My partner and I loved this home away from home. It’s in the perfect location to head to the falls, but also go to Toronto. Plus the cottage is a short drive from many vineyards. The cottage was cozy and we would definitely stay again in the future!

Second stay at this lovely little secluded spot! The bed is super comfortable, appreciated having wood so we could have a nice fire in the pit on the patio. Brought our e-bikes, comfortable ride through St. Catharines to the wineries. Linda is super responsive and the perfect host. Thank you, love this place and we will be back!

The location of The Cottage is great as you feel like you are in the country yet you are only a couple of miles from St Catherine and all it has to offer. Wineries are not far away as are shopping, restaurants and groceries. Our host Linda was very responsive to any need we had and provided information and suggestions about the area.

About the host

Hosted by The Bouw Family

Host profile image

The Bouw Family has lived in the Niagara area for over 55 years. Love to travel, enjoy meeting people from all over the world. Our kids are grown yet live close by. We wanted to share our country setting, which is so perfect to relax in yet close to everything is you wish to be active.

Why they chose this property

Why this gem people do ask......
We personally had a health situation where we had to fly to Red Deer to take care of a family member and were lucky enough to find a home to stay in while we took care of our loved one. We saw the opportunity for this building, now our newly renovated cottage, to enable us to do the same for people who happen to have sick ones in our local hospital which is close by. A place to stay, to cook, to relax, to re-coup and self energize.

What makes this property unique

A quiet patio to enjoy the birds, squirrels and occasional deer.
A treed lot to sit in the shade.
A little kitchen to relax, cook and enjoy.
A gas BBQ on the patio
A wood burning fire pit surrounded by 4 muskoka chairs
