This location, house and host were great. A bottle of wine was waiting for us, and it was perfect.It was close to the water, restaurants and wineries. We couldn’t ask for a better place to stay and launch our long weekend.

Scott, this honestly made my day. Thank you so much for the kind words, and for sharing photos from your weekend — seeing guests enjoy the space is exactly what makes hosting feel so rewarding. You and your family were such thoughtful guests, and I really appreciated the care you took with Studio 5. You left it in immaculate shape and treated it with the same TLC you would your own home. We’re so glad the wine was a nice start to your weekend and that Studio 5 worked well for your time near the water, restaurants, and wineries. We’d be very happy to welcome you and your family back anytime.

The property was better than we expected. Perfectly clean and cozy. Really appreciated all the little details and having the full kitchen made our Thanksgiving get away like home away from home. Hosts were prompt and responsive. We had absolutely no issues at all. Thank you for having us. We will be back!

Louise, I just read your review and I am genuinely so touched. Thank you. You were such an amazing guest, and I honestly couldn’t believe how immaculate you left Studio 5 — if I didn’t know better, I would have thought no one had even stayed there! Your comments mean so much because we’ve put a lot into making Studio 5 what it is, and to have someone notice those little details and feel the way you did about your stay is incredibly rewarding. Thank you for being so kind. We would absolutely love to have you back.

What a fabulous time we had from start to finish. The accommodation was excellent as was the communication with both Tanya and Robert who made us feel at home from day one. The accommodation is lovely with everything you need and more, a short walk to the Port where there are bars restaurants etc. We met with Tanya who was friendly like an old friend or just a new one now. Thank you guys

John and Elaine, thank you so much for such a lovely review. Your comment about feeling like old friends really touched me — I honestly can’t think of a nicer compliment. I’m so glad you enjoyed your time at Studio 5 and felt at home while you were here. It was lovely meeting you both and having the chance to chat, and we really appreciated how well you looked after the studio during your stay. You were wonderful guests, and I truly hope our paths cross again someday. Tanya & Robbie

A heavy storm delayed check in into the early hours of the following morning. The host was so amazing. We communicated throughout the day and she was willing to help with the small details to make the arrival as easy as possible. The cabin is exactly as pictured and described with lots of supplies. Steps from multiple viewpoints of Lake Ontario, this tucked away "home away from home" is definitely worth it!

Jennifer, thank you so much for this. After the storm delays and such a long travel day, I was just happy we could stay connected and make your arrival as easy as possible. It means a lot to hear that Studio 5 felt like a little home away from home and that you had a chance to enjoy the lake and the area while you were here. You were such a lovely guest, and I’d be very happy to welcome you back anytime.

Excellent ! A great property. I would highly recommend it . The property is nicely equipped with everything you need including a bbq, washer & dryer and a well equipped kitchen. We found it to be very comfortable. It is located in a beautiful and quiet neighborhood surrounded by other small well kept houses. We enjoyed sitting outside in the morning with our coffee and listening to the doves coing in the trees.

Louis, I absolutely loved reading this. The part about sitting outside in the morning with your coffee, listening to the doves in the trees, made me smile — that’s exactly the kind of quiet little moment I hoped people would enjoy at Studio 5. It was such a pleasure having you and your family stay with us. You took wonderful care of the place, and I’m so glad you felt comfortable and at home while you were here. Thank you for such a lovely review. You’re welcome back anytime.

My son and I adored this cottage — it was perfect for the two of us. It was beautifully equipped with everything we needed; I especially loved the K-cups and coffee supplies, so I didn't have to run out to the store after a long drive. The snack basket and welcome beverage were also much appreciated. The space is bright, clean, and recently renovated, and the heated bathroom floors were absolutely amazing (yes, even in summer!).Tanya and Robbie were available at a moment's notice whenever we needed anything.We were there for the regatta, and the cottage is within walking distance of Port Dalhousie and the grandstands. I also brought my bike and enjoyed some beautiful rides through the vineyards, orchards, and cornfields nearby. This was the perfect place to come back to after a full day.We wouldn't hesitate to recommend this cottage — thank you again!

We truly appreciated it, and we’d be very happy to have you back anytime. Tanya

We loved our stay at 5 1/2 Abbey. It was perfectly located to explore the greater Niagara area and within walking distance of Port Dalhousie’s restaurants. The cottage was thoughtfully appointed and immaculately clean. The hosts have thought of everything one might need for an enjoyable holiday stay.

Thank you so much, Nadine and François. It was honestly such a pleasure hosting you both at Studio 5. From your bike rides through Niagara, to your kind messages, to the beautiful note you left in our guest book, you made this experience feel really special for us. We’re so happy you enjoyed the studio and the neighbourhood, and I loved hearing how much you were able to explore the area by bike. Guests like you are exactly why we hoped to create a place that feels welcoming, comfortable, and connected to everything we love about Port Dalhousie and Niagara. Merci beaucoup pour vos mots si gentils. Vous avez été des invités merveilleux, et nous serions très heureux de vous accueillir à nouveau.

Jill, this one means a lot to us. You and your husband were our very first guests at Studio 5, and we honestly couldn’t have asked for a better start. You were both such a pleasure to host, and we’re so happy to hear that we got the little things right and that you had everything you needed to enjoy your weekend. Thank you for taking a chance on a brand-new listing, for taking such great care of our little place, and for leaving us such a lovely first review. You’ll always be part of the Studio 5 story!
