South Bend, Indiana: 95 miles east of Chicago

Though it’s home to the Fighting Irish, it’s not all football in South Bend. The St. Joseph River provides a great place for water sports and serves as a sparkling backdrop for a weekend of shopping and dining in the hometown of the University of Notre Dame.
