Great place in a perfect location

Loved this vacation home! House is warm and inviting. It's one block from the lakefront park and 3 blocks from downtown NOTL. I would definitely stay here again

A beautiful Gem and prime location!

What a beautiful cottage! The care and warmth that went into this gem is highly apparent as soon as you walk through the door. The decor creates a warm and relaxing ambiance, a beautiful bookcase invites you to just pick a good read and relax! The beds are made beautifully, the bedrooms are so airy and sunny, and oh so comfortable. Bathrooms are immaculate, oh so important in my opinion! Everything you need for a home away from home! We were delighted with The Barbara, we would highly recommend a stay, we give it a 5 Star ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
