We couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay while enjoying Canada! The property was beautiful, comfortable, and provided the perfect setting for a relaxing week. We especially enjoyed watching the regatta teams train each morning from the property.Our hosts were absolutely fantastic—welcoming, helpful, and made us feel right at home. Everything about our stay was wonderful, and we truly enjoyed every minute of it. We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend this VRBO to anyone visiting the area!

Awesome view of Martindale Pond and the finish line for a regatta. The location has four good sized bedrooms that met the needs of our 7 person party. There are three bathrooms that made getting ready to go out a breeze. Nice full size kitchen. A sun porch we really enjoyed lounging in. But by far the best was the use of the backyard with a 8 person table and chairs overlooking the water. We’d absolutely rebook this location for future visits. Cheers

Beautiful property overlooking the channel where we were able to watch the rowers and enjoy the sunset. The apartment is the upstairs of the hosts’ home. The hosts were lovely people with a sweet little dog.

We had such a wonderful stay! The property is absolutely perfect for a group getaway. We loved sitting by the water with our morning coffee and enjoying a glass of wine in the afternoon while taking in the beautiful views.There are so many great areas to sit and relax, both indoors and outside. The bedrooms are spacious, the kitchen is fully equipped, and the bathrooms are clean and comfortable.The location is also fantastic, with an easy walk to everything nearby. It was the perfect place to stay, relax, celebrate, and make great memories. We would absolutely stay here again!

Place is great. Easy access and in an absolutely perfect location. We did the Niagara Falls thing but the kids and I ended up staying around the area because the easy walk to downtown, to the incredible beach, and the view from the yard was just too great to leave. All the essentials and amenities that you would want are in the house.

Music Festival Weekend

Stayed for 3 nights to attend the Cicada Music Festival. Walking distance to the island made it a perfect location. The restaurants and pubs 1 block away were great as well. We enjoyed morning coffee in the Muskoka chairs watching the rowers practice. Great stay.

Beautiful location and home. Bedrooms do get hot and there is not a great deal of indoor space to hang out, but the yard is beautiful. We could have sat and watched the rowers for hours! A perfect location

A stunning sunrise view over the water...

We loved our stay - the property was very clean, good water pressure, and completely met out needs. Great jumping off spot for all of Niagara Region! We really enjoyed watching the sunrises, and the rowers practicing out on the water in the early morning. The big yard was a great space for our 4.5 year old son to run around in, and the neighbourhood made for some very pretty walks.
