Beautiful stay in Amherstburg

We chose this place due to the location overlooking the river and close to downtown and family we were visiting. We thoroughly enjoyed the home and loved the front porch and its views of the river, so nice to enjoy a morning coffee and wine at night! Everything about this place is great! The beds were comfortable, bathrooms very nice and the kitchen was stocked with everything you need. The host was easy to get in touch with if we had any questions. Highly recommend this beautiful little find in Amherstburg!

Great View

Very comfortable, clean and cozy for 6 adults to relax after a stressful and sad time of spending many hours at the funeral home. We will recommend this home to others coming down to SW Ontario

Girls get away weekend

Our stay here was wonderful. Michelle was a pleasure to work with, booking was a smooth process and Michelle responded quickly to our messages and requests. Everything was perfect. Quiet safe neighbourhood, with a beautiful view of the river. The inside of the house was clean and inviting. It easily accommodated the 5 of us.

Paradise Found

What a wonderful experience this 5 day excursion turned out to be! The house has been tastefully renovated, with every attention to detail to make visitors feel pampered. A fully stocked kitchen makes meal preparation easy, or it's a 5 minute drive to the many dining choices in the downtown core. Our hosts even went out of their way to bring us coffee and muffins when a brief power outage occurred! The front deck with a water view is spacious and comfortable seating areas are provided as well. We watched our pup playing in the backyard while we sat on the back deck, so our "furbaby" had a vacation as well. We will definitely be returning to this "Paradise Found"
