Cute apartment with a great kitchenette for those who don't want to eat out all the time. Wi-Fi was provided and entrance to the property was easy and I felt secure. The host has lot of little extras and tries to make your stay pleasant. There are steep stairs for any who would be troubled by that but they are very stable and have railings.

Above and beyond

My girlfriend and I chose this place to be close to an event. This place was priced right and was in a peaceful area but also very close to amenities and restaurants. For those who know of Zak’s restaurant, Carleton Place has one now. Our hosts was prompt with communication and the room was clean and comfy. Chromecast worked great for snuggling and watching movies. The only issue we had was with the fridge when we checked in. It didn’t appear to be cold. I turned it up to max (7) and it took some time but it did make things cold enough and the freezer at the bottom of the fridge kept our ice cream frozen solid. Prior to the fridge cooling I kind of panicked and ran to Walmart and bought a cooler and bags of ice to keep drinks and the ice cream cold and I mentioned the issue and my quick solution. The host offered to bring in a contractor to look at the fridge because it had been working the day prior but also offered to reimburse me for the cooler costs. In the end the fridge did keep things cool and meeting the host when we were loading the car, I said don’t worry about reimbursement because we will keep the cool and as long as the fridge says on max it was working. We thanked her for everything. I received an email with reimbursement for the cooler anyways which I would say is above and beyond and great customer service. We also left two rolls of paper towel for the next guests along with a roll of aluminum foil that we used for wrapping pizza. 😊

About the host

Hosted by Sylvia Lewis-Havard

Hi! I’m Sylvia, and I work part-time for the public service and (very) part-time as a server-sommelier at a casual fine dining restaurant here in Carleton Place. My husband and I have been hosting travellers since 2012 and are currently Superhosts on another platform.

We first discovered Airbnb back in 2011, when we stayed in a cozy flat on St-Viateur in Montréal — it was such a wonderful experience that it inspired us to start hosting ourselves.

Our home is a century property full of character and charm. Sylvia’s mum (affectionately known as Granny) lives with us in the winter, and in the summer we rent out her “Granny Suite” to guests. We live in the main house, while the studio suite is located at the back of the property on the main level, with its own private entrance.

We love sharing our space and our community with others. Carleton Place has a welcoming small-town feel, with great restaurants, trails, and local breweries — perfect for exploring on foot or by bike.

When we’re not hosting, you’ll probably find us cycling, running, or enjoying a craft beer after a long ride. We also love spending time with our two kids and discovering new places together.

Hosting gives us the chance to meet wonderful people from all over and help them enjoy the same kind of warm, comfortable stays that made us fall in love with the idea of home sharing in the first place. We hope you’ll feel right at home here too!

Why they chose this property

We chose the Museum District in Carleton Place because it perfectly combines small-town charm, walkable convenience, and a wonderful sense of community. This neighborhood is friendly, peaceful, and full of local history — the kind of place where neighbors wave as you walk by and where everything you need is just a short stroll away.

We had been searching for a century home with a secondary suite in downtown Carleton Place since 2016, and we finally found the perfect one — just down the street from our former home! We bought and sold during the tail end of the pandemic, and it’s been one of the best decisions we’ve made.

The Museum District truly captures the spirit of Carleton Place. The Carleton Place and Beckwith Heritage Museum, located just behind our property, brings the town’s past to life with fascinating exhibits and a beautiful setting. Right in our backyard, there’s also a peaceful community labyrinth — a hidden gem for quiet reflection or a leisurely walk.

Downtown is just a short walk away, offering cozy cafés, locally owned shops, and beautifully preserved heritage buildings. Whether you’re grabbing a morning coffee, browsing the farmer’s market (Saturday mornings), or enjoying a meal along the river, everything feels close, connected, and authentic.

What we enjoy most about living here is the genuine sense of belonging — the friendliness, the relaxed pace, and the pride people take in their town. It’s a neighborhood that feels both historic and alive, and we love being able to share a little piece of it with our guests.

What makes this property unique

Our home is a beautifully preserved century property that backs onto the Carleton Place and Beckwith Heritage Museum and its peaceful community labyrinth. We fell in love with the home’s character, the leafy yard, and the covered terrace — a perfect place to relax and enjoy the quiet charm of the Museum District.

The original house carries a fascinating piece of local history. It was once home to McFadden Furs, a well-known local business founded by Hiram McFadden (1858–1936). Born in nearby Ashton, Ontario, Hiram began his career as an engineer with the Edwards Lumber Company before turning to the fur trade. A passionate naturalist and marksman, he represented Canada on the Bisley team four times and won the Earl and Countess Grey medal for high aggregate score in 1911.

When Hiram’s daughter Edie married Harry Umphry in 1927, Hiram passed the business to his new son-in-law. Harry expanded the operation and added a large extension on the east side of the William Street house to create a cool storage vault for furs. The business served the community for decades before closing upon Harry’s retirement in 1963.

While the main house retains its original charm and architectural details, the studio and Granny Suite are more modern additions at the back of the property. These spaces were designed with comfort and convenience in mind, offering guests a private and peaceful stay with all the modern amenities you’d expect — while still being part of the property’s historic setting.

It’s more than just a place to stay — it’s a blend of local history and modern comfort, nestled in one of Carleton Place’s most historic neighborhoods. Whether you’re here to explore, unwind, or simply enjoy the shady terrace, you’ll feel both welcomed and connected to the town’s story.
