Gate Street Cottage was the perfect place to stay for our visit to NOTL! The Cottage was very clean and well-stocked with kitchen utensils, towels, paper products, etc. The location is great, with an easy walk to the shops and restaurants on Queen Street. We would definitely stay here again.

We loved the location. We walked to the Shaw Theater to see a fantastic play. We walked to restaurants and the park along the lake. We walked to fun shops and a wonderful grocery store. The town is so beautiful even though we were there during the smoke from the wildfires. The front porch is the perfect spot to have a morning cup of tea and watch the people walking by. The indoor space was even better than it looks in the photos. We definitely recommend this rental.

Very nice. It suited all our needs and we were quite happy. We would book here again. The location was perfect. The shower head in the downstairs bathroom needs to be changed out. And providing soap and shampoo in the showers is not a must, but it would have been a nice to have. And trimming back some of the plant growth around the property, especially along the driveway, would help.
