Well positioned in the middle of Barrie, this property is close to shops, restaurants, and the beach.Property manager is nice and easy to work with. Check in was simple and fast.
Very nice and relaxing stay. The host was super sweet and helpful. The location is great 5 min walk from the beach. Over all we had a good time staying at this location
This little home is a gem. Everything we needed was provided. The home is within easy walking distance to a fantastic beach, park, and boardwalk. The gardens are wonderful.
We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. The home is beautiful and well kept, comfortable, and conveniently located to downtown Barrie and the water park. We wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again! Thanks!
Great place to stay. All amenities and then some. Fatemeh greeted us, showed us around, and explained everything before retreating to the basement. We took our cat and he was quite comfortable once he got to sniff around. Cozy place and very friendly host.
Quiet home in Barrie, just a show walk to beach, 5 min drive to downtown.
What a lovely, cozy place. We had so much fun. Very relaxing, it was nice to have a comfortable living room and full kitchen to prepare meals for the four of us. We enjoyed being able to sit out on the patio relax and catch up. Bedrooms were very comfortable. Being just two blocks off the beach and a five minute drive to the downtown area was a big plus too. I would highly recommend this place if you are looking for a quiet enjoyable get away convenient to lake Simcoe attractions.
And a big plus for Fatemeh, who is a very gracious host.
Great location and space to relax and unwind. We stayed two nights and had a great visit. The house was as described. The host was very responsive and helpful. Would stay again if we return to Barrie.
beautiful house, comfortable beds, well equipped kitchen. best of all was meeting the host! my mother and I enjoyed our stay and we felt very much welcomed and at home there. thank you!
House was nice. Fatima is a very nice lady & will help you with whatever you need. I would stay again.

Clearly the owners live in the home when not rented. Cluttered with personal effects, way too many rules (couldnt use the towel on the only towel bar in the bathroom, couldn’t open windows or touch thermostat) but left tablet and was returned immediately.
Our host was incredibly accommodating, while providing a very clean, cozy and inviting home. We will definitely be back for our next convention work in Barrie!
Thank you!!
The people who welcomed us were very friendly and made sure our stay was safe and comfortable. The house was very close to the beach and other things, making everything a great walking distance.
The place felt like we were not in a place designed to be rented out, but like we were invading someones home. There were too many furniture and personal effects around the vrbo, including photos of kids.While the unit had a numbered lock, the host insisted on meeting at the door, giving a tour, and giving the code in person instead of through the vrbo app.

If privacy is your thing…
The house was quaint, quiet, and situated in a lovely location. Everything we needed was thoughtfully provided, making our stay comfortable.However, there were a couple of drawbacks to note. The two large windows in the back of the house, located in the kitchen and living room, lacked proper window coverings that close, which made the space feel less private. Additionally, the upstairs bathroom window had no covering at all. While it’s high enough that someone might assume privacy, I personally feel more comfortable with a covered window in such a space.Another point to consider is the laundry situation. The laundry is not in the unit, and you’ll need to coordinate with the homeowner to schedule a time to use it. During my laundry session, the homeowner stayed nearby and observed the entire process, which felt a bit uncomfortable.The homeowner was very kind but, I reached out with a question on the first night and didn’t receive a response until the following day, which might be a challenge if you need assistance promptly.Overall, it’s a very well-kept and pleasant home, ideal for a family stay. With a few adjustments for privacy and communication, it could be an even better experience! Beautiful home, nice people, great location.!
