2 weeks in Cornwall, ON

Brad was great to deal with. Quick and helpful communications. The house was very accurately described. The kitchen was very well outfitted, including coffee maker, toaster, microwave, air fryer, gas grill on the deck, and lots of good quality new cookwear and dishes. Even a fully outfitted spice rack. Great location, close to groceries, shopping and restaurants. Nice safe neighborhood for our daily walks.

Beautiful property!

We really enjoyed our stay in the Boho room at the Cardinal Inn. The room and home are beautifully decorated and spotless. The Inn is within walking distance to downtown and the neighbourhood was quiet. Communication with Ryan was great. We will definitely stay again and highly recommend to others.

Enjoyed

All at site was excellent. Due to the intense heat in Cornwall, air conditioning was very efficient, so much so that it was very chilly during our stay. The owner was VERY RESPONSIVE to trying to meet our needs and attempted to adjust temperature to our satisfaction. We were very impressed on his responsiveness. We will certainly consider this vendor again when in the Cornwall area.
