Doggy heaven. Large fenced yard , beautiful gardens, guest patio and firepit.
Super comfortable and cozy home away from home. Creative decor inside and out. This one bedroom apartment has a spacious open concept kitchen and living room that is extremely clean and well equipped. It has a large bathroom and lots of closet space. An electric fireplace for cozy nights in front of the TV. There is a queen size bed in the one bedroom and a sofa bed( double) in the living room plus a foam single mattress for an alternative and convenience. The apartment has everything you need and more and it is a short drive to anywhere you need to go in the city(UofW 10 min) yet is located in a small town setting.. The half acre property is perfect for your dog to run leash free and the host dog is always up for playtime. There is a guest patio with a fire pit and cozy furniture but you’re welcome to roam the property at your leisure . There is free parking for one vehicle in the back yard parking lot. There is laundry on the premises but not in the apartment therefore I offer a courtesy laundry service (within reason) It’s a lovely neighbour hood to explore with the Grand river right across the road , ball diamonds and soccer fields , parks and trails and two of the cities favourite restaurants are all within walking distance . Plenty of local attractions only 15 or 20 minutes away. I also offer the opportunity for you to take a private three hour canoe trip down the Grand river where you’ll be surrounded by nature . I will provide all the essentials and the transportation .( must sign waiver)

Kathy was great with communication and was very clear with check in instructions. The place was clean and tidy, comfortable, and easy to find. The welcome basket was lovely :)Thank you Kathy!
Kathy's place was perfect for our short stay in the area. The apartment was clean and tidy and had everything we needed to be comfortable. The yard is fantastic for dogs and our dog had fun playing with Sivian (Kathy's dog).

An oasis in the big city! Quiet neighborhood, quaint garden, easy to get around everywhere we wished to go. Great for a couple that just needs some down time. Hostess went above and beyond our expectations. We definitely give this a 10 plus.

About the host
Hosted by Kathy wideman
I’m from Elmira a smaller town close to Kitchener. After a relationship failed I took an apartment in Bridgeport. I was in that apt for seven years. It was really small but I loved it So much so I vowed to never leave bridgeport . It’s been 21 years since I bought this house and I still know to this day that it was one of the best decision I ever made. I renovated my basement into an apt and it eventually became a STR. Again it was another one of the best decisions I ever made.i get to meet folks from all over the world and share my beautiful space with them . A lot of people like to travel with their pets and I’m so happy I can make that possible for them.
Why they chose this property
Bridgeport has a lot of space compared to the rest of the city . It’s like living in a small town right across the bridge. I had a Labrador retriever when I moved here and having the river and trails was such a great place for us. I’ve had four dogs since and I couldn’t give them a better place to live their lives it truly is a doggy’s dream .
What makes this property unique
The size of the properties in Bridgeport is incredible . You’re hard pressed to find any city or even towns that have so many large properties that have not been severed and developed . My property is in a row with many of the same size all approximately 80’x300’. Mine is the only one in this row that is entirely fenced . And I have a magnificent willow tree in the centre of it . I have more gardens than a park as it is my favorite pastime. I have a huge fire pit and have had so many good times with friends and family and guests around the fire . The atmosphere here is relaxed and without the hustle bustle of the city.
