We needed a place to rest before helping my sister move out of her dorm. She attends Colgate and it is a 5 minute drive from where we stayed. This was a comfortable place and had everything we needed!

The instructions provided were clear and simple, which was much appreciated, since finding the driveway at night would have otherwise been impossible. Unique, pleasant, and comfortable accommodations.
We needed a place for my husband and I close to Hamilton and Astrid delivered. The apartment had all the amenities and was very comfortable! The location was perfect, parking was great and we look forward to staying there again in the future.
The property was amazing - beyond expectation. The owner was kind, sent clear instructions and had superb communication.
I look forward to returning and would recommend this stay at anyone in the Colgate aeea
Astrid and Ian were so welcoming and friendly! My family stayed here as my daughter was settling in on the Colgate Campus. Conveniently located and well appointed. Thank you for being such great hosts!
Loved our stay! Perfect space for us while visiting our daughter. Quiet and serene. Bonus points for coffee, water, snacks, and toiletries provided! Great hosts with excellent communication.
Thanks for the oatmeal and the coffee. That was a great start to the day. The area was delightful with plenty of birds to watch. We would definitely come back.
Astrid and Ian are lovely hosts with beautiful property. The apartment is perfect for a few nights stay that's close to my family. I've stayed twice now and its been a pleasure. I hope to be back over the summer!
It is such a beautiful experience to stay in this apartment! The room is very clean, with comprehensive washroom and kitchen supplies. The bed is soft and comfortable. Showering and cooking are also convenient. Heating works very well. The style of the apartment is cozy and cute. Most importantly, the host is so sweet and caring, communicating clear check-in instructions and always checking if everything is alright. Spend a wonderful weekend here!
We loved this apartment, which (with its birch floors, skylights, and window views of the woods) had a Nordic feel. Super clean, comfortable, and well-appointed. An easy, minutes-only drive into town. A wonderful host (Astrid). Perfect for Colgate parents and other visitors to the area. So glad we stayed here.
The room was immaculate! The room is over the home's garage, but skylights make the space well lit. Comfortable, easy to find, woods all around- I would stay there again, for sure.
Perfect place for me to stay to visit my daughter at Colgate. Very clean very comfortable. Would highly recommend.

We stayed only for a night but had a great stay. The house was very comfortable. Astrid was a wonderful host, very prompt and helpful. Would definitely recommend to others.
This was a great place for me to spend a relaxing night after moving my kid into Colgate and recharging for the drive home.
