About this property

Private Coachhouse + Hot Tub in the heart of Niagara

1912 – Villa Niagara was built as the premier farm homestead of Grantham district, and the Coachhouse was built for farm help housing and storage.

Today, housing has replaced the farmland but the original home and Coachhouse remain on one property as one of the last original farm homes of that area. The Coach House has been converted into living quarters, now containing 2 cozy one-bedroom units.

The Coachhouse has undergone a complete renovation, and we've re-created the lower unit for your upcoming Niagara vacation. We’ve anticipated all your holiday needs by incorporating amenities important to you such as bedroom access to a private outdoor “courtyard” complete with your own private hot tub. A compact laundry center, WIFI, Bell TV & multiple HD TV’s - everything is completely new, from the full kitchen, to the custom tiled bathroom.

You’ll be conveniently central to all the desirable areas in Niagara such as Niagara Falls, Niagara-on-the-Lake, wineries, Port Dalhousie, and close walking distance to Lock 1 of the Welland Canal and the canal trail stretching from Lake Ontario to Lake Erie.

We live in the original farm home to the left of the Coachhouse, and can assist you when required to help you make the most of your vacation.

A lovely retreat

The property was super cute and well located between Niagara Falls and Toronto. Downtown St Catherine’s was also close and nice to go to. We also went for some walks very close near the property. We really enjoyed having a private space, especially the kitchen and the hot tub!

Perfect getaway

This is the best place we have ever stayed on VRBO. It was immaculately clean and tidy. The location was great to see and do everything we had planned. It's private and safe place. Sherri was a great host, answering my questions about beaches and restaurants. If we ever visit that area again we're definitely going to stay there.

Charming coach house - worth booking!

Hosts Sherrie and Carl have thought of everything you will need to make your accommodation memorable, including local artifacts and books in area. Ideal location to Niagara-on-the-Lake and the falls. Three night stay is recommended to see the local area. Kitchen is well stocked for cooking in unit or BBQ. Photos are accurate, but you need to see this property live to experience its full beauty. If we were to return to this area we would book again. Louise and Richard BC Canada

About the host

Hosted by Carl and Sherrie

Host profile image
We're proud parents of 3 lovely kids and crazy about our 5 grand daughters and one grandson!

Old homes have been our interest so when we had the chance to acquire the largest original farm estate in Grantham district, along with it's Coach House, we jumped at the chance!

We've combined our favourite TV show, HGTV's "Fixer Upper", and our renovation skills to provide your what we hope is a unique relaxing experience.

We enjoy local history, so we've amassed a small collection of old, very unique books about local history regarding the Falls, the Welland Canal, Niagara-on-the-Lake etc, so we know you'll enjoy those!

We love the water, Carl is a SCUBA diver - always seeking old treasures on the bottom of the Niagara River. Sherrie loves day-tripping to local antique stores, seeking a new "find"!

We hope you'll schedule your next trip with us.

Why they chose this property

The entire space is your own! From the cozy front porch, the relaxing courtyard & hot tub with access from your bedroom. You are central to all enjoyable areas of Niagara - trails, the lake, wineries and restaurants.

We'll provide a couple bikes for your use during your stay.

What makes this property unique

You’ll be only a short troll away from Lake Ontario, Lock 1 of the Welland Canal, and your gateway to Niagara-on-the-Lake. Central to all the desirable areas such as Niagara Falls, Niagara-on-the-Lake wineries, Port Dalhousie.

As a guest, you'll enjoy free access to bikes, tandem kayak (advance notice required!).
