I cannot say enough good things about this cottage. It is a five minute walk up to Queen St with all the history, shops and restaurants. The lake is a two minute walk. It is convenient to all the wineries.

Perfect little place in a great location

This place was perfect for my daughter and me. It was just the right size for two, and the location was hard to beat. We were just a couple blocks away from both the main drag and the water. Simple check in and check out, everything worked, and communication with the owners was easy. Thanks for a great stay!

Overall, a very nice place - close to the water, a quiet neighborhood and an especially good location. It's very close to the Shaw Festival theaters - so easy to walk and no need to pay for parking. We did find the window air conditions to be a bit noisy and the last step into the house from the outside is quite awkward - it's abnormally high.

Old Town District

We frequent Niagara on the Lake and this was the first time staying in a cottage. The owners were wonderful to deal with and prompt in answering questions. It was clean and had everything we needed for our stay. No worries for parking and was in walking distance to the main strip. We would definitely stay there again.

The Cottage was spotlessly clean and adorable. Perfect for two. So many thoughtful touches throughout. Very close to everything Niagara On The Lake offers, yet very quiet and relaxing. We really enjoyed the well tended back yard. We felt like we were in a Disney movie. lolThe squirrels, rabbits, chipmunks, even a woodchuck came out to visit., too many birds to list. Just beautiful, will book here again and soon!

For the location, we would rate this a 5. Easy walking distance to theaters, beach, park and walking trails, restaurants and shops. The place was true to the photos. However, a few details detracted from our enjoyment. Uneven steps were awkward to unload bags and a significant challenge for people with mobility challenges. They do need to deep clean the cobwebs on the ceiling and the dirt on window sills. We could not open some of the windows but the owner gladly scheduled time to stop in to help, which we appreciated.

Convenient, Clean, and Quaint!

I met a friend here for a quick girls' weekend. The location is perfect... Close walking distance to the railway, lake, parks, and Queen Street shops and restaurants. It was an easy bike or drive to many wineries too! The home was very comfortable and had everything we needed. The owners were responsive and helpful. We would absolutely stay here again for another visit!
