This was a perfect location for visiting our son and niece who were competing in tournaments at ND. Our group included grandparents, parents and siblings, plenty of space for everyone. We would definitely stay here again!
Carol’s property was perfect for our family of teens and pups! The back yard was fenced in and the perfect place for our three pups to run and play. The location was ideal for us with plenty of options for eating and shopping nearby.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this house. There was plenty of room for 6 adults. We were very happy with the bedroom arrangements and the 2 1/2 baths. Everything we needed was provided, even use of the attached garage. The location was perfect for us too -close to restaurants, shops and the university. We would definitely stay again!
This is by far the best experience we've had so far. The home was beautiful and clean.The host was extremely responsive to any questions we had. Would stay again if I had the opportunity.
Wonderful home. Plenty of room for all of our family. Large backyard with outdoor furniture. Carol replied quickly to any questions we had about the home. I found the beds to be comfortable.
We would definitely stay here again!
We had an excellent experience at the huddle house. The host Carol was very attentive. The house was incredibly clean and well stocked. It was a safe space for one of our handicapped family members as well as children. Overall, a great fit for our group! We will definitely stay there again in the future.
This property was perfect for our familiy stay! The house was clean and Carol seemed always available if we needed anythying. The location was also convenient as it was very close to the University and our kids. Thank you Carol for making our holiday merry and bright!
Had a short weekend visit with our son who attends Notre Dame in early March. The Huddle House was clean, spacious and well equipped. There was plenty of room and the yard was amazing for our dog - fully fenced and tons of room.
Location is great - close to the school, shops, grocery, etc.
Carole was great to work with and was very responsive with our last minute booking.
Would definitely stay again!
Came to watch women’s NCAA basketball and celebrate a birthday. House was great and very comfortable. Just as listed. Everything was clean, and labeled instructions around the house is so helpful. Carol is a fantastic host!! We all had a great time and the pup had fun chasing birds and squirrels in the backyard. Highly recommend!
One of our favorite VRBO stays! The house was spacious, well-appointed, and clean. The yard was also very large - I look forward to returning and taking advantage of the firepit, etc. Buried under a foot of snow during this visit! The owners were very helpful and responsive as well. We got stuck in the area due to weather and highway shut-down.. and they very quickly responded and extended our stay. This was greatly appreciated, as we were traveling with a dog.We look forward to our next visit!
Great house, great location, great owner. Couldn't ask for more! The big backyard with the fire pit was a highlight. We will be back!

The BEST house we've rented!
We just came home from our second stay in the Huddle House and we can't recommend it enough! We love how spacious it is and no matter how many people are staying with us, it never feels cramped. The beds are all very comfortable and there are plenty of pillows and blankets. The kitchen is very roomy and well-equipped, and there is plenty of space for people to eat. We love the huge TVs in the living room and den. Perfect for watching the game or movies. We also can't say enough great things about the outdoor space. The back yard is beautiful and large. Our family loved gathering around the fire pit at night and our dog loved the freedom. There is plenty of comfortable furniture as well as a small grill for outdoor gatherings. The solar string lights create a wonderful atmosphere, too!
I'd like to add that Carol is an amazing host and is always happy to help- she is so friendly and consistently replies to any of our questions within a few minutes.
We're already looking forward to our next stay in the Huddle House!
