Spring Weekend in NOTL
Well equipped and spacious spot for 3 of us. Could easily accommodate more people. Very clean, comfortable beds. Great location...short walk to the Pillar and Post and the gardens across which are lovely to stroll. It's an older home, so there are some squeaks and creaks but nothing overly bothersome. Would definitely stay again!

Lovely Home
Three retired friends for the week, we each had our own bedroom which was great. The open area is large. The kitchen is well equipped. Large bathroom, great lighting for putting on makeup. The layout of the house was so functional, I would love to live there!!!! The house is also very bright. Great location. Our only complaint is that there were 2 stains on the carpet downstairs as well as the stairs and one dining room chair that perhaps should be addressed. Also the chair at the desk in the basement is disintegrating without being touched.

Great location
Rooms worked really well for 4 adults and my 23 yr old loved the basement space to himself. would have been nice to have a master bathroom vs share with younger son especially with no lock on the door!! And a small chest of drawers in master to put clothes in would be a welcome addition. Backyard not that usable for outdoor meal for 4, table too small and space a bit small so we ate dinners out. Great location with green space out back (tho a bit hard to access through overgrown shrubs) and super short walk to town.

Wonderful 12-day stay at Nelles Cottage
I chose Nelles Cottage because of the location and they would let me bring my dog. It was just perfect! It was three blocks to the Shaw’s Festival Theatre, and about five to the Royal George, the primary reason for going to NOTL. But then I discovered the Butlers Barracks about two blocks away with a huge off-leash field with lots of friendly people and their dogs. The house itself was great, with front porch seating in the afternoon, and table and chairs in the lush back yard for lattes (from Balzac’s, 3 blocks away) and breakfast in the morning. The kitchen was well-equipped. Everything was spotless, and perfect with three bedrooms for our group of four. All of our group, some from as far away as California, loved NOTL and Niagara, and Nelles Cottage checked all the boxes. I hope to come again and stay there next year!

The booking and check in process were very fast and professional. The cottage is ideally located a short stroll from Old Town. Well equipped with all the essentials. They even had provided an extra BBQ tank in anticipation that the one we were using might run out. Bed was comfortable. Our dog loved the back yard and the nearby dog park. Will definitely book again.

Horrible Customer Service and Hosts
I cannot provide feedback on the cottage as I did not use it. I can provide a review of my experience with Niagara Holiday Rental. In short, I found their empathy, flexibility compassion,and customer service to be horrible.STAY AWAY FROM THIS COMPANY. I had booked the cottage to stay with my wife,both seniors,and our 90+ parent. Unfortunately, our dog became ill (she lost her sight) with some complications. Since my cancellation insurance did not cover dogs, I contacted Niagara Holiday Rentals to explore alternatives. They told me that I was not entitled to a refund (which I knew) nor could they do anything to help me with the situation. I asked if I could gift it to a friend and I was told no and since I booked & paid for the cottage, I had to always be present too. I called to clarify this condition and I was told yes. With that limitation, my wife and our 90+ parent could not use the cottage either, since I would have to be with my dog, even though they were part of the initial group. It was very disappointing that this organization, in extenuating circumstances, will not try to help its customers by exploring all opportunities to provide flexibility. This is not the customer service one expects from any organization but particularly one tied to tourism. All they seemed to be interested in is the revenue and used their policy as the crutch. A company with such values should not be entrusted with your business. I would highly recommend that you stay away from them.
