Wonderful stay

We loved our stay here! It was one of the best, if not the best, places we have ever stayed. So clean, and cozy. It was so well stocked, which left it a 100% no stress stay. Perfect location. Quiet and private. We will absolutely be back everytime we stay in Barrie. Our host was very attentive and helpful. A+++

The North Shore Suite has the kindest, most generous, amazing host ever who made us feel so welcome and comfortable our entire five month stay. The property was clean, cozy, and well-maintained. There was ample room for my teenager and I to work and complete schooling simultaneously without irritating each other and having a full kitchenette to cook meals saved us so much money. The lake is within easy walking distance and conveniently takes you past a Tim Horton’s and grocery store along the way. We were absolutely spoiled the whole time. If I could give more stars, I would.

Thank you so much for your kind words, Lena. It was a joy having you and your son stay for this part of your journey, and it warms my heart to know that you were so comfy and felt welcomed in The North Shore Suite. That is the biggest compliment you can give me. My goal is to make sure my Guests feel comfortable, safe, and welcome, so they can relax and enjoy their stay. Safe travels, and I hope to cross paths again.

Another wonderful stay

My daughter and I stayed here for 2 nights while getting her wisdom teeth out. It was an incredible stay. Very quiet and cozy, and my daughter adores the kitties that live upstairs. This is my 2nd stay here, and we will definitely be back. This is the most attentive host that I have ever encountered. We both felt like we were at home. Thank you!!

Thank you so much Kimberly, for your kind review. I'm relieved that your daughter did so well with her dental procedure. The kitties miss you already, Lilli was waiting at the door for you. We look forward to your next visit.

Exactly what we needed for our visit to Barrie

We loved staying with Laura. The apartment is tidy, warm and well stocked with supplies. Laura was very aware of public health guidelines and we always felt safe in the unit. Laura was very responsive, always texting back very quickly. We were especially fond of Lily and Einstein, Laura's cats who we visited regularly (they were often in the room next to our unit.) The apartment is a short walk from the North Shore Trail and Johnson's beach, great for an afternoon stroll. Highly recommended!

I'm so glad you enjoyed your stay. Yes, Lilli and Einstein are known to visit the Suite and make my Guests feel welcomed. I enjoyed meeting you (from a distance) as well. I hope you have a Merry Christmas and a very healthy New Year.
