About this property

Niagara Mansion Carriage Suite

The Carriage Suite. is a cozy suite created from the original mansion's carriage space and has everything you will need for a comfortable stay . The Suite does not share any common doors or interior space with Mansion but does share the 2 acre Property grounds . Suite guests have private use of West Terrace (2000 sq ft) with River View. Just 6 miles from the iconic Niagara Falls, this Greek Revival Mansion built in 1815 sits on 2 acres of grounds in the Village of Lewiston overlooking the Niagara Gorge. Completely renovated and updated the suite includes has a fully equipped kitchen, living room, bedroom, walk in closet, bathroom and separate half bath , fireplace, wood floors, private entrance and french doors. Step outside and you are surrounded by 2 acres of beautiful grounds, terraces and just steps from the charming and picturesque Village of Lewiston. This part of the Mansion was built sometime between 1815 and 1825.

Lewiston is a charming, historic and picturesque Village perched on the edge of the Niagara Gorge overlooking the Niagara River and Canada beyond. The Village has many wonderful restaurants, one of a kind shops, performing arts center, a wonderful festival season and the best home made ice cream in the galaxy . Its very much a step back in time , very genuine and low key. The famed Whirlpool Jet Boats are just a block from the house at the beautiful Lewiston waterfront . World class golf , sailing and sports fishing are just within a few minutes. We are just 6 miles from the iconic Niagara Falls, 15 minutes from Wine Country, 15 minutes from Fashion Outlets (best outlet shopping ever!). . The Village and Gorge are spectacular in every season. You can hike the Gorge all year round. In the Fall the local autumn foliage is breathtaking and in winter walk the snow lined paths and skate at the Village ice rink to music with a cup of hot chocolate. The Performing Arts Center has a wonderful and varied concert season and outdoor amphitheater with famous bands every Tuesday night. Nearby is the incredible French Castle at Fort Niagara built in 1723 year round events

Great carriage house close to everything

My husband and I were in town for a wedding. Carriage house was absolutely perfect for us! Very walkable to many shops, restaurants, and the river. Kitchen was well stocked with all the basic amenities. Behalf bathroom was such a nice bonus. Home is historic and The property is Very nice with lots of seating areas outside. Peaked into some of the windows around the main house and that looks just as lovely. Communication and contact with host was excellent!!

Spacious accommodations for a couple. Good location

Within 15 minutes of our arrival, we had our wine and cheese arranged on the patio facing the Niagara River watching the sun set. It was wonderful. The suite has plenty of room and we enjoyed spreading out in the several rooms. On the other hand, the kitchen was sparkly furnished and we had difficulty getting the shower to produce any meaningful amount of hot water. Maybe it was our problem.

Fantastic location for Niagara Falls/Lewiston Artpark

First, let me say that of the best experiences you can have on VRBO, all of them are predicated by a responsive, concerned property owner. The owner, Diane, was ready at all hours (it seemed) to answer questions, give advice, and just be helpful. I wish I could give the property a sixth star in that regard. The Carriage House is a fair-size apartment of the main mansion. The grounds are a work in progress, but what they have completed is beautiful. The mansion is gorgeous inside and out. The Carriage House itself consists of a large kitchen, an entry area that includes a 1/2 bath, a sitting room, a bedroom with TV, a large closet area and a full bath with shower. The Carriage House is appointed well and designed to take one back to a historical time. You will find updated appliances in the kitchen, but much of the rest of the apartment is antique - there is adequate lighting, good water pressure and heat, air conditioning and a gas fireplace for use during certain months of the year. Additionally, there is an outside courtyard that includes Adirondack chairs and a firepit. The Carriage House is designed for couples, but the sitting room has a large couch and there is a rollaway bed in the closet to accommodate children or additional adults. Niagara Falls and associated state parks are nearby, as is the town of Niagara Falls. The Canadian border is within about 10-15 minutes drive. We came to town for the Artpark for a concert and the venue is within a short walk.

Wanted to Love It

The carriage house is in a fantastic location, an easy walk to the village or the river. The outdoor areas are nice and there is plenty of parking. The owner was responsive to questions. Check-in was uneventful. The carriage house appears to be an older conversion with some updates. Strangely, there are 4 doors to the outside including two in the primary bedroom and one in the primary bathroom. The windows are all screwed shut so you need to keep a door open to get fresh air. Kitchen looked nice although we barely stepped into it. Half bath was clean and functional. Décor is quaint. Furniture is comfortable, albeit dated. Most everything is functional except as noted below. Light switch bingo will keep you occupied for a while. TV/Wi-Fi worked as advertised. Housekeeping was no more than average. Cobwebs in many corners. Walls and baseboards all need to be wiped down. The primary bathroom is significantly more rustic than we were comfortable with. It is very small with a door that opens directly outside. The shower is something you would find in an actual carriage house. The pictures in the listing do not do this room justice. Compounding the appearance, the shower faucet was broken. Taking a shower that didn’t freeze or scald you was a challenge. The owner passed on directions to use the faucet that eventually proved to be helpful. Also, the owner said that replacement was imminent. This bathroom would be a dealbreaker for any return visit.

Sounded better on paper

There were two unsightly wooden shelf units next to the front entrance. Why?? Storage should not be the first thing you see. The carpets were filthy. There was an old, delapidated chair in the living room. The TV was over the non-working fireplace in the bedroom. So you had to sit in a separate room to view the television. The place was surface cleaned only. There were spiders in most corners. There were many spiders in the shower; I have showered in better campground showers. The bamboo blinds in most rooms did not give privacy. You could easily see into the cottage. When in the kitchen, you could hear the people in the adjoining main house. There weren't any extra blankets or pillows. There were only two forks! Two?! We had to wash them each time we used them. The positives were the sheets and linen were properly clean and smelled good. The bed was comfortable.

Historical Charm!

We enjoyed our stay in this historical property! The little imperfections made it absolutely charming! We loved the beautiful peaceful outside areas and the view of the river was spectacular. Location to Center Street was only 2 blocks! So much activity going on every nite. Live music and great places to eat or sip on a drink! The communication with property manager was phenomenal. Diane gave us so much interesting information and great recommendations! Hate to let this little secret gem out of the bag! We could only hope to be able to return again someday.

Why they chose this property

This lovely Carriage House suite is part of an original historic Mansion over 200 years old which has seen many famous dignitaries such as the Marquis de Lafayette as well as had a front "porch " seat to key moments in American History. From the portage, to the War of 1812, and the Underground Railroad, this home as been a part of "living history". It is also in the heart of a charming Village and easy access to all the wonderful attractions of this extraordinary and unique area. It is seldom in our busy lives that we can step into the charm and grace afforded by this lovely Home sitting on 2 acres of beautiful grounds overlooking the spectacular Niagara Gorge.

What makes this property unique

easy stroll to the waterfront and wonderful Whirl Pool Jetboats, world class sports fishing and water view dining. Just a half block to wonderful local restaurants with locally sourced gourmet menus and equally close to more casual family dining as well. Five minute walk to the Artpark Performing Arts Center and just a few miles from wine country and Niagara Region attractions .
