We absolutely loved our stay. The views of the river from the house are wonderful and we sat outside every day enjoying the weather and view. The house is stocked with everything you need to cook. The house is so clean and lovely. Overall a very homey place and we will stay again if we are in the neighborhood. Thanks Susie and Dean.

We had a wonderful stay! The house has so much character and charm, was very clean and was stocked with everything we needed. The view of the river and the outdoor spaces are an added bonus. We enjoyed walking around the village of Dexter and took day trips to some of the towns on Lake Ontario. We will definitely be back!
