Introduction

The Victorian romance of The Oliver Inn Bed & Breakfast reflects the lives and times of South Bend's most famous families, the Studebakers (wagons & automobiles) and the Olivers (the world-famous Oliver Chilled Plow and tractors).

While Clem Studebaker was busy in August of 1880 building the foundation for his castle/home, "Tippecanoe Place", James Oliver acquired the adjoining property. Here he built a spacious 10,000 sq. ft. "Queen Anne" style home and had it gifted along with its one acre grounds to his daughter, Josephine Oliver Ford, for "$1.00 and LOVE."

The Oliver Inn, located in the historic downtown district of South Bend, just 90 minutes from Chicago, and only 3 miles from the 80/90 Indiana Toll Road Exit. #77, sits right next door to the famous Tippecanoe Place Restaurant (Studebaker Mansion).

Carriage From the moment you pull into its stately circular drive and up to the grand porte-cochere, the Oliver Inn will gently nudge you back into the grandeur of another time. Shaded by more than thirty tall maple trees, this 25 room estate is one of South Bend's most treasured local historical landmarks and was home to the Oliver families for over 100 years.

The Oliver Inn Bed & Breakfast offers a "Turn of the Century" feeling with all of today's most important amenities. Choose from among nine beautifully furnished rooms with private baths, or our newly renovated, two bedroom two bath, Carriage House Suite. Several feature the warmth of a built-in fireplace, private balcony or whirlpool for two.
