Family vacation

We truly enjoyed our stay at the Lake house. We were on vacation visiting Toronto, Niagara Falls and the many wineries. The house was in a good location with a beautiful lake view. Unfortunately, it rained quite a bit so we were not able to spend much time enjoying the back outside area of the house.

Quick get away for a few days...

Other than gold rainy couple of days we loved the area. Great place to walk our dogs, very close to Niagara on the lake. View to lake was great, very quite and relaxing, just what we needed. You would never know yoy are in St. Catharines, so close to city life... We will be back....

Canada Wine Trip

Our stay at the Lakehouse was fabulous! We were looking for a fun and relaxing spot while visiting wineries in the Beamsville Bench and Niagara-On-The-Lake wine regions and this property was perfect. We thoroughly enjoyed the lake views every morning while enjoying coffee out on the deck. The check-in and check-out process could not have been easier, thanks to our wonderful hosts. My only minor complaint is that the two beds upstairs should been on bedframes, not just a mattress and box spring on the floor. Hopefully this is remedied soon. Other than that, this place is awesome!
