The historical ambiance of the Mansion made this one of my most incredible VRBO experiences. Eight of us came to Lewiston to play in a golf tournament and the property was perfect for us. We had lots of room to spread out, plenty of bedrooms, had a big kitchen to cook our meals in and comfy chairs to sit outside at night and rest from our day. The gardens were so pretty and it was nice to sit under the canopy of trees. The communication from the host was spot on, she answered all my queries and even called and texted to make sure we were okay. The message that she sent us with the historical information about the house made our stay that much more special. Thanks so much for sending us helpful information about the area and things to do! ##### Deb T.

The property was very clean and easy to find. The location is fantastic easy walking distance to the water or downtown, in addition to a playground for the kids directly on the other side of the property fence! The house offered enough space for our family, my parents as well as my brother and his family. There was only one problem, we wanted to use the piano. My husband plays and we were excited to see it in the pictures, however it was locked and unaccessible. We were able to entertain ourselves regardless but it was one of the reasons I booked the house. All in all, it turned out to be a perfect weekend. Sunshine each day and a trip to the falls and then Lewiston's Art Festival! Wonderful quiet town with plenty of dining and entertainment. I would recommend to anyone. ##### Sarah J.

It was so nice to just get up and do nothing for a couple of days while overlooking the Niagara Gorge. My family and I would definitely stay there again . Thank you for everything. ##### Regina O.

House address is not clearly marked, we had to look in the mailbox to be sure we were at the right place 2\. There wasn't a key or code left per the check in instructions sent by email to us 3 no contact information for property owner or manager....tenants next door gave us the contact number they had after they entered their room. No answer and voicemail was not set up for the number they gave us 4 after 3 attempts and 40+ minutes Vrbo finally gave us the code to enter the house Very stressful as we were 300 miles from home and it was very cold 5 The exterior of the house looked dirty and weathered, the inside was ok but definitely not Clean. The stove either hadn't been cleaned after last tenants or it is horribly stained to look filthy 7 The website stated there would be a charge for any damage we may do, there was so much damage throughout the house paint on the walls nicks in the woodwork, locks that didn't work and lights that flickered, cracked windows that were taped, broken bar chair, roof tarped off, spiral staircase rail was rickety and unsafe. it was really a disappointment we paid A LOT of money we sure expected better 👎👎👎 The website boasted of 3 fireplaces which is true however none were usable. Signed Not happy tenants ##### Sandy H. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kate d. 30 Oct 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Beautiful Historic Home! We had the most wonderful time staying at this historic 1800s home which has been beautifully renovated. The pictures on the website didn’t do it justice; inside was a lovely mix of original features and modern convenience. After being stuck in our home for months due to the COVID crisis, we were looking for a change of scenery and some space to spread out in, and this home didn’t disappoint. The patio is large and has a wonderful fire pit to sit at in the evenings. We love history, and this home has details pertaining to its role in the War of 1812\. It is within walking distance to many restaurants. We loved the 200 year old fireplace, the portraits throughout the house, the wood plank floors, and the old servants bells. Whoever does the cleaning for this house before our arrival did an impeccable job, especially for a house this size and age. One thing to be aware of - there is a separate carriage house that can be rented within the larger home. When we were in the kitchen, we could hear either other renters or property employees (not sure which) talking quite loudly. That aside, we loved our stay and would definitely love to return in the future! ##### Kate d.

We had a great weekend with friends and family. The house is conveniently located in walking distance to all shops and restaurants in town. There is a large gathering stone patio with fire pit on the property. The house is decorated beautifully. The history with the house is very interesting. Everyone who came to visit loved the property. We will be back! ##### Margaret D.

We would never consider staying there again. ##### robert w.

This spacious home and 4,000 sf stone patio were a perfect venue for our daughter’s wedding. We had all our children and grandchildren stay at the home with us. The home is walking distance to the town of Lewiston which is very quaint. It is also very close to the Niagara River which is a very scenic area. We enjoyed our stay. We could have all our meals outside on the patio and the grounds were very large so the children could play outside. There is also a playground located next to the property. ##### Laurie S.
