One night on Victoria Street

This is the perfect option for a night/long weekend in Elora. Walking distance to restaurants, the Mill etc. Christine was a great host, responsive and thoughtful (ensuring the driveway was cleared despite a snowstorm). Highly recommend the Victoria Street Retreat.

Elora Christmas market weekend

The place was immaculate and a very short walk to the market and main street shops. When the keurig coffee maker acted up, the host was right over with another coffee maker and excellent coffee. Would 100% recommend this place if you're visiting Elora.

Perfect location !

We had a lovely stay. The location was near the pedestrian bridge. It was clean, cosy and very comfortable. Near all the activities yet far enough away to have a restful stay. Steps away from great restaurants and the Elora Mill. I would definitely go there again. Property manager was very helpful and quick to respond if there were any questions. You won’t be disappointed.

Gem In Elora

Absolute perfection. Almost don’t want to review and let the word out. Thoughtful amenities, beautiful space. So close to the village that we just parked and walked. Upon walking in, there was a diffuser going so instantly felt like we were stepping into a spa. Pictures on website are accurate. Space was private and very quiet. Killer location. Beautiful washroom and shower. Can’t wait to book again.

Home Away from Home

Right from the moment we arrived, we knew that our stay was going to be a good one. Both my husband and I have stayed in multiple vrbo's. The property grounds are well manicured and the exterior of the house is beautiful. The suite was very clean (bedroom, bathroom sitting area/kitchen. Well decorated. We had a slight problem opening the lock. We arrived when the sun was going down. A bit difficult to see the house symbol. Bed & pillows were comfortable and had a great quiet sleep. Would I rent again? Absolutely!

Great stay

This property is proof that all the best things come in small packages. The apartment was very well appointed and well equipped, it has everything you need. The location is super convenient, only steps away from the beautiful town of Elora. Christine, the host was easy to get hold of and very accommodating and friendly. I'd recommend packing ear plugs if you are likely to use the air conditioner - it works well but is quite loud. I would book again and highly recommend this property.

Great location walking distance to downtown & restaurants. The lighting in the kitchen is not good, the blue lights over the sink should be replaced with something brighter. Suitable for a short stay.
