License # 045-2020
Just steps from beautiful Lake Ontario, this is a newly decorated 3 bedroom house. Including 2 brand new bathrooms (2017) We offer all the amenities of home including a full kitchen and large dining room. A spacious living room that overlooks expansive green space and features a cozy gas fireplace. It is located in a very quiet area of town yet still very close to all the town has to offer. The house is a short walk to Lakeside Park that offers lots of grassy area to picnic as well as a small beach where you can take a dip in the lake. Also, just a short walk away is the historic Niagara-on-the-Lake Golf Course with it's beautiful lake view and challenging links. Can't wait to host you!

Great, comfortable property. Location was awesome!!
Just a family trip to see Niagara Falls. Location is close enough to Niagara by the lake to get into town in minutes. Lake is a few hundred feet away. Far enough from town so very tranquil. Sandra is a great host, really made the stay enjoyable, thank you Sandra.

Beautiful location
The location was perfect, and it was easy to get in and out. The place had three real bedrooms which was awesome. A little sparse on the supplies, in the name of ecology, but we managed fine.

Great quiet location
The property was perfect for 2 couples spending time in wine country. Great location with the water and a small beach a short walk down the street. The house had everything we needed and we really loved spending quiet time in the backyard. Just the mini-getaway we were looking for!!

Our family felt very comfortable during our stay here. The house was well-appointed and clean, just as we had expected it to be. The proximity to the lake and small park was about a minute, and downtown was a pleasant walk. I would definitely stay here again!

Wonderful stay!
The location is woodsy and quiet right by the lake, and it’s a lovely long walk into the town. The house had plenty of room for us to spread out and was clean and well supplied. Sandra was very responsive to questions. Would stay here again.

Great location
Nice property for the most part. It was fairly well appointed (no tea pot but the owner brought one immediately when we contacted her). We enjoyed cooking on the barbeque. The back yard was a bit disappointing however we were out exploring the beautiful area around Niagara-on-the-Lake so it didn't matter. Overall we did enjoy our stay.

Fantastic Stay!
Just returned from a girls weekend and this place exceeded our expectations. Beautiful home and plenty of space for the 5 of us. We lucked out with beautiful weather and enjoyed sitting in the backyard sipping on Niagara's finest wines. 2 spacious bathrooms for 5 women was a bonus and the upstairs shower was fantastic! The location was wonderful and within steps of Lake Ontario where we thoroughly enjoyed the sunsets. It is a little ways from downtown Niagara on the Lake - about a 25 minute walk, but when you have scenery like that, it's nothing but enjoyable. Only a couple of minutes to get to downtown by car. If we had any questions or issues, the host responded immediately. I would definitely stay there again.

Perfect Location!!
We absolutely loved staying here! More than we expected as far as location. Close to old town and enjoyed riding around the neighborhood looking at houses. We were able to bike to a number of wineries and walk to the lake was a hop, skip and a jump away!! The house was nicely done, totally updated and clean!

Lovely cottage in a great location
Our family group of 4 had a great stay in Sandra's cottage. The location just steps from the lake and a lovely waterfront park was great for taking a stroll. The next door neighbours were very nice and helpful when we had a shopping query. The cottage is very well equipped with plenty of glassware, dishes, pots, towels etc. The newly renovated bathrooms are very nice although the walkin shower floor was surprisingly slippery so we added a non skid mat to Sandra's inventory so make sure you use that. The Wifi worked great and although there is no traditional cable service for the TV's, we loved having access to Netflix for catching up with some shows in the evenings. The only reason I have not given this property 5 stars is because we had an ongoing issue with hot water. I suspect the on-demand system is not functioning optimally or if it is functioning by design it can't keep up to back to back showers. My Dad took a 5-10 minute shower and my sister started one immediately after but ran out of hot water 5 minutes in. It took nearly 30 minutes for more hot water to appear. I've advised Sandra of this via text after we departed so I assume that will be addressed. Otherwise, a great stay in a lovely spot to which we would most definitely return in the future. I don't think you will be disappointed if you choose to stay here. Thanks again, Sandra!

Well located, comfortable house near the lake. Our land lady was very responsive.
We enjoyed socializing and cooking in this house. It was nice having a Grill and adequate cookware. The dishwasher is not cleaning properly and leaves residue so we washed glassware by hand. The bathrooms were nice and modern but the floor was extremely slippery. We truly loved the beautiful flowers in the garden and watched sunsets over lake nightly. Wonderful house. Would stay here again!

Why they chose this property

We chose this property because of the quiet neighbourhood, close proximity to Lake Ontario and Ryerson park and the undeveloped forest scape in the back yard!
