Come Discover South Bend & Mishawaka IN

We’re excited to show you more about The Bend, a place where we encourage you to explore both the well-known and the roads less traveled. The University of Notre Dame and St. Joseph River are two of our defining features. But there is much more in our cities, towns and open spaces. No matter how you choose to explore, this is a place to embrace life’s simple pleasures. After all, Mondays can wait.
