My husband and I enjoyed our stay in this space. It was just what we needed. It would be a great space for a girl's weekend as well. Sitting on the deck out front was lovely and we enjoyed our morning coffee our first morning there. Although we didn't use the t.v. or sectional sofa downstairs, this is a great space for lounging and cozying up if the weather is not so great outside.

Michelle has done a wonderful job at 551 Dalhousie street. Very welcoming, comfortable and the river view is great. The place was spotless and Michelle was very friendly and quick to respond to any questions or concerns. I would be happy to stay here again and would certainly give it a positive review!

The Island View property is beautiful. It’s a cute home with everything you need to make your stay perfect. The kitchen is equipped with every item you’d ever need (other than your own food of course). The beds are so comfy. The basement suite is ideal if you want a separate space with a games room, bedroom, tv and separate bathroom. The decor makes you feel like you’re at a seaside resort, but better. We spent most of the time on the front deck overlooking the water, saying good morning to the runners, walkers, birds and other wildlife. The host checked in a few times to ensure things were good and always replied promptly. We will be back.

Homey Stay

This property was perfect for my siblings and me. It is within walking distance of the downtown area of Amherstburg which is just darling. The host had great communication throughout our stay and would recommend this place to others.

The property itself is beautiful! Very well maintained and comfortable. Everything was exactly where you would expect it to be - the kitchen was so well equipped and even had a cheese grater when we needed one! Michelle was very friendly and accomodating. We really enjoyed our visit and hope to be back again!

Great View

Very comfortable, clean and cozy for 6 adults to relax after a stressful and sad time of spending many hours at the funeral home. We will recommend this home to others coming down to SW Ontario

Great place to stay for the weekend. Only wish the weather would have co-operated for porch sitting & exploring your cute little town. Kitchen was well stocked. My 92 year old mother-in-law was quite impressed by the cute dishes/cups. Everything we needed. Everyone is already talking about maybe coming back this summer, if you'll have us. THANK YOU.

Beautiful stay in Amherstburg

We chose this place due to the location overlooking the river and close to downtown and family we were visiting. We thoroughly enjoyed the home and loved the front porch and its views of the river, so nice to enjoy a morning coffee and wine at night! Everything about this place is great! The beds were comfortable, bathrooms very nice and the kitchen was stocked with everything you need. The host was easy to get in touch with if we had any questions. Highly recommend this beautiful little find in Amherstburg!

Girls get away weekend

Our stay here was wonderful. Michelle was a pleasure to work with, booking was a smooth process and Michelle responded quickly to our messages and requests. Everything was perfect. Quiet safe neighbourhood, with a beautiful view of the river. The inside of the house was clean and inviting. It easily accommodated the 5 of us.

Paradise Found

What a wonderful experience this 5 day excursion turned out to be! The house has been tastefully renovated, with every attention to detail to make visitors feel pampered. A fully stocked kitchen makes meal preparation easy, or it's a 5 minute drive to the many dining choices in the downtown core. Our hosts even went out of their way to bring us coffee and muffins when a brief power outage occurred! The front deck with a water view is spacious and comfortable seating areas are provided as well. We watched our pup playing in the backyard while we sat on the back deck, so our "furbaby" had a vacation as well. We will definitely be returning to this "Paradise Found"
