Wonderful visit

Beautiful, spacious historical home in a charming town. Traveled to Buffalo for a wedding but were so glad to be in the peaceful town of Ridgeway!

Great property and location

We stayed at the house because we were attending a wedding reception in Port Colborne. The house was perfect. It was spacious and met all our needs. It is in walking distance to the shops/restaurants in Ridgeway and is a short drive to Crystal Beach. We would stay there again.

Sibling reunion

We selected the property because of the updated bathrooms and air conditioning but this home offers so many additional comforts! We loved the multiple cozy seating areas and access to the town of Ridgeway. We walked to the Farmers market escaping a Summer thunderstorm- we waited out the rain sitting under the covered outdoor patio, then went back to explore when the rain stopped!

EXCELLENT

The house was as described.All facilities clean and modern. Plenty of soap, dishwasher tablets, laundry liquid,toilet rolls and coffie and tea. Much more than normal in a rental property. Sunny consevatory for morning breakfast.Good size kitchen appliances.Wifi fast and reliable. House is within walking distance of Ridgeway where there are a few shops and cafes. Highly recommend the saturday farmers market, particularly the hot samosas. Short drive to the lakeside which has a payable beach. Plenty of museums to visit around the area and not far from the madhouse of Niagara Falls. Overall an excellent house in a quiet residential location. Next to a school but caused no problems. In fact an assett as evenings were quiet. Highly recommended
