Lovely cottage!

My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay at The Flying Cloud. The cottage is very comfortable, clean and cozy, and has a beautiful gas fireplace in the living room which kept the room warm and inviting. Diane, our host, was very helpful, she suggested places to eat and wineries to visit. We will certainly be returning for another visit!

The property was in close proximity to the village of Niagara on the Lake as well as easy to get to other areas. The cottage was perfect. Comfortable and clean and the hostess was fantastic in responding to any questions we had. We plan on staying there again when we get the chance.

Perfect Location

We happily spent a long weekend at the Flying Cloud Cabin in Niagara on the Lake. It is so comfy and cute. Every detail was top notch. Comfortable beds and furniture. Clean. Kitchen was well stocked for cooking. Even many books and magazines to enjoy while sitting in front of the gas fireplace. Close enough to walk down to the Lake front.

Mother/daughter retreat

The Flying Cloud could not be any more adorable if it tried. Absolutely everything you could need is provided to make your stay perfect...and I mean everything! Diane was very attentive and provided excellent communication with us at all times. Great recommendations for places to go and for dinner. Upon arrival we were greeted with a bottle of wine and a "bread" roll (for lack of better explanation of this delicious item!..Budapest Bakery is where it's from in town. We came home with 6 pieces) Thank you Diane for making this a perfect mother/daughter weekend for us!

Flying Cloud—where relationships are nurtured

Greeted by a welcoming porch light, freshly cut hydrangeas and the glow of candles, we entered Flying Cloud and were embraced by the warmth of a personally well curated space that honored the history of the home and community. Everything we needed was right at our fingertips including reminders to watch the sunset, lists of favorite places to eat and drink, as well as notes about local happenings! We will look back on this stay fondly and look forward to booking again.

Perfect Birthday Trip

After looking at several places in Niagara-on-the-Lake to stay for a few days for a special birthday with my husband, I decided on the Flying Cloud Cottage and it was definitely the best decision I could have made. Diane was a wonderful host and communicated so well with us and provided a folder filled with any information we would need on local restaurants, stores, activities, etc. From the time we walked in and found a birthday bottle of wine in the fridge and a “locally made Chimney Cake” of aged cheddar (which I highly recommend), our stay was magical. This beautiful cottage is equipped with everything you would ever need and then some. The fireplaces, the most comfortable bed, the designer bathroom and kitchen, the front sitting porch and back patio were all well above our expectations. One of our favorite things was feeding the squirrels in the backyards the peanuts provided by our host. We never wanted to leave but will definitely be back. Thank you, again, Diane for a wonderful stay. Denise and Steve

Cozy Cottage with Great Location

We had a great stay at the Flying Cloud. When we arrived, Diane had the fireplace going, music playing, flameless candles throughout, and a bottle of wine chilling in the fridge! The cottage is small, but very nicely decorated and cozy. The hosts had stocked up with every amenity we could think of, even peanuts and apples for the squirrels and deer. We we only a few houses down from the lakeshore at the end of the street and could see the Toronto skyline across the lake. There are lots of places to walk and we were very close to the historic downtown area. The Icewine Festival was going the weekend we were in town so that was fun! Diane was very attentive about checking in to see if we needed anything, giving recommendations, or offering to make reservations. We'd really like to visit again in the summer when we can spend more time outdoors and will definitely be staying at the Flying Cloud!

"Cloud Nine"

This cozy and well-appointed cottage lulled us into a sense of serenity to the point that we did not move for a full day. The cottage is well-appointed, and as we moved throughout, we found lovely surprises in every room. It is a 5 minute walk from Lake Ontario where we photographed beautiful sunsets. The backyard is awe-inspiring as it is backed by a beautiful Carolinian forest and well-maintained, as is the cottage. We were minutes away from downtown and the Shaw theatre. W were so comfortable, it was hard to leave such a great place.

About the host

Hosted by Diane Haliski

Being a seventh generation native to Niagara-on-the-Lake, & having grown up here, I have experienced the vast changes from a sleepy hollow to a thriving tourist town. One aspect that remains to this day within our village, is the historic beauty... accompanied by the breath-taking geographic location, and the warm, friendly sense of community.

Why they chose this property

Situated on one of the prettiest streets in one of the "Prettiest Towns in Canada", I instantly fell in love with this enchanting cottage.....the dark green woods shading it & the sweet smell of cedar upon entering the front porch. A feeling of peace & tranquility swept over me & I knew I was home.

What makes this property unique

The minute walk to the ever changing lake & magnificent sunsets make the Flying Cloud unique in every season !
Chautauqua was always, & remains to be the "magical" cottage area of town. At the turn of the century it housed the Chautauqua Ampitheatre in the centre hub of it's spoked street design....providing live theatre & entertainment to cottagers, town folk, & tourists throughout the summers.
