Exceptionally memorable, surprisingly local: unforgettable vacations don't have to take you far from home. South Bend, Mishawaka and the surrounding communities are vibrant places to visit. Are you ready to start planning your next great road trip?
Dining
Destination food & drink
The Bend’s restaurant scene resists the cliché that there’s “a little bit of everything.” But if you want to find it here, you probably can. Locals love the pizza places, cozy breakfast spots, authentic taco joints and craft breweries. But there’s so much more, like a long-running AAA Four Diamond fine dining restaurant and Northern Indiana’s best burger. Don’t worry about going out on an empty stomach. It won’t stay that way.
Adventure
South Bend summer bucket list
Outdoor adventure, patio dining, baseball — these are just a few of the reasons why summer is for weekends you don’t want to end. It might be The Bend’s best season. You can splash down a whitewater rapids course in the heart of downtown South Bend, see giraffes up close at Potawatomi Zoo or catch live music. These are some of the activities in South Bend that will leave you thinking Mondays can wait.
Sightseeing
University of Notre Dame
Even if you’ve never visited The Bend, it’s still likely you know something about the University of Notre Dame. Its iconic campus is home to stunning natural beauty, breathtaking architecture and picturesque photo opportunities. A self-guided tour of campus is a must-do, even if it means visiting just a few of the top landmarks: The Main Building with its Golden Dome, the Basilica of the Sacred Heart and the Grotto of Our Lady of Lourdes. A more in-depth look reveals other buildings and public art that should be on your to-do list.
