Gate House Review
Our stay was excellent. Location was ideal - we were able to walk to all the theaters and restaurants. All the flowers on the property are beautiful. But there were 2 maintenance issues: Front porch steps are rotting away and must be repaired/replaced immediately. And a minor item - the inside doorknob on the downstairs bedroom fell off. I shoved it back on but didn't have a screwdriver to tighten the screw. Lovely place. We would go back.

Convenient location, nice amenities, like start up code, laundry soap, etc. warm upstairs ceiling fans or any fan would be nice. Outside garden and back porch would be super nice if taken care of. All in all we had a nice time.

Nice home in a great location
The property is in a fantastic location. Literally steps from all the action on Queens St, and a 5 minute walk down to the golf course on the lake. The home looks just like the photos and the two story bedroom separation worked well for two couples to have privacy when sleeping & getting ready. All the amenities came in handy and everything worked well in the home. We wouldn't hesitate to stay here again, and have already recommended it to friends.

Great place to stay
The house was clean and everything was as promised. Instructions for check in and check out were sent in advance and were clear. The wifi stopped working one day and despite it not being urgent or an emergency, Jason was there in a few minutes to get it back up and running. Would gladly stay there again and recommend to friends and family.

Old home in great neighborhood
We loved the space and location. It is an old home so there are quirks (interior doors don’t stay closed, windows are hard to keep open, there is a strong musty smell), but overall a great place.

Wonderful vacation home
We had a wonderful time staying at Gate Street Cottage. The location is literally steps from all the fun shops and restaurants on Queen Street. The property was very clean and the beds were very comfortable. We had a lot of fun playing games at the table and hanging on on the front porch. Niagara on the Lake is beautiful and there is so much to do.
