About this house rental
River's Edge is truly magnificent. It sits right on the water’s edge by a beach and feels like floating over the Lake - totally romantic and breath taking. The views are literally million dollar views – River’s Edge is unique in Niagara-on-the-Lake in having complete 180 degree views from the Niagara river and Fort Niagara to the U.S. on the right to Lake Ontario and even Toronto in the far distance. And with a beach at our side gate.
From the front door to every point of this luxury cottage you have a view of the water. You can be in the kitchen making a snack or dinner and you have a view of the lake and river. The main floor of this cottage is all open plan. If you are sitting in front of the gas/coal fireplace or watching television you have a stunning view of the Lake and Niagara River!
Going upstairs the view from the floor to ceiling windows on the stairwell is … simply amazing! The bedroom is spectacular. You can lie in bed and still have this incredible view of the Niagara River and the Old Fort Niagara state-side, and look out to the Lake on the other. There is a larger corner tub from where you can watch the boats and ducks go by! In River’s Edge you are in a totally different world….. while at the same time we provide free Wi-Fi so that you can stay in touch.
If you invite another couple or bring the kids along, there is the very comfortable Murphy bed in the second bedroom room that faces the very quiet street. This room also has a washer and dryer in it.
Downstairs, the sliding back doors open on to the amazing patio. The top patio is nice and it has patio furniture and BBQ/grill. The lower patio has a small relaxing pool for dipping and relaxing on summer days. Here you can sit and enjoy a glass of local wine and watch the birds and ships drift past…..

The house was a perfect to celebrate our anniversary. The house being right on the water and still a short walk to Queen Street was fantastic. The Owner and her representative were very easy to deal with.

This unique house is located right on the Niagara River across from Fort Niagara.
It's a beautiful location and there's always something to watch on the river - sailing boats, fishing boats, ducks, goslings, herons and kingfishers. And the chatty little swallows love to perch on the deck.
The house has all the necessary amenities and is well maintained and spotlessly clean. The property manager, Monika, is very attentive and responsive to any issues - we didn't have any issues during our stay but it was reassuring to have her available. The hosts, Anna and Donald, are gracious and take very good care of their lovely house and want to ensure their guests have a good time.
We love spending time in Niagara-on-the-Lake, walking through the shops, going to the Shaw Festival, eating good food, and relaxing at River's Edge. You'll enjoy watching the sunrise from the panoramic bedroom windows, and the sunset down on the patio right by the water.
Thank you Anna and Donald for your gracious hospitality. We'll be back!

Monika’s cottage is right on the water, with a view of birds, sailboats, the Fort across the way, and even the lights of Toronto on a clear night. You wake up to this view and then enjoy it all day. The house is clean, well stocked, and comfortable. Very convenient to walk into town and skip the parking hassles. We loved our stay and hope to come back soon.
4.0 / 5.0
Very clean & well stocked . It was anazing watching the sun rise from our bed. Huge windows everywhere . The deck lake views superceeded our expectations . We enjoyed eating on the deck & watching the sunset instead of restaurants . Minor complaints: we needed more lights & a heater on the deck . We froze had to wear coats/ hats . We also would hsve liked a hot tub on deck. Pool was closed for winter . Upstairs although windows anazing views... We had little privacy issues walking out of bathroom. Would like curtain blocking windows from stairs/ bedrooms for little more privacy . But that would not stop me from recommending this house to anybody considering this town. Parking is expensive & an issue . From house we walked everywhere . Theatre / shopping/ restaurants/ hiking / bike trails along water. Absolurely perfect . Highly highly recommend this place . Even better than pics and exceeded our expectations . We definitely will consider returning again . No problens with anything .

4.0 / 5.0
We were there for four days in late October 2023, and had such great weather that we were able to sit outside on the deck and enjoy River’s Edge’s spectacular views of the Lake. Its amazing location right on the water and close to beautiful walking trails and everything is what makes this place uniquely wonderful.
However, we did find the house itself a bit quirky, with a beveled glass wall between the upstairs bathroom and master bedroom that meant using the bathroom at night flooded the bedroom with light. As well, the Murphy bed in the other bedroom was too hard to be useable. And as the two electric fireplaces cannot be turned off, the upstairs especially was stiflingly hot.
Moreover, the stairs and several aspects of this place make it very challenging for seniors. For these reasons we cannot give it a 5 star rating.
However, the Host, Anna, clearly does her very best to accommodate the needs of her guests.
And we think that River’s Edge is ideal for young couples and their children.
Certainly its location is wonderful for anybody.
And Niagara-on-the-Lake itself is a most wonderful and historic old town, which we greatly enjoyed visiting. We do intend to visit it again.

Absolutely gorgeous and relaxing! Loved all the glass and views of Niagara River, Lake Ontario and all the sailboats, kayaks, and longboards. Perfect location close to lovely shops and eateries and flowers everywhere.

Location was very good, but the house is very old fashion and also the pool. The terrace chairs table, parasol etc. are old and very uncomfertable. Radio not good, toilet not working well, doorlock not working, air blower from the stoof not working, showerholder a disaster etc. etc. Price and quality total absurt.$ 860,- per day for such a poor quality house is way to far overrated, half of the price is already to much!

The place and view were amazing. Our biggest concern was the offensive SMELL of fish in the house, and it never dissipated. We also needed more towels.

Amazing location at the mouth of the Niagara River as it empties into Lake Ontario with tremendous views to both. The stone deck sits right on the river's edge and the 2 story cottage was absolutely fabulous in all respects. The place was beautifully appointed, clean, spacious and quiet. We had a wonderful time and can't wait to go back.

Beautifully clean, architecturally amazing, and well-maintained property. Everything the listing said was true.
The house, scenery, and environment were even more beautiful than we expected. We are veteran NOTL visitors who had seen this house during our many walks through the town. We were thrilled to find it available for our 40th anniversary getaway.

The place is adorable and the view of the water is amazing!. There was a smell when we arrived, but we opened the doors to air it out. Close to shopping and restaurants, but far enough away that it's nice and quiet. Highly recommend this place.
5.0 / 5.0
We've stayed in NOTL numerous times in various rentals but this place was by far, the most charming. Located directly on the river it was scenic and serene. Watching the waves, the wildlife, and the boats streaming back and forth was wonderfully relaxing. The cottage itself offered splendid views with it's large windows and sliding doors that led to a spacious deck. Beautiful kitchen, excellent bedroom, comfortable seating and tastefully decorated. While close to downtown (5 minutes) it was secluded and quiet, away from the crowds. We'll be booking here again.

This property is as advertised if not even better! The location is superb, on the water, within walking distance to downtown and Shaw Festival. The house itself is quaint, very clean, and has everything one could think of wanting on a vacation. The owner is quick to respond to any email correspondence. We loved it and only wished we could have stayed longer!

The place is great! We stayed just for a couple of nights as a mini getaway to relax and this place with the views did the job. If you’re a birder, you will enjoy the water fowl that hang around the area.

My husband and I just returned from our 2 night honeymoon at this stunning property, and we are already planning to return for our 1 year anniversary. You can’t beat the location with its proximity to the main street shopping and restaurants in Niagara-On-The-Lake, and it’s beautiful views being right on the water. It has everything you will need and more for a getaway. Thank you!!

My wife and I celebrated our anniversary and we decided to stay at NOTL. The house was beautiful and the location ( on the water ) was even better. We had amazing views of the Niagara River and Lake Ontario, it was spectacular. I cannot remember the last time I was so relaxed. We are definitely coming back.

Perfect spot for enjoying NOTL theater, restaurants and hiking trails. Short walk to Shaw Festival theaters, downtown restaurants and easy hike to walking paths along Lake Ontario. Plus, benefit is gorgeous views across the lake to Toronto. Also located alongside park.
House itself is perfect for 2 people. Comfortable bed with soaking tub in room. Large shower with single sink in bathroom plus half bath on first floor. Very clean, full kitchen, small dining area. Nice deck with table and chairs. Would definitely stay again

This was our second time staying at this property and everything was fabulous once again. Can't say enough about the location right on the water. House is the perfect size for two people and it has everything you need. Enjoyed barbequing on the deck while watching all the boats. The owner, Anna, is very pleasant and efficient to deal with. Planning on returning again! Maybe will try a winter retreat as well!!

Paradise Close to Home
What can I say...it was lovely, relaxing and satisfied a very long overdue need for a vacation. It was very difficult to leave.
I would only say that all the planters were in sad shape...full blooms would have made it a more glowing welcome.
We would go again in a heartbeat!!!
