We absolutely loved the Red House! The house and everything in it were sparkling clean and well stocked with linens, dishes etc as well as books and indoor and outdoor games.

The house was newly renovated, everything was freshly painted with new appliances and everything was clean. Everything worked as it should, and the cabinets were stocked with all essentials.The driveway is a pull-through making getting in and out with a boat easy. We will stay here again on our next fishing trip to Wilson.

The Red House was perfect for our stay! We were able to spend quality time barbecuing and enjoying a campfire with family while in town for our brother’s celebration of life. The house had everything we needed, was extremely comfortable and very welcoming. The beds were very comfortable. The bathroom floor was unique and so cool! Go Bills!! Frank and Katie even left us a delicious homemade wine. What a treat! We hope to come again next year.

The red house was exactly as advertised. Very modern and clean. Frank was very quick to respond to any questions I had. Kitchen is fully stocked with everything you. Would highly recommend this for a family or fisherman headed up to Lake Ontario for fishing. I will be reserving this house again next year once we establish dates for our fishing trip.

We had the best time here! The Red House was full of activities that kept my family busy. My kids especially loved the bumper pool! The house was extremely clean and thoughtfully stocked with plenty of towels and anything we needed on the kitchen to prepare dinner. Location was great as well. Super close to the lake and about 30 minutes from anything we wanted to do (Niagara Falls, Buffalo etc). Frank is a great host. 100% recommend!
