A beautiful well appointed spot in Burlington. Easy walking onto Brant St restaurants and shops as well as the waterfront. Spacious rooms with clean stylish furniture. Kitchen is small but has most everything you need and only one shower but we had no problems for our family gathering. Plenty of private parking. Hosts were very responsive, kind and attentive. A very nice place to stay.

This is a lovely home. Well appointed, clean, and a wonderful location. Dog friendly too. I was a little concerned that the bathroom with the shower was in the master bedroom, but it wasn’t an issue. Would stay there again.
