Cozy cottage close to town

This cozy cottage was the perfect place for a getaway weekend for two! We loved the quaint town of Niagara on the Lake! The cottage is within walking distance to cute shops, restaurants, wineries and breweries in the area. It’s also a short 20-30 minute drive to Niagara Falls. We’ll definitely be back!

Great romantic cottage in a great location

My girlfriend and I greatly enjoyed our two-night stay at the Bramble Rose Cottage which was very clean, cozy, and unique. A great location just a few blocks from NOTL's main commercial area and in a quiet residential settings also close to quite a few wineries. I would definitely recommend this property to any couple visiting the area. Thanks for letting us stay at your property.

Great Cottage in Niagara on the Lake

This was the second time we have stayed here. It is the perfect size for the two of us. We love sitting on the back patio and eating dinner out there when the weather cooperates. The gardens surrounding the house are wonderful. We love the location. The neighborhood is very pedestrian friendly and it is only about a 15 minute walk to the river. It is close to wineries, downtown and the Shaw festival. Its also only about 20 minutes to Niagara Falls. Its a perfect romantic escape.

Wonderful home away from home!

My wife and I spent a week-end in Niagara-on-the-Lake at the Bramble Rose Cottage and had a wonderful time. We certainly plan to go back! The location is perfect, on a quiet street close to downtown. The cottage is so nicely maintained and clean with all the amenities one needs - the perfect place for a couple's get away. The nice natural light, the fire place, the high ceilings, the well equipped kitchen, the spacious bathroom, and the comfy bed/sofas, all make it a great alternative to a hotel room. If you ever are in Niagara-on-the-lake, stay at Bramble Rose!

Good service

Most of the electricity went out one night but I messaged the manager through the VRBO app at 5:30 in the morning and he called me right away and talked me through finding the circuit breaker box and we were back in business.

This Cottage topped off an Amazing Week in NOTL!

The Bramble Rose Cottage was above and beyond what we expected!! First and foremost, the cottage was super-clean and tidy. Lots of small touches to add to the experience! Warm and Cozy, even with the arctic blast that came through this past weekend. We were able to leave the rental car at the cottage and walk to town for shopping, the Ice wine Fest, and to dine. The owners were great, friendly, and helpful. We enjoyed the board games, spoke with hospitable neighbors, and explored the area on foot, enjoying the snow that we never see back home! We had an amazing time!

Perfect little spot for a fun getaway

My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. The cottage was perfect. The description and positive reviews were all true. It had everything we needed and we were very comfortable there. We had never been to Niagra area before and so there was plenty to see and explore. You can walk into town to shop, the theater show we saw was top rate and touring the vineyards and craft breweries awesome. We also had the best meal of our lives at Backhouse. Rather expensive but so worth the experience of watching the nine course meal cooked over wood fires right in front of us! Definitely recommend staying at the cottage! Thank you! Tim and Beth

Perfect, romantic location for couples wanting to go wine tasting and visit NOTL

The property was as advertised. It is the perfect location for walking to Zoom Leisure to rent bicycles to go out for wine tastings and also just a short walk to the main street downtown. We would definitely recommend this little cottage for couples seeking a weekend away. We had booked the property for four nights, but unfortunately I became very ill with a previously known condition and we were only able to spend a single night in NOTL before I had to be admitted to hospital. We definitely plan to rent this place again and finish the trip that we were so excited about taking in the first place. We've visited NOTL a few times and had previously stayed at the Pillar and Post hotel. While nice, it was getting a bit tired for us and after discovering this little gem of a cottage, my wife and I both feel this is a much better option. Looking forward to our next visit in the future.

What a cozy, charming cottage in the heart of the old town section of Niagara On The Lake! It was walking distance from the lake, a beautiful golf course, and many shops, theatres & restaurants. The cottage had everything we needed including a quiet neighborhood & a very comfortable bed, both greatly appreciated after long & busy days of exploring the area!
