a baby shower and Jenifer was exceptionally accommodating, communicative, and flexible with us. Utilizing the outdoor back patio ended up creating the most intimate and beautiful shower atmosphere.
We stayed for Notre Dame graduation weekend. Seven adults were comfortable in the home. There is a grocery store close by and ND campus is 15 miles (about 30 minutes w/ traffic). The backyard was well kept with a fire pit and yard games. The property met out needs perfectly.
This comfortable house and property was wonderful for my family of four, my brother, and our parents. We were able to participate in the Friday fun on campus at Notre Dame and then the game but come back to rest and relax. We thoroughly enjoyed the backyard space, ALL the amenities provided, and the warm comfort of a home. We ordered excellent pizza and wings from the Billy Goat 9 and Dine local restaurant. We would definitely stay here again! Thanks to the hosts!
The Kaneâs Property was everything described and much more!!!
We stayed at the Kanes residence and it was a wonderful experience. Jenifer was very accommodating and willing to help at any moment. The house was very clean and exactly as described. There is plenty to do in the area and the house and yard are very quiet if you need down time. I give our stay here 2 thumbs up and would come back and stay again. Great experience 10/10
We stayed at the Kanes Guesthouse for a nearby family reunion. Host Jenifer is very courteous and communicative. Property is charming and comfortable and clean. This listing was pet friendly, a hard thing to find, and it was great to be able to bring our dog here. One thing to note is that there is a small farm adjacent to the property with livestock, depending on temperament, you may need to plan to exercise your pet off the property. A pleasant stay and host, I recommend this listing.
It was a very nice rental home with a beautiful yard & peacocks visited from next door. They were fun to watch. We attended the boat races at Michigan City beach. So the rental was about 20-25 min drive. Very doable. Would return there again.
Jennifer, the owner, was very responsive to any inquiries and very personable. The place was nice, perfect for the five of us to stay for a wedding we attended close by. Beautiful gardens and grounds, nice outdoor areas - would have loved to have been able to take more advantage of them but with the wedding amd a heat index of over 100, we didn't get to use the outside too much. Three bedrooms, four queen size beds, kitchen and two bathrooms. Family room with books, games and TV to use. Great selection of drinks and snacks for us when we arrived - in addition to basics like milk, cream, butter, OJ, coffee. Our daughter and SIL were able to bring their beagle with them and he loved the grounds, too. Overall a very positive experience and we would return if the opportunity presents itself.
My family (grown children), their significant others, and I booked a stay at this beautiful New Carlilse home for our Notre Dame football game weekend. It was as advertised - wonderful - and more. As we pulled up through acres of cornfields and family farms, we were greeted by deer scampering across the road, and a five-star sunset! The grounds were lovely, with very nice landscaping.
The interior of the home was so inviting! There were several great little intimate spots in and around the house where we could gather or sit peacefully alone, including a cozy family room and an inviting fire pit area. The beds were comfortable, and all of us slept very well.
About 25 minutes from the Notre Dame campus without traffic. And it's much faster than taking the 'regular routes' to the game. Back roads get you to the game quickly!
Thanks again to the hosts!
We have stayed at this property many times while visiting Hudson Lake as our lake house is under construction. It is cozy, spacious, warm, and inviting! My youngest son described it perfectly, itâs like getting a hug from grandma. I would recommend this rental to any family!!! Beds are super comfy too:)
This property was perfect for our small family group for a weekend at Notre Dame. Not too far away, well priced, enough bedrooms and bathrooms, a kitchen for breakfast, and space to hang out together.The welcoming sign was lovely!
I purchased the home in 2014 after my parents passed. The home was hand built by my father and holds many dear family memories for my brothers Pat, Jon and Mitch and I. We all grew up in the home and attended New Prairie High School and were active in sports and many community activities. My husband Steve and I currently live in Augusta, Michigan which is near the Kalamazoo area.
This property is ready to rent and enjoy with your family and friends. It is located in the country and provids a peaceful setting to unwind or enjoy a cookout or if you prefer....one of the multiple restaurants that New Carlisle has to offer. The property is located directly across the road from the wedding venue "The Homestead" which would allow you easy access to prepare for the big event or to stay with your family or friends.
