If you want to enjoy a peaceful stay with a Niagara Riverfront view and quick access to either Buffalo or Niagara Falls destinations then this is a must stay! The home decor is both exquisite and impeccably clean with your every need met and all communication with the host was rapidly responsive. Check in and out was easy and the kitchen and entire home is well stocked. I was born and raised in North Tonawanda and I brought my clan of 10 from the PNW to celebrate my 70th birthday. I wanted my grandchildren to experience some of my same cherished childhood memories and this riverviewcottage was the perfect home. We will definitely return! A more than 5 star rating! Thank you for sharing your home!
