We had a fantastic experience with this vacation rental. We stayed for one week in November 2012 (two couples with three small children between us). The house was immaculate and tastefully decorated, without a lot of nic nacs which was important for us since we had three toddlers running around. Basement was semi-finished which worked out well for us, since the kids could play in the carpeted area which currently does not have furniture (though I believe the owner is planning to furnish it in early 2013). Kitchen is gorgeous and the appliances (including washer and dryer) are top-notch. Backyard is also lovely. Cleaning products and paper products were all provided, as well as some toiletries. Owner was proactive and very responsive to any of our queries -- a real pleasure to deal with. Neighbourhood was great -- lots of little shops and restaurants a block away, and parks and the library within a short drive so perfect for people travelling with kids. We would highly recommend this home to anyone looking for a quality vacation rental in a great Toronto neighbourhood.

Really enjoyed our stay and will be back next time we are in the Toronto area. Fantastic location with lots to do right on your doorstep. Very pretty, peaceful neighbourhood. Ralph was a pleasure to interact with and very professional. He responded quickly to any queries we had. Thank you very much.

All the comfort needed in a peaceful setting with easy access to downtown Toronto!
Couldn't be better. Will be back next time we travel in the area!

Thanks Ralph for the beautiful rental while we were in Toronto, it was just as advertised only the pictures didn't show how nice it really is! We all had a great time at the wedding and your house provided a great place for us to hang out with family between the wedding and the reception. Everything was very clean and new and your decor made us feel like we were at home. The new bathroom in the basement is awesome and I'm sure when the rest of the basement is finished it will be beautiful as well. All in all we had an absolutely great time and I would highly recommend your home to anyone visiting Toronto.

My family (2 young kids, 2 adults) and my parents stayed at this house in July and we were very impressed with the quality of the home. Very well and tastefully furnished. It's in an excellent location to downtown if you want to be close to the city, but escape some of the traffic. Also, it's in a great location for shopping and eating. The owners were GREAT to work with. Very responsive and informative. Overall, we had a nice time and would definitely recommend this rental to anyone wanting a quick get away to Toronto.

This property met our expectations and then some! On our approach we were pleasantly surprised with this delightful neighbourhood. A well-maintained street with quiet but friendly neighbours. A lovely green tree lined road which provided shade for our hire car during the August heat. Once inside the property there were lots of 'Wows' and 'Ahs' as we aquainted ourselves with what would be our home for 2 weeks. We were met with the cool from the airconditioning (outside was 30'C when we arrived at midday). Furnishings fitted the bill perfectly, the main living areas neutrally coloured and very clean. Wood floors and thick rugs complete the look. I was amazed at how well the kitchen was appointed with gadgets and plenty of cooking equipment: pots, pans, bowls and utensils. I managed to cook up quite a storm when we had our Canadian family for lunch. Outside there is a gas BBQ which works off the mains supply- what a brilliant idea, we haven't thought of that yet in the UK! Again, many a tasty dish was created on that grill. Downstairs, the cellar (basement) is under development. However we were able to use the beautiful hotel-style bathroom with huge power shower, although my concern is that damp may be a problem in the future. Would love to come back and see how the basement is converted. Upstairs is a haven for coolness during the hot summer with aircon in all 3 bedrooms and a fan at the top of the stairs. We found the aircon noisy as we Brits are not used to it so we turned it off for sleeping. The rooms remained cool until the morning. Furnishings again as seen in the pictures are spot on and well looked after. How lovely to find the cupboards in the main bathroom well stocked with quality toiletries, sun cream and a first aid kit. Towels are white and fluffy although a little small for our tall family. The beds were some of the most comfortable we have experienced while on holiday. Lots of novels and magazines can be found around the house with tips on what to do in Toronto. The position of the house was perfect. Far enough away from the bright lights to give us peace when we wanted it but only a 25 min bus and subway ride to the city. There are some fantastic shops, restaurants and bars only a 5 minute walk away including Loblaws the supermarket just round the corner (with a big carpark). There is a well cared for cemmetry at the end of Airdrie which was nice for a tranquil stroll or jog and gives access to more shops. A super place to reflect.

Our family of five (three teenagers) enjoyed a very pleasant stay at Airdrie Rd for three months. The property is beautifully appointed, with comfortable furnishings, a magnificent fireplace, and a pretty back yard. The kitchen is very well equipped with everything we required to whip up meals for family and friends, and we made good use of the outdoor entertaining area. The kids loved soaking in the claw-foot bath, while the basement is fitted out with a hot and strong massage-head shower! We were also provided with an assortment of books, magazines and dvds. The neighbourhood is gorgeous, with leafy tree-lined streets, and a great range of shops, cafes, restaurants and amenities within an easy walking distance. Public transport is a breeze, with bus and train services getting you downtown in under 20 minutes. The owners are very helpful and accommodating, and are always available for assistance, providing us with everything we needed for our extended holiday. We loved exploring Toronto's various neighbourhoods and attractions, and the kids loved all the rides at Wonderland. If you have a car, make sure you get out to the small towns like St. Jacobs, Niagara-on-the-Lake or Picton.
A truly memorable stay in a top location.
It was very difficult to leave our home away from home.

Thanks for letting us stay in your wonderful home, we had a great time. It really surpassed all our expectations...especially the lovely bottle of red wine.

We’re all safely back home...looking forward to returning to work on Monday!
