What travellers are saying
- Vork TravelSaint Louis, MO337 contributionsThis place is awesome! The Studebaker and History Museum are within the same building, but they are two separate costs and experiences. We only had time for the Studebaker Museum, and it was amazing! It is really well done, and there is so much cool history to learn. Of course, there are tons of beautiful and interesting vehicles and artifacts to see! Highly recommend!Written 31 July 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- John TSouth Saint Paul, MN146 contributionsSimply absolutely beautiful. It was obviously restored and the University did an excellent job in doing so. If you are visiting campus, it is a must do.Written 2 July 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Ty ACambridge, MA282 contributionsWas there for game and it was exquisite! Nothing like a game at touchdown Jesus. Highly recommend. There is no holier site when it comes to football. Granted they’ve been up and down as as of late, but any game at Notre Dame is definitely a religious experience, no pun intended.Written 25 August 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Bruce M.Harrow, Canada21 contributionsA tour of this place was include in the price of admission to the Studebaker museum. Starting off with a video of the history of the family who made their fortune making field plows and building this house to when the house was donated to the city. The house and all its furnishings were donated when the last surviving family member died at the age of 99. Everything which included their clothing, artworks, dishes, silverware, etc. was handed over to the city and museum. The house itself is quite impressive and the interior is very opulent. Words cannot adequately describe the many rooms and items on display. It has to be seen to be believed. If you only see one thing in South Bend, this is the place to see.Written 30 July 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Lesley F30 contributionsAbsolutely stunning. If visiting Notre Dame for any reason it’s worth a quick stop. They ask for a $3 donation to replace candles if you use one.Written 17 July 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- drob1146Muskegon, MI6 contributionsWhen we paid and asked a question we felt like we were interrupting the zoo staff. The zoo itself was okay. Made for an interesting day. I wish I could report a great view but unfortunately customer service is not what it use to be.Written 17 September 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Sherry CWadsworth485 contributionsVery nice ballpark and like most minor league teams, very family friendly. There is paid parking available, but we parked on the street for free and only had to walk a few blocks to the ballpark. (Well, one of us had to walk back to the car because one of our group thought we could take food (peanuts) into the park, and he was wrong.) There is a great playground for kids (ticket required) and also a splash pad that anyone can enjoy, and it was great since the temp the day we were there was very hot. Tickets are very reasonably priced for the games and the stadium is very clean. Lots of fun. Would have been more enjoyable if the Cubs won, but that wasn't the case.Written 28 July 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Nancy KSouth Bend, IN12 contributionsMy Ohio family visited and had fun rafting at the East Race. It is very reasonably priced entertainment.

- Tim WPeru, IN397 contributionsThe Compton Family Ice Arena is a great venue for hockey! I had not been to a Notre Dame hockey game since before this venue had opened and what a pleasant surprise it was for us. It starts with extremely easy parking that left us with a very short walk to the entrance of the facility. There is not a bad seat in the venue and you feel like you are right on the ice! This may have been because it was winter break at the university, but they invited all attendees to move to the lower section after the first period. That was just one of many nice touches by the staff at the game.Written 2 January 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
