Cute cottage in old town

We loved our stay at this cute cottage. It is actually much larger than we expected and lots of room for the entire family. We were 5 adults and we had plenty of room to sleep, dine and relax. The details in the decor and the cottage layout are great. We enjoyed the BBQ and found the kitchen to be stocked with everything needed to cook as needed. The location is perfect in a quiet neighborhood but just a short walk from the main street for shops and dinning in NOTL. The hosts were easy to reach and check in was a breeze. Would definitely recommend for a short stay with family or friends.

Great location

The house was clean & had the amenities we needed. We would have liked having a blender for smoothies for all the yummy fruits we got. We were close to the charming downtown so we could just walk to go shopping and found many wonderful restaurants.

We stayed for 3 nights, attending a wedding. Everything was great! Just one suggestion, trm back the shrubs lining the driveway as it was difficult to open car doors.

Niagara on the Lake

We loved our time at Niagara on the Lake. The location was perfect for our adventures. Overall, the cleanliness of the place was good but the slipcovers could have used a cleaning as well as the downstairs bathroom. The kitchen was well supplied and we had plenty of room to be together.

What a gorgeous historic house. We loved how you kept the charm of it intact, while providing enough modern conveniences to not make it challenging. The yard could use a little love (the vegetation needs a little trimming). The outdoor dining table has one leg that’s holding on by a thread. Maybe just fix it or replace it? Other than that it was a wonderful property.
