Wonderful place!

We had a very comfortable stay at the Tiny Cottage! It had all the amenities we needed, and our son LOVED the loft! Our only issue was arriving after dark and there was no address listed on the house so it took us some time to locate the correct location. However, the hosts were waiting up for us and came over to help us get in and situated. We are already looking forward to another stay here in the future!

Great comfortable place

We were in town for a concert at Darien Lake. This place was only about 10 mins away. About 45 mins from Niagara Falls. Home was pretty nice. I love “tiny homes” and there was plenty of space. There is a loft as well if someone has kids. We walked to a local restaurant that had an amazing breakfast. Would love to stay here again.

We stayed at this cute little cottage/house with our family of 4! My husband and sons are over 6ft tall so we had a little giggle when we opened the door. The place is small but it worked for us. It was modern, very clean, quiet and had everything we needed! We enjoyed our stay and would definitely stay there again! The owners of the property live next door and they are wonderful and kind people!! The neighbourhood is clean and quiet!

Very cozy, clean, and host (Theresa) was very friendly. It was a quick visit for us, but all the accommodations were very much appreciated! I highly recommend for a couples retreat to a remote retreat away, rural town or 2-3 girlfriends weekend. Not to mention the the Wellness Spa across the street ♥️

Cute and clean

We needed a place to stay overnight close to Darien Lake Six Flags, and found this which was perfect because it was roughly a 12 minute drive from the park. The place was cute, and clean, in a very quiet neighborhood ( huge bonus there!) It is close to railroad tracks so we did hear trains passing, but that did not bother us at all. Kitchen was well stocked with things if you wanted to prepare meals. The only thing that we didn’t care for was the essential oil burner that had eucalyptus. ( that’s what it smelled like) Being such a small place, the smell was very strong and we did turn that off because it gave me a headache. I’m just sensitive to strong smells, so that’s not really a negative thing… most people would probably love it. I just couldn’t have it running overnight. We stayed there with 2 adults and 2 children ages 7 & 9. There was one full size bed on the ground floor, and one single size air mattress in the loft that the kids shared. They didn’t mind but another mattress in the loft would have been more comfortable. You have to park across the street at a business that is also owned by the hosts, but because it’s a quiet neighborhood and seemed very safe, this wasn’t a big deal. All in all we enjoyed our overnight stay and would recommend it.
