As featured on CBS’s Staycation Sports, The Rockne House is more than a themed rental—it’s a full-blown football experience, crafted for families, fans, and tradition-seekers alike. Located just one mile from Notre Dame Stadium on iconic Rockne Drive, this legendary stay sleeps up to 18 guests and was designed by Pigskin Journeyman to honor the heart of Fighting Irish football while delivering unforgettable comfort and fun for groups of all kinds.

Here’s a fun fact for the diehards: The Rockne House sits at 2121 Rockne Drive—the same street number as the Pro Football Hall of Fame: 2121 George Halas Drive. Two football legends. Two iconic addresses. One legendary stay.

Whether you're here for a game, graduation, reunion, or summer getaway, The Rockne House is ready to host your crew in style. Enjoy a massive 10-person hot tub, a private Football Flicks cinema with 110 screen and surround sound, and a backyard built for play—with a fire pit, basketball hoop, and BBQ deck. Indoors, you'll find a game room with pool, Pop-a-Shot, Football Toss, and walls lined with nostalgic touches that make every guest feel like part of the team.

The home offers five spacious bedrooms with KING memory foam beds, comfortably sleeping up to 18 guests. A fully stocked kitchen makes group meals easy, and multiple flat-screen TVs throughout the house are loaded with NFL+ Premium, Max, Hulu, Disney+, and Prime—perfect for watch parties, movie nights, or just unwinding after the game.

Whether you’re building memories with your kids or reliving your college days, The Rockne House is your home field advantage in the heart of Fighting Irish country.

    The location was as advertised and worked perfectly for our group. The communication with the owner was great and made for a seamless experience.

    Overall, this worked fine for a couple nights for 7 guys. Games in the basement were great, plenty of beds, communication from the host was good. However, we were let down based on the listing -- there is a lot of work that needs to be done on the house (one shower was super finnicky, pots and pans were scarce and not very clean, fridge was questionably cold, one of the chairs in the back was missing a leg, etc.). That plus the grill being in really bad shape and the basketball court/grill area being right next to a ton of stinky garbage. For the price, I was expecting much more, and we would have had a tough time if we had tried to fit the 18 people the listing says there's capacity for or if we had done the trip with wives and kids.

    This VRBO home exceeded all expectations. The host was responsive and helpful, making check-in and check-out a breeze. It felt like a true home away from home. We’re already planning our next visit!Highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a comfortable, clean, and stylish getaway.

    Beds were comfortable, home was clean and well stocked with linens, towels, kitchen utensils and items, and loads of activities and games for the family. Even had candy, sodas(), and complimentary popcorn in the home theater. We had a ball!The hot tub was a big selling point for us because everyone was coming a great distance. The photos looked great but admittedly it was not the high point of the trip. The owners were very responsive to any questions we had. It is an older home that has been beautifully updated but be aware sound travels a lot. We could hear everything from our bedroom and what was happening downstairs and the HVAC was quite noisy.

    We enjoyed the house as a way for our 13 yr old to have a weekend get away with his buddies for his bday party. Chose the house since there was plenty of entertainment indoors in February but had outdoor activities in case there was warmer weather. The basement is a teen boy’s paradise! They loved it!

    The property was everything it was listed to be. Communication with the owner was easy. The location was ideal as it was close to every place we needed to go within South Bend. We rnjoyed our stay and would recommend staying at this property.

    Great house to stay in while visiting South Bend. Beds/linens extremely clean, house overall is very clean and comfortably fits a large family/group of friends. Convenient to all stores and to Notre Dame campus -a short walk or a quick car ride. We highly recommend this property and would consider renting again on our next visit.

    From the beginning, instructions and information about the house were easy to find and navigate including the hot tub, grill and movie theater. We had a great experience. Would highly recommend to a friend.

    We arrived on a Friday and the cleaning lady was still there at 3:30 which for us was good because she explained how the front door lock worked. Handles on most of the outside doors were very lose and one even fell off , my husband fixed it . Other doors inside were very lose and didn't lock if there was a lock. Very disappointed with the bathroom situation , I knew there were only 2 but none in the basement where there were so many sleeping areas. Kitchen was overall needing help ,cabinet doors ready to fall off , sink not scrubbed ( use some Bar Keepers Friend powder it would work. Laundry room had piles of dirty sheets and towels and towels in dryer , wet sheets in washer , I would have liked to do a load of laundry but not going to touch what was there. It was lucky for us we only slept there and the beds were fine , we had breakfast and were gone for the day to family activities. In my opinion you needs to have a handy man come and fix all the wear and tear this house has seen. Also the TV upstairs wouldn't work , we could turn it on on the side of it but had no ability to change channels or volume......Please make a manual for all items that guests would need to know how to work. We had young adults that are very tech savvy and they were stumped, we tried changing battries etc.
