Location was perfect. Walked to town and many of the local attractions. Fenced yard was wonderful and had enough room to set up croquet. Nothing was amiss so we didn’t have to contact the host or the rental agency. Enjoyed the property immensely.

Amazing location, clean, a bit dated

The house has a lot of charm and is in a great location so you can walk to the historic district. It’s roomy and well setup for a large family. Given that the home is older it does smell a bit musty. However, the house is very clean. The AC also is not consistent in the house as the first floor was quite cold but the upstairs bedrooms were much warmer. Some fans might help with this. The WiFi wasn’t reliable at all, but at least the fire stick on the tv in the living room worked well. However, if you’re planning to work remotely you’ll have to bring your own connection. Overall, none of the minor things above were dealbreakers and I would stay here again as the location and cleanliness were the major factors for my family and I.

Beautiful home and fantastic location

The house was excellent, and the unexpected benefit was the proximity to old town Niagara on the lake. The home was a short, five-minute walk to all the shops and restaurants and only an eight-minute walk to Lake Ontario. We loved it.

The location of this property cannot be beat. Close to everything there is to do in NOTL. The house itself is pretty dated — squeaky floors, terrible internet, tub not draining and outlets in strange places. There is a good bit of room in the house — several bedrooms. All told, I would recommend it, primarily for the location. If you need internet, absent an upgrade, this is not the place for you.

Stay at Abigail House

The property was easy to locate. The home was situatated perfectly where my family and I could walk to the lake and the quaint shops in the town. The house was clean and comfortable. All family members felt at home. The only thing i would say its the squeakiness of the stairs, aside from that my family and i enjoyed the home. We plan to do it again soon.
