About this cottage rental

Amazing and beautiful yurt right next to the Niagara River in a charming town. The home was built only in 2015 with love and care, personally designed by the owner-builder. There is nothing like this home in the area! If the beautiful wood ceiling won't amaze you then the gorgeous details will. Sleep on a comfortable queen size bed with extra space for one more on a large and comfy couch if needed. Stay in a gorgeous place for the famous Gateway Harbor seasonand Canal Fest! This is a yurt on a large corner lot. The water view can be seen right from the front windows and is 2 min walk away, if that. There is a large semi-circle driveway shared with another unit (homes are completely separate). You can easily fit two cars here. There is no overnight street parking November to April. Please note that the TV is a streaming Roku TV with access to 1,000 free live TV domestic and international channels (Buffalo WGRZ is available) as well as any streaming channels you subscribe to (Netflix, Hulu, Disney, etc.). This is not cable television. A starter pack of shampoo/conditioner and a small bar of soap is provided for your convenience. Please be sure to bring your own preferred toiletries should you need more than 2 days worth. Home is thoroughly first cleaned with a disinfectant solution of bleach and water where possible (commercial grade cleaner elsewhere). Commonly used areas like light switches, handles, door locks, toilets, showers, remotes, etc. are then additionally sanitized with steam. Linens are washed with commercial grade detergent with hot water and mechanically dried on high heat. There is audible live music from a nearby restaurant starting approximately in May through September. They play at various hours (not all day and not everyday) but the restaurant's operating hours are approximately 11 AM to 8:30 PM, 7 days a week. They have great ice cream! Stay in a beautiful and historic neighborhood where convenience is just minutes away. A famous carousel museum, antiquing and wonderful restaurants are right in town, 5 mins away. There's even a castle in town! Niawanda Park/Niagara River is just steps from the front door. Playground, other parks, 7/11, supermarket are all a 3 min drive down the road.

We stayed at Yurt for a long weekend. Jolee was amazing to work with. She sent us a list of places to see and food places to try while we were in town. The "Cottage" as I called it was cozy and comfortable. It was nice to stay in something more private then a hotel. We enjoyed our visit and would book again in the future if we come back to Buffalo!

Everything was just as the description said. Perfect location to be near the Falls, airport and Highmark Stadium, but not in the mix/hustle of those areas.

Our son plays college football and had a Saturday game at the University at Buffalo, so we decided to stay a few extra days and explore the area. The Yurt was perfectly positioned for us to enjoy the whole area. It’s about 15 minutes to the UB north campus, 1 minute to Tonawanda, 100 yards to the scenic trail along the Niagara River, and about 30 minutes to Lake Ontario. Jolee was great to work with. She’s very professional and responsive. The yurt is simple, cozy and comfortable. This is a great place for couples to stay and use as a home base for visiting nearby restaurants and attractions.

We very much enjoyed our time in Tonawanda and exploring the surrounding area. Jolee gave us some wonderful suggestions of places to eat / things to do locally and we found the yurt very welcoming! We only have good things to say about our stay! Thank you, Jolee, for helping make this trip so enjoyable!

Loved our stay at this VRBO! Cute, close to the Niagara River for walks or just relaxing. A great casual restaurant is right across the street, with live music several nights a week. Really fun!
