The location of this home is excellent, short drive or walk to the little town of Niagra-on-the-lake which is so pretty and has great shops and restaurants. It's also close to many top wineries that we visited.The home is very spacious and was comfortable for our group of 4 ladies. We especially enjoyed the outdoor patio area for our coffees in the morning and happy hours in the afternoons.

The house is beautiful. Large rooms with plenty of room for 6 adults to live comfortably. Outstanding views of the river! And most importantly, an easy walk to shops and restaurants. So much to do with wineries a short drive away and of course the Shaw theatres for a play. We are already talking about another visit and stay at the Sanibel North house.
