We absolutely loved our stay at Anja's place. The house is gorgeous, and the hot tub, fire pit, and other outdoor spaces made the stay just that unique. We stayed here for a relaxing bachelorette weekend, and it was simply perfect! Thank you Anja.
We very much enjoyed our stay. Lots of room for friends. Was very clean and had a big back yard. All 14 friends could sit by the fire. Lots of golf courses to choose from and Smithville is only a short drive away for groceries liquor and restaurants. Highly recommend.
We had a wonderful stay! It was all of my extended family and we felt like we had enough space and room to play and be. The property was beautiful and well kept. My only negatives would be that the distance to a lot of the touristy things was a lot… we put over 700km on our rental car in 7 days 😂. And bugs, I could see mosquitoes being a big issue in the summer… we missed most of it, staying in May but they were starting to come out.
The hosts were wonderful and so easy to communicate with. Grateful for our time we had there!
Communication: With the owners was great. They provided a PDF document via email before our arrival with instructions and information about things to do in the area. Anja also
introduced herself upon arrival.
House: Beautiful. We had a group of 10 and never felt crowded. There are so many seating areas: the living room , the porch, the back deck, the side deck, the backyard and the fire pit. The home is very clean and well appointed.
Location: At the end of the street with nothing but woods behind you. Yet a 5 minute drive to a grocery store, 30 minutes to the Falls and close to wineries.
Would definitely recommend this vacation rental. You won’t be disappointed. My relatives from the UK enjoyed the house so much that they didn’t want to go sightseeing !

It was a pleasure meeting you and your guests. I am glad you enjoyed your stay and hope you come again.
The house was beautiful and Anja was an amazing hostess. She filled us in on all the nearby attractions. The house was spotless, had lots of storage areas and everything we needed for the week. We are a big family of 2 parents and 7 kids, ages 21-3. We had plenty of room for everyone. Everyone enjoyed the house, especially the hot tub!
Anja even brought over some toys for our children. Our kids loved visits from Charlie the dog! He is so smart and cute. We really had an amazing week. There is so much to see in the area and the house is perfect to come back to and relax.
