On the lake in wonderful house
Our group of 3 couples thoroughly enjoyed our long weekend in this house. The view of the lake is magnificent and the lake is literally right there. The house was super clean and well stocked without any clutter. It was a delightful time and I hope to return. No problems whatsoever.

Perfect September week on Lake Ontario
Johnny and his family provided us with a beautiful house and location. We were thrilled to have such a well-equipped kitchen to cook in and enjoy time with family and friends in the area. We were also very grateful for the welcome gift! This is a dream house and location. We cannot wait to visit again!

Beautiful Place
The neighborhood it quiet and friendly. The house is close to a ton of things to do. It was only 20 min to the Museum of Play, 15 min to Seabreeze. The park and beach are a few minutes walk. The kids loved building on the little beach by the deck and playing in the back yard. We had a very wonderful and relaxing time.

Best Vrbo
This was the nicest property we ever had the privilege of staying at. It was so nice that we didn’t want to leave. Of particular note was the view of the local gardens that line the “secret sidewalk” and, of course, the direct access to Lake Ontario. The home was extremely comfortable, fully stocked with amenities, and beautifully furnished. When we arrived, everything was spotlessly clean and the host, Johnny, even left a welcome gift! We would love to visit again!

Amazing views and location.
We absolutely loved our stay here. This was probably the best stocked rental home I've ever stayed in and i travel often. Bedrooms have an amazing view of the lake. Beds were very comfy and everything was so clean. The house was very cozy with a beautiful backyard and deck. We will definitely be coming back!

Wonderful Week
We loved staying at this home. Communication was prompt and always helpful. Check in was simple. The house was spotless and better than expected. It was the best-furnished home we have ever stayed in, including coffee, beach towels, beach chairs, foil, napkins, fully-stocked pantry and kitchen, and comfy beds, baths and furniture. House instructions were clear and complete. The home was beautiful, with direct lake access. We preferred to swim at home rather than the public beach, and found the water to be warm (72 degrees in July), clean, with only a few rocks, mostly sand. My favorite day was cooking a full three course meal in the kitchen, and then eating it on the table overlooking the lake. We did plenty of walking to ice cream, but also found minigolf and bowling a short ride away. S enjoyed playing golf on the nearby 9-hole course (18 holes there also). Hot tip: get up every morning for the sunrise. It's spectacular.
