About this property
Old Town Charm With Modern Amenities Steps To Downtown
In the Heart of Niagara-on-the-Lake
The Flynn House is situated steps away from the quaint downtown Queen Street area where you will find world class restaurants, the Shaw Festival and local boutiques. It is also conveniently located near some of Ontario’s most famous wineries.
It was built in the 1860's by George Flynn (a shoemaker) for his family and later during World War II, it was the meeting place for the Knights of Columbus. Rich in history, the home has recently been restored to feature modern amenities while maintaining the property’s old world charm such as wide plank floors and French doors.
The Flynn House sleeps up to 8 people and features two full bathrooms and one powder room with a sink and toilet, four bedrooms, a large dining room and living room and a fully equipped kitchen.
We offer a smoke-free, pet-free environment. All towels and linens are included. Open year-round.
Looking for something more quaint? You made be interested in our sister property - The Swinton Cottage - located just a few blocks away.

Perfect location for enjoying historic downtown and the waterfront. Many lovely wineries nearby. St Catherine's is close by as well. Thoroughly enjoyed our visit!
Location couldn’t have been any better the size perfect plenty of space for everybody the backyard although we didn’t spend too much time in it was great would recommend for a large group. We were eight people, and everybody had plenty of space and privacy as well.!
The house needs real renovation so and the owners need to make sure it’s free of mice because clearly there is a mouse living in the house

Response from VrboOwner on 15 June 2026
I would strongly recommend that this guest not rent a heritage-style home in the future, as she fails to understand that we go to great lengths to retain the homes' original character. As for the alleged mouse issue, this guest admitted to me that she may have left the kitchen door open and that she did leave leftover food on the kitchen countertop overnight. This property sits on a wooded area where there are field mice, and these mice are being disturbed at the current time as a result of our neighbours undergoing construction and removal of trees. Nevertheless, we quickly addressed the issue even though it was likely caused by their actions, and she was very grateful for our prompt response to her concerns.
Was an amazing stay with the family! The communication with the owner was incredible! The location is absolutely amazing. We had the best stay and will hopefully be back at some point. Thanks for a wonderful weekend!!
Family from Toronto, California and Nova Scotia stayed here for a family Celebration of Life. Florida family stayed down the street. The location was wonderful, the house was great and it was perfect for our weekend to celebrate the life of Mom, Grandma and Great-Grandma.
This was a beautiful home to stay in. So close to downtown, nice big back yard to sit in, and a beautiful home inside. Would definitely stay there again!
Great location. Well-equipped kitchen. Theaters, shops, and restaurants nearby. We would stay again. Suggestions:Unlocking back door was a challenge. Wood around tub and baseboards in upstairs bathroom were not clean. Lamp needed in first upstairs bedroom.
We had a great time at NOTL. The Flynn House was a great location for us. We were able to walk to everything. Plenty of space as well. We enjoyed our stay there.
Definitely old-world charm. Super comfortable beds. Well stocked kitchen, including French press. Steps away from Queen Street & the river.@ 10 minutes' drive to multiple wineries. Highly recommend this house.
This is my third time staying in the Flynn house for a friend’s getaway and it did not disappoint. The house is beautiful, location is amazing and check-in is a breeze. We hope to come back again next year!
