A beautiful property and place to vacation and relax at.

A luxurious property with stunning sunsets, a gorgeous back porch to relax on and lakefront access for swimming and kayaking in the lake. We really enjoyed the short walk into town for dinner, an ice cream cone and a long walk on the pier at the breach. Everything was perfect and we hope to come back soon!

Beach vacation and niagra falls

This was a wonderful property. We enjoyed the beach and the porch immensely. My kids loved the kayaks, Lilly pad and hot tub. We were very close to Niagara Falls and Clifton street and were a reasonable drive away from Toronto for a day trip.

Beauty and tranquility

We had an amazing family vacation overlooking the lake in this beautifully appointed home. Gourmet meals in, drinks on the decks, floating in the lake, it was all at our fingertips. Plenty of room for our extended family and lovely reading nooks to hide away for some peace and quiet. The best property in the area!

This is a phenomenal property that completely lived up to all the stellar reviews we read before booking. From the location, to the expansive water views, to the kayaking, hot tub, and gourmet kitchen, we thoroughly enjoyed our time there. And Denise couldn't have been more gracious and welcoming. She went out of her way to provide extensive information about local activities and was always incredibly responsive.

Great summer vacation

The house and view are truly spectacular. The only 2 things I would say is that it should have been cleaned better prior to our stay and better blinds for shade since the sun rises very early in the summer

Excellent vacation!

The house and location is even more beautiful in person. The house was very clean and was the most well appointed home we've ever rented- there isn't one thing we needed that it didn't have. The beach/lake were incredible, as were the outside spaces. Excellent proximity to Niagara Falls, wineries and Niagara on the Lake. The host was was extremely nice and always available to communicate as needed. I would highly recommend this property!

Relaxing waterfront getaway

My husband and I along with a couple of friends were looking for a quiet weekend away from our hectic lives. This home was just what we needed. We spent the majority of our time on the deck over looking the lake. Every amenity that we needed was available. The property owner is amazing and went above and beyond.

A special property

It was very much like staying at a private resort. We had a lot of plans, but rarely left the property; it made no sense to go anywhere. Every day, all day, the views are incredible. The kitchen and connected deck were great places to hang out, cook or soak in the hot tub. The patio below was outstanding for cocktails and evening fires. The lake has a soft sand bar that is great for swimming, standing around or floating around with noodles, and we even went for walks parallel to the shore. And there were always the kayaks for something else to do. Denise is also an excellent host.
