Perfect little weekend getaway to see the magnificent Niagara Falls. Cora was absolutely amazing with everything from communication to suggestions on food and what to see. The house had everything you needed and so close to everything in each direction. House was immaculate and the beds extra comfy. Beautiful views and peaceful location.

Definitely highly recommendable guests; I'd love to have them back anytime.
Great place. Perfect size, as we allowed for other family members to stay if needed. Great view of the pond out back. The house was close to family residences and major roads in ON. Had a great conversation with Cora. Spotless and comfortable.

Cora's place was amazing!!!! So very clean, fresh & comfortable & in a nice quiet residential location.... close enough to all the attractions of the Niagara region but a nice relaxing retreat after a busy day sightseeing. Cora was very attentive & close to hand if needed..... not that we needed her assistance as all instructions were very clear & concise. We would highly recommend this home & hope to stay again whenever we have family visiting

Great to have you here at your wife's bday. Thank you for being a wonderful guests with family.
We had a great stay in Cora’s home. It was exactly what we needed, lots of room, clean and comfortable. Cora was great when we needed extra kitchen things and there for us if we had any questions. We would absolutely stay again!
Cora’s home is a cozy, well appointed peaceful haven in Niagara! The amenities are top notch, the decor chic and homey and the pond view is stellar!!! Cora is a perfect and attentive host!!! It’s a wonderful stay for families. I truly enjoyed waking up to a coffee on the deck watching the birds by the pond. I would definitely stay again!

We had a wonderful time at this accommodation. The host was extremely friendly and helpful. The home was beautiful, well appointed and very comfortable. Best part was waking up to the birds chirping in the backyard nature area. So peaceful. Would definitely recommend to friends and family.

Thank you Olivia for your review. I appreciate it. I just saw your review as I was away for 1.5 months on a long trip to the Philippines. I hope all's well with you. Take care!
House is beautiful, even better than the photos. Dining table and back deck table gave a little pond. There is so much wildlife. We saw whole flocks of birds and little rabbits running around. The area is quiet and easy to get to. It’s about 20ish mins from Niagara Falls and so much better than a hotel. The owner is a wonderful, kind person. She has put so much thought into everything. The kitchen is well stocked and has everything you need to cook your own food instead of eating out. Can’t say enough good things. We had a wonderful stay!

Cora
I am from Canada, an immigrant from the Philippines, in the last 25 years.
I am a baby boomer, a mother of 4 adults - 2 girls and 2 boys and grandmother to 14-year old Leon.
I was a Certified Accountant then switched to real estate then personal growth and development and neuro linguistics programming (NLP).
I am the founder of Toronto Women's Club and Cora Cristobal Institute. I have written & co-written 7 books, 3 of which are best sellers.
I now enjoy being a realtor and AIRBNB Host. I love meeting people, helping people and making new friends all over the world.
Why they chose this property
My place is in a central area of Niagara where I can easily access through highways 406, 58 and QEW. There are 3 airports that I can choose from - Lester Pearson International Airport in Toronto, Canada, John Munro International Airport in Hamilton, Canada and Buffalo International Airport in Buffalo, New York, USA.
I chose this neighbourhood because it is newly built, peaceful, safe community. I love being in the Niagara Region because of what it offers - Niagara Falls, Niagara on the Lake, farms, wineries, great restaurants, entertainment, hiking and scenic walking areas, waterfalls, less traffic and accessible to all amenities.
What makes this property unique
This property is well appointed premium lot and one of the few units with absolutely stunning, unobstructed view of the pond and lush greeneries at the backyard. There is a deck accessible by sliding door from the living room or if you love to walk during nice weather, you can pass by either sides of the 3-unit townhouse complex.
It is also a few minutes walk to the children's playground and open space and a short trail at the back of the townhouses.
You can also enjoy walking along the protected areas at Grisdale Road. Please check the map showing amenities at the photos section (last one), to guide you the fabulous amenities in this amazing community.
