We greatly appreciated our stay in Gatineau. The property is walking distance from downtown Ottawa with loads of restaurants nearby. Thanks to our host Lissa, who provided many excellent recommendations on attractions and places to eat. Would recommend to anyone with a family for an extended visit to the region.

The house was large and well equipped. Everyone had room and comfortable beds. There were all kinds of activities- canoes, kayaks and a large back lawn. We had a barbecue on the covered back porch on the ground floor and lovely evenings on the upper balcony. Grocery shopping was easy as there were several stores a short distance away in town.

The house was very clean, tidy and well equipped for our family. We found there to be a good amount of cooking utilities in the kitchen, and our son loved the endless children's books and toys located in the upstairs bedroom closet. We found a local grocery store a few streets over that had everything we needed. The house was a good 30 minute drive from downtown Ottawa but still remote enough for it to be quiet most of the day with little disturbance from traffic. Overall we would definitely book this property again and would recommend it to families of 6-8 people. We also found countless board games and a PlayStation 4 in the storage cubbies under the sofa seat with a good amount of games and movies to choose from.

We had a fantastic stay! The space was incredibly spacious, spotless, and well-maintained. The hosts went above and beyond with thoughtful touches like stocked drinks and toiletries, which were much appreciated. There was plenty of comfortable sleeping space for everyone, and the bathrooms were large with excellent water pressure. The mattresses were super comfy too. Highly recommend this place for a relaxing and hassle-free stay!

Property was well furnished, comfortable and clean. The porch was great to hang out on. Location was perfect for our trip, we went into Ottawa /Parliament Hill one day and went to Gatineau Park another day—easy drive to both places. Owner was very responsive to the few questions we had.

I stayed here for just one night and was really impressed. The house was spotless, well-equipped, and exactly as described. Super close to the airport and in a quiet neighborhood — perfect for a short trip or layover. Check-in was smooth, and communication with the host was excellent. Would definitely stay again!

Beautiful basement apartment in a brand new neighborhood. Unit was clean and well kept and had everything we needed. Close enough to Ottawa to enjoy it, but far enough away that you didn't feel like you were in the city! Thanks so much for having us!
