Everything is fantastic. The host is really friendly and kind, plus the room interior is uniquely designed yet well-balanced. This is a place to take a good rest, however, it's better to drive a car here.
The Explorer House was an absolutely beautiful place to stay! The owners , Deanna and Alec, were more than accommodating. Their attention to detail makes it an extra special experience. The breakfast every morning is exceptional. (Make sure to bring an appetite!) we went during a snow storm, so we utilized Uber for transportation, but in the warmers months, it’s an easy walk into the historical town with lots of shopping and places to eat. 10/10 recommended and would definitely come back again !
I do not usually write reviews, but we loved our stay here. We love various types of foods, and the breakfast was amazing. Would stay here again, what a great way to celebrate our anniversary!
Deanna and Alec were very friendly and knowledgeable of the region. Gourmet breakfasts were amazing. Convenient to all the Niagara on the Lake activities.
Very welcoming and comfortable B&B. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The rooms are separate from the rest of the house along with a mini kitchenette and lounge area for the guests. Breakfast was served in the dining room and was phenomenal! I highly recommend this B & B for your next Niagara visit.

Very unique property, decoration of the suites second to none. Hosts exceptional. Breakfast spectacular. Amenities covered all the bases and then some. Would definitely recommend.
We very much enjoyed staying here. The proprietors are friendly and responsive. Amenities were excellent; breakfast was wonderful. One of the best parts was talking to the owners; it quickly became evident why they call it "Explorer House." The house only has three rooms and you are seated together for breakfast, enhancing the experience one gets with a true B&B. Cannot recommend this one enough.
Fantastic little gem in NOTL Very quiet street a short walk to all the shops, restaurants, theatre. Lovely owners who truly put an effort into ensuring you are comfortable. Breakfast was smashing. A very nice quest area outside to relax in also.
Deana and Alec's Explorer House was impeccable in every way....detail to all amenities, cleanliness, decor, comfort, privacy, etc. They thought of everything their guests could want and provided it! The rooms and grounds are lovely! The breakfast was wonderful....especially the homemade maple/walnut scones! We would highly recommend their lovely B&B!
We had a wonderful experience with very helpful and knowledgeable hosts who provided us with great advice to get the most out of our visit. Deanna and Alec prepare amazing breakfasts, you won’t want to miss!
Very nice place. Exceeded expectations. Owners were fantastic and the breakfasts that were provided were great. Very clean and quiet place. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
