Very enjoyable two day visit

Could not have felt more comfortable with the property and the service. A special shout out to Antoinette and Emma at the front desk for their helpfulness and friendliness along with the people in the breakfast area and Allison the shuttle driver. Also loved the short distance into the village shops and the convenience of having another sister property, Queens, Landing, right across the road Enjoyed the breakfast and the free happy hour.

We were looking for a cheap, quick getaway, so our expectations weren't especially high. We surprised by the excellent facilities, amenities, and service. From check-in (with home-made cookies) to check-out, never have we had such enthusiastic care and attention from the staff at any other establishment in North America. Value added included a continental ( ) breakfast (included eggs, and tea/coffee service), afternoon wine tastings, and free shuttle service to the main area of town (Alison, the shuttle driver, was extremely helpful and accommodating). The room was beautiful, tastefully decorated, with a gas fireplace, Nespresso machine, fridge, etc. The bathroom featured an over-sized tub with jets and a very large shower. Downsides: the room was extremely warm—no real occasion to use the fireplace and no room-specific climate control (with the fan on, even -3º cold from outside the open windows didn't make it into the room). Although equipped with a TV, it was pretty outdated with no streaming options and limited cable channels—not that that was a high priority for us. Torn between recommending this place and "keeping it our secret."

The perfect get away

My husband and I visited Niagara on the Lake for our mini honeymoon and the Harbor House was the perfect place for us. It was quiet and private while still being close to town. We loved the shuttle service that came with our stay and the staff was very nice and a wealth of information!
