The accommodations were fantastic, and our host was very knowledgeable and easy to talk to. The location was perfect, and we would definitely choose to stay at By the Vines again.
Better than expected! Home was clean, comfortable and well stocked. Yes, it's on a busy road, but noise wasn't an issue. Great backyard for entertaini g and very roomy downstairs suite. We have already recommended to other family members.
There were 4 of us on a girls vacation, and this house was perfect for us. It was exactly as described and in a great location - so close to everything. We went to the Falls, shopped in NOTL, visited wineries, walked along the lake. The backyard was beautiful, and we used the grill to make dinner one night. Would definitely return!
We came to NOTL for our daughter’s wedding. The place was perfect for our home “base”. We even had time to enjoy the beautiful backyard . The home was very well equipped with everything we needed.
The home was lovely and everything was very clean! All the amenities listed were there and functioned as expected. The back yard was the highlight in our opinion! Scott was very responsive and a gracious host.
Such a wonderful home for our NOTL getaway! There was so much room for our group, and the location worked out wonderfully—we loved being able to walk to nearby vineyards, and it was just a quick, easy ride into downtown. The backyard setup was ideal for sitting outside, catching up, and enjoying a glass of wine after exploring. You can tell the hosts really care about their guests’ experience; little touches like bedside chargers everywhere and an exceptionally well-stocked setup made staying here effortless. We loved every minute !
Wonderful stay! The backyard had something for everyone. Nice location. The linens on the bed were so comfy!!! Very well thought out vacation rental. Host was very communicative!
We had a great visit and this property was fabulous. Very nice layout. It was clean and had lots of amenities. The backyard is very nice and a wonderful space to relax and enjoy others in.
This home was spectacular. With some from Ontario and Nova Scotia it allowed us the flexibility and time as a family to be together. Scott was readily to answer a text and efficient. This little town is quiet and beautiful and so was the home. No detail was left unturned. Detail in the home and outdoor living space allowed us privacy and so much together time. Will definitely return. Thank you
Wonderful home away from home, would like to return. Scott is very attentive amd helpful. Everything was easy amd smooth, the house has everything you would need away from home, attention to deal was met for sure!Very comfortable
A wonderful experience. The accommodations were excellent, and Scott was an amazing host. I would highly recommend this VRBO to anyone looking for a cozy place to stay in Niagara-on-the-Lake.
On a girls trip - we had a great stay here! The house was very clean, modern, and well kept. The location was excellent — very close to many wineries, including Wayne Gretzky Estates, and also close to King Street- where there are lots of great shops and things to explore. The house was very accommodating and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay (the beds are super comfortable!). Also everything we needed in the kitchen to make meals! We will definitely stay here again - we loved NOTL!
Can’t see much of the Vinyard from the back yard, due to privacy bushes, but the property was beautiful, very clean and plenty of room! We had an absolutely wonderful stay!
The property was beautiful and Scott was a wonderful host! The backyard is a particular highlight!
