Relaxation by the lake

Hamlet Cottage was exactly as described and provided a picturesque location with easy access to the downtown area of Niagara on the Lake. We very much enjoyed the quiet neighbourhood and easy stroll to the foreshore of the lake which became a daily pilgrimage. Easy access to the Falls and other interesting places to see. Our hosts were most helpful with the odd little issue which arose.

Very comfortable with all our needs catered for. Wonderful nature walks in every direction but a car was necessary to tackle the distances to amenities and town. Only taxi and Uber access otherwise.

Quaint cottage

Nice cottage with all the amenities you need. The cottage is roomy, spotless and decorated nicely. I would recommend slippers if booking in the cooler months as the kitchen has no heat vents and is quite cool compared to the rest of the cottage. We would definitely book here again. This was our second visit to this cottage.

Serviceable

Some minor things I made certain to take pictures of during check-in process. Top 3 being the step between kitchen and living room (bows when stepped on), a large scratch on the living room floor which had been epoxies and one of the bathrooms had a cracked and re-plastered upper toilet lid. Owners were VERY persistent knocking at the front door first morning of our stay. We had previously communicated that we were attending a wedding that weekend. I feel knocking excessively like that was quite weird. I understand you may want to meet face to face but frankly knock twice, grab the ladder you wanted and return another time if you'd still like to meet. We did pay upfront and we were on vacation. It's not like it ruined our trip or anything but I do feel that I would be looking elsewhere if I were to revisit NotL The owners were not necessarily all that trusting. After all the knocking I had a cigarette while they were on the property and I was reminded to not flick cigarettes and use an ashtray....I pointed at the empty can I was actively using as an ashtray. Not exactly the first morning of my vacation I was hoping for. We did follow all rules as previously agreed and allowed them to grab their ladder and carry on. I don't know if they thought we were going to be troublemakers but I certainly know we are not going to be returning customers to these owners. I wish them the best regardless and I thank them for offering us a place to stay for the weekend.

Charming Weekend

Everything was as described. The charming cottage was clean, tidy, and very welcoming. The distance from the lake and a short walk to town was great for us. Peter and Debra were great hosts that responded to questions in great time. Thank you for sharing this property with us. We hope to come back again next year.

Shakespeare Hamlet Cottage

This is a very cute roomy cottage with 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. Lots of room for two couples or a family to enjoy. We love being in Shakespeare Street so this was a great find for us. Owners were super nice and always answered our questions. Would definitely stay here again.

21st Anniversary trip

This house was GREAT!! Super clean! We loved the neighborhood and enjoyed walking into town (took about 25 minutes) and looking at all the different style of houses. The owner Peter checked on us Saturday to make sure we were doing ok and asked if we needed anything. He is super nice! There is a park right down the street with access to a small beach where my husband and I enjoyed looking for sea glass. We even went to a garage sale down the street from the cottage. We visited multiple wineries and did the shops in town. We did a ghost walk also! Check in and check out instructions are super easy! We would absolutely stay here again! We can’t wait to come back! Thank you for a wonderful anniversary weekend!

Why they chose this property

The neighborhood is very quiet and has a 'cottagy' feel to it.

What makes this property unique

The beautiful stone fireplace is the centrepiece of this house and why we purchased it despite the odd floor plan (which we have since corrected).
