I had a wonderful stay at Melanie's place. It's clear that a lot of thought and care has gone into creating a comfortable space and it felt welcoming from the moment I arrived.The apartment is beautifully furnished with a comfy mattress, quality furniture, and stylish decor. The Frame TV with Netflix was a nice touch, and the Wi-Fi was excellent. I usually test internet speeds before work calls and it consistently came in between 300–530 Mbps.One of my favourite parts was the new patio overlooking the pool and backyard. I had my morning coffee outside and ate dinner there several evenings. It was really peaceful and a great place to relax.The property is surrounded by tall trees and is just a short walk to Mill Pond, where there's a beautiful forested trail around the pond.Melanie was awesome. She was friendly, responsive, and attentive whenever needed.I hope to stay here again someday and would recommend it to anyone looking for a quiet, comfortable place to stay.

I love hosting people and creating spaces that feel both beautiful and welcoming. Friends often tell me that I pay attention to the little details, and that's exactly what I hope you'll experience during your stay.

Why they chose this property

I chose the Mill Pond neighbourhood because of its natural beauty, rich history, and the memories it holds for me. When my children were young, I often brought them here for outings, and those days remain some of my happiest. There is a peaceful, timeless quality to this neighbourhood that always made me feel at home, and when the opportunity came to live here, I knew it was where I wanted to be. I hope my guests experience that same sense of home.

What makes this property unique

This studio was thoughtfully designed to be elegant and comfortable, with quality finishes and a private entrance for easy coming and going. A standout feature of the property is the large multi-level deck overlooking a peaceful backyard. The studio includes its own designated patio with a table, umbrella, and chairs for guest use. The backyard is shared, and I may occasionally be outside tending the garden or enjoying my own deck. Guests often appreciate the relaxed, natural atmosphere and the sense of space, greenery, and openness throughout the property.
