Lovely weekend

Our family had a lovely weekend. The neighbourhood is stunning! Walking distance (25-30 mins) to the downtown area and a very short walk to the beautiful waterfront. We enjoyed barbecuing on Father’s Day and even saw a deer in the large backyard during morning coffee which was a highlight. The place was spotless and everything needed for a comfortable stay was provided. The only small thing that could be improved is heavier drapes on bedroom windows. We are light sleepers and the rooms were bright in the morning! The price is very reasonable for this area and we would book again in the future.

Great location for bike riding to wineries

We came to Niagara-on-the-lake for 2 nights. We brought our bikes to go to some of the wineries. The location was perfect and the house was great. The kitchen was stocked with everything we needed. Because it was split level it was nice only having to go up a couple of steps to the bedrooms. Would stay there again.

Exactly as described!

This property was clean and cozy. Specifically, I appreciated that sheets/towels were fresh and dishes were clean. It had everything you could need plus more - little touches like providing a Brita and some coffee made the stay that much more comfortable. Communication was prompt and directions provided about the property were easy to do. Would absolutely stay again - Thanks Cheryl!

Nice house in a perfect location.

A friend and I stayed four nights in this cute split-level house located in a beautiful quiet neighborhood. We were within walking distance from the Lake, park and places to eat, and a 25 minute drive from Niagara Falls. It was a very convenient location. The house was clean and the beds were comfortable. We were grateful that it had air-conditioning as it was very hot when we were there. We enjoyed our stay very much.
