5 bedroom Rustic Farmhouse w acres of solitude, close to Niagara & Wine Country
A piece of Heaven in the middle of the woods, it's a bird sanctuary, with a private lake and a pond. The property is off the beaten path and yet easily accessible from both Toronto and Buffalo, located 15 min drive from Niagara Falls. We have been feeding birds for 30 years so upon arrival, you will be greeted by a variety of different bird species. You can relax and walk the multiple paths through the lush fields to your own private swimming lake that has been stocked with bass in case there is a fisherman in your group. Alternatively, you can sit back and enjoy the quiet and solaces of just being in nature. The house itself is cozy with multiple rooms and areas to congregate or you can find a quite nook to have solo time if that is what you wish. When it comes to unwinding in the colder months there is a claw foot tub, a wood burning fireplace and a sauna; in the warmer months, hammocks, outdoor couches to relax on after a long day of wine touring, or fishing on the Niagara River or spending the day at any of the numerous close by and beautiful beaches. Needless to say, you will never find yourself with nothing to do unless that is what you want.
Beautiful location and property. The weather was not the best. But we explored the grounds and had morning coffee by the lake. Perfect quiet location but close enough to Niagara for theTourist attractions. Will definitely book again.
We stayed 4 nights in this truly rustic mid 1800s farmhouse. âWeâ included 6 adults and 3 children aged 4 and under. The home was very roomy for us and also child friendly.
John was very easy to communicate with, often responding in a very short period of time, and he was so helpful with questions. Through a binder left in the kitchen, he shared many helpful tips since with the age of this house, there also came some quirks, but all were workable. We were provided an abundance of towels and toiletries for our use. All the linens were freshly laundered and the beds were very comfortable. The kitchen was well stocked and of large size so preparing meals was very easy.
Once the rain let up, we were able to enjoy the expansive outdoors with everything so well maintained. The number of birds visiting the feeders was astounding and very fun to watch! There are plenty of areas outside to relax. Such a beautiful property!!!
My friends and I enjoyed our stay here, it was raining the majority of the time, but there was still enough room for 11 of us to comfortably converse inside. The sauna was great and the house was very well kept. Will hopefully be back when it is less rainy and muddy. John was a great host!
This is a beautiful property. There is plenty of room to roam on purposeful trails with lush views and all kinds of wildlife! It is a secluded retreat close to all amenities. We enjoyed our stay very much!
The property was great, lots of space to explore and relax in an outdoors setting. John was a great host. He was very accommodating from the very beginning and wanted to provide us the best experience possible.
