Overall, a very nice place - close to the water, a quiet neighborhood and an especially good location. It's very close to the Shaw Festival theaters - so easy to walk and no need to pay for parking. We did find the window air conditions to be a bit noisy and the last step into the house from the outside is quite awkward - it's abnormally high.

The Cottage was spotlessly clean and adorable. Perfect for two. So many thoughtful touches throughout. Very close to everything Niagara On The Lake offers, yet very quiet and relaxing. We really enjoyed the well tended back yard. We felt like we were in a Disney movie. lolThe squirrels, rabbits, chipmunks, even a woodchuck came out to visit., too many birds to list. Just beautiful, will book here again and soon!

Great potential except for the construction project nextdoor

The property is located away from the hustle and bustle of Queen Street. We were looking forward to some peace and quiet. However the next door neighbor was doing construction on his property right outside the bedroom windows. The house lacks good AC and it was warm and humid when we were there. We could not enjoy the backyard and the lake breezes because of the noise next door. Had we known those things, we probably would’ve chose to stay somewhere else. Too bad as it has the potential to be a great getaway spot.

I cannot say enough good things about this cottage. It is a five minute walk up to Queen St with all the history, shops and restaurants. The lake is a two minute walk. It is convenient to all the wineries.

Old Town District

We frequent Niagara on the Lake and this was the first time staying in a cottage. The owners were wonderful to deal with and prompt in answering questions. It was clean and had everything we needed for our stay. No worries for parking and was in walking distance to the main strip. We would definitely stay there again.

Perfect little place in a great location

This place was perfect for my daughter and me. It was just the right size for two, and the location was hard to beat. We were just a couple blocks away from both the main drag and the water. Simple check in and check out, everything worked, and communication with the owners was easy. Thanks for a great stay!

2-night Getaway

I chose Hawsepiper Cottage for a 2-night getaway with my mother, and it was perfect. The unit is compact and cozy, and very clean. The kitchen is extremely well-equipped, the beds are comfortable, and the linens and towels are high-quality and plentiful. We appreciated the easy access to the waterfront. Communication with the host was very good and there was lots of clear, easy-to-find information in the unit about how things worked. There is one change from the posted photos: there is no longer a table in the kitchen, it has been replaced with a built-in bar and stools, so you sit facing the wall. In addition, if you look at the property on Streetview there is just a grassy open space next to it. That is now a large, 2-storey home in the process of being finished. The properties are very close together and both bedrooms have windows facing this new build. We were a little taken aback to have workmen directly outside the bedroom windows at 7am. This did not create a problem, it was just surprising.Unfortunately, the weather was very wet so we weren’t able to make use of the outdoor seating or enjoy the lovely and well-kept property. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay none-the-less, and would return.

Convenient, Clean, and Quaint!

I met a friend here for a quick girls' weekend. The location is perfect... Close walking distance to the railway, lake, parks, and Queen Street shops and restaurants. It was an easy bike or drive to many wineries too! The home was very comfortable and had everything we needed. The owners were responsive and helpful. We would absolutely stay here again for another visit!

Getaway in NOTL

Great location, walking distance to the center of town. Owners of the property are close by and took great care of us when we requested a couple of items for our stay. If we get back to NOTL, we will most certainly look to see if one of their properties is available for our stay.

January get away.

Very cute and clean. This is definitely a cottage and it was a little chilly in January. (The bathroom floor is very cold.) The kitchen is tired, but well stocked and functional. Seems very minor, but the refrigerator door opens on the wrong side which just makes things awkward and could easily be switched. Hosts were great. Shovelled the driveway and brushed off our cars after a snowfall.
