The Oliver Inn Bed & Breakfast

This was a first Traditional trip this year and after the wondered experience I will do it again next January! 24 hours off the grid .. no phone .. no tv .. no electronics! Loved the garden tub & the fireplace in my room! Such a beautiful and quaint bed-and-breakfast! Charming!|Even the breakfast was a phenomenal experience… the attention to details made me feel like I was back in the Victorian era! Love, love love this place. I would recommend this to anyone!

The Oliver Inn was a magical experience. Service was friendly and personable. Tom and Alice were lovely hosts and we were perfectly accommodated. The Inn itself was beautiful and well maintained. Historic details were present throughout, along with beautiful Christmas decorations. It felt like stepping into a hallmark movie! Thank you for a wonderful stay, wishing you and your family a very merry Christmas!

The 4th (or maybe 5th?) visit for my wife & me to The Oliver Inn over the last 10 years, and what was at first an intriguing South Bend lodging option for sporting event visits to Notre Dame has since become: "Let's drive up and stay at Alice & Tom's place for the extended weekend, and explore the area & go to a couple of hockey games while we're in the neighborhood."

Alice gave us a friendly tour on arrival and directions to our destination, short walk. Fun to look around the house and speculate on changes, what is original and how well it has been updated, but still mostly original. Recommend staying

It’s October 2025; time for my annual filing, no, not of tax returns, rather my review of Alice and Tom Erlandson and the Oliver Inn. I do this every year. You can go back and see my prior reviews. I do it, not because I have to, or because someone asked me to do so. I write these reviews because we love the Oliver Inn. Except for the Covid years this would have been our 19th year in a row and we cannot wait for #20. ||It all starts with Tom and Alice; gracious, wat, welcoming and charming for sure; but also professional, efficient, knowledgeable, calm and on top of every element of the hospitality experience. They seem to anticipate your every need. Amazing service! And, fantastic, fresh-baked chocolate chip cookies. ||The rooms all have old world charm with all the modern amenities. A
