A wonderful place to stay

We really wish we had had more time to stay a little longer. The accommodation was brilliant with every possible need catered for. Plenty of space for the 6 of us and was handy for Niagara and the town of Niagara on the Lake. Would really recommend By the Vines to anyone.
