Quiet oasis

A cozy place in the woods. Close to town and Colgate, but far enough away to be a quiet escape.

A real gem

We loved this apartment, which (with its birch floors, skylights, and window views of the woods) had a Nordic feel. Super clean, comfortable, and well-appointed. An easy, minutes-only drive into town. A wonderful host (Astrid). Perfect for Colgate parents and other visitors to the area. So glad we stayed here.

Lovely quiet place off the beaten track

The room was immaculate! The room is over the home's garage, but skylights make the space well lit. Comfortable, easy to find, woods all around- I would stay there again, for sure.

Comfortable and Close to Colgate

My daughter was playing some hockey on the Colgate campus. This spot is perfect for a weekend in Hamilton. Besides the hockey we had a nice hike, saw live music, and experienced the Hamilton Film festival. We cooked a few meals in the apartment and slept well in the quiet of the woodsy setting. Stairs could be a challenge for elderly and shower is a tight fit for the big and tall. Our stay was excellent and would book again.
