It was like being at home. Jim & Linda were easy to get a hold of if needed and very accommodating. The house is equipped with everything a family could ask for, has a very relaxing feel, is great for entertaining and has a top notch hot tub to boot. We would recommend this rental without hesitation. ##### Scott B. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Nicole C. 19 Jan 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Excellent getaway! My family (me, husband, 2 kids, dog) stayed here during a trip to Toronto. The house was clean, so avoid, and met all our needs. The fenced in back yard was Pete the first our dog, and we enjoyed the hot tub even while it was snowing! The house is very near to walking trails along the water, of which we took advantage. If dining in, it’s easy to cook it get take out. The short drive into the city for attractions (20-25 minutes) was no problem and worth it to have the space of the house and yard. The owner was quick to respond when needed. We recommend the house and would stay again if in the area. ##### Nicole C. Stayed 5 nights in Jan 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### David P. 17 Apr 2019 #### Great family holiday home This home was very well appointed, 20 mins drive from downtown and easy access to the road network. Home was stunning, we had an active holiday but we spent a few days of our break just enjoying the house and everything in it. There are bikes in the garage that we were able to cycle down to the woods and parks. Lake view out of some windows and close enough to supermarkets to go food shopping. Jim, the host, was very helpful and quick to respond to even my most trivial enquiries. Kids enjoyed the hot tub and hanging out in the basement. The master bedroom was more like a suite - large and spacious. We are already discussing our next trip back and staying at this lovely home. Thank you Jim for allowing us to stay in this incredible accommodation. ##### David P.

It’s a beautiful home with a wonderful backyard and accommodated all of us comfortably. Jim was a very responsive host who made sure the stay was worry-free. Overall, I highly recommend this place for families and for longer stays. ##### Jonathan P. Stayed 47 nights in Jul 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Shayne F. 29 Jun 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Nice time at Birch Cliff home My family and I stayed here for 5 weeks while I was working in Toronto. When we arrived we were quarantined for 2 weeks, and the house provided ample space and a huge backyard. My almost two year old loved the swing set and large deck space as well as green grass he could play soccer in. Completely fenced in and lots of privacy. The bottom floor of the house also had toys and an extra refrigerator and we could watch Disney+ on the big flat screen. The main floor of the house had a huge open floor plan. The kitchen had all of the amenities we needed and we could cook and BBQ on the deck. Plenty of indoor and outdoor eating spaces. The washer and dryer and laundry room was perfect as well. The upstairs had four bedrooms and two bathrooms. We were able to utilize one as my office and it came with a desk and chair. The master bedroom is very large and also had a flat screen TV. We really enjoyed our time here as a family. Once we were out of quarantine, we were just a very short drive to the beaches neighborhood, which is very walkable and has a large park for my son. Great coffee shops and ice cream parlors. We went often. The house is also walkable to a very large park overlooking the lake. The house doesn’t have a view really, as it’s behind a row of houses that line the lake, but occasional glimpses and a short walk provides better views. We definitely recommend the home.I would confirm if the hot tub was fully working. It didn’t heat up on its own, so we filled it with hot water a couple of times. And the upstairs jacuzzi tub worked except for the shower nozzle. The dishwasher is finicky, but ultimately worked the whole time. Definitely just pandemic nuisances that will probably resolve when handymen can enter homes comfortably again. ##### Shayne F.

Fabulous for a gathering of up to 10 people. Jim came to our rescue on the eve of our travel when a property we had booked in November was canceled. Within minutes of booking Fallingbrook, we had a contract delivered and signed. The house is spacious and we loved the huge island in the kitchen, as well as the large adjacent dining room, with tables to seat 14. We felt comfortable and welcomed. ##### Elaine E.

We were in Toronto for my son's wedding and not a holiday so my comments speak to the practical aspects of the home, though I am sure if visiting in the summer months it would only be that much better. The owners were extremely responsive in all respects and I likely had more questions than the average renter. The backyard looks like it would be a little wonderland in the summer time and it felt like a little retreat into nature back there! The home is comfortable and well-loved. We had all the space we needed for visiting family. We had some issues with one of the kitchen sinks and using the dishwasher but with the help of the owner found a way to manage. I would imagine this would be sorted out for future renters. This is a great home for large families or groups. ##### Angela F.

Only disappointment was despite a few tries and further instructions from Jim we could not get the hot tub to heat up. ##### Rebekah S.

There is plenty of space for people to sit at the dining room table. The kitchen is nicely updated, although a conversion chart on Celsius to Fahrenheit would be nice for the oven. Also, a quick start guide for the oven would be nice (you have to turn on the timer for the oven to begin heating). Otherwise, we greatly enjoyed our stay, and communication with Jim was easy and quick. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 5 nights in Oct 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Karin K. 10 Oct 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Familienurlaub in Toronto Das Haus ist genau so wie in der Beschreibung erklärt.

Stayed 8 nights in Jul 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Michael C. 10 Sept 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Absolutely Loved It! The owner was very responsive and communicative. He visited the property and though I was out at the time he met with the family to check in our stay the first to ever do so in the years my family and I have rented through VRBO. Two slight, very minor, drawbacks are the internet service was a bit spotty and only two televisions on the property. If I could give the home and neighborhood six(6) stars I would, loved it! I highly recommend this property. ##### Michael C.

Jim’s home was very nice. There were only 6 of us , so there was way more than enough room. All the beds were comfortable. The kitchen had everything necessary to prepare meals. The girls loved the hot tub. The description said downtown was about 20 minutes away with the horrible traffic it always took us at least 35 minutes but there was a lot of construction. The only thing we were not happy with was the internet , it was extremely slow. Everything else was awesome! We had a lot of fun riding the bikes in the neighborhood, that was very nice to offer the guests use of the bikes . ##### margaret g.

As soon as we entered the house we were all in awe! It is beautiful, spacious and well kept. We loved the main lounge/kitchen area as this is where we spent most of our times just hanging out and enjoying the views into the garden. All rooms are spacious and comfortable, - it really felt like a home away from home! We used the provided bikes to go cycling around the neighbourhood - one of the highlights of our stay as the area is beautiful. We also thoroughly enjoyed relaxing in the hot tub as well as hosting a game night in the bar area downstairs. Jim and Linda were very attentive and answered any questions we had promptly! Honestly, if you are thinking of booking this property then do it - you won't be disappointed. ##### Jordan D. Stayed 7 nights in May 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Susan B. 1 Jun 2019 #### Stunning Reunion Place for the Immediate Family As an American who did four years’ grad work at University of Toronto, Toronto’s my favorite city in N. America. And Scarborough Bluffs is one of my favorite places in Toronto. So I was delighted when my wife, Susan, suggested this lovely home on Springbank for celebrating my 75th bday. It exceeded expectations. Spacious, gracious, and full of light, with a front porch and back patio that feed long conversations, a kitchen for serious cooks like our family, and a huge dining room that easily accommodates over 12. Plenty of easy parking in the driveway. And Jim, the owner, was attentive and friendly without being obtrusive. We’d definitely come back. ##### Susan B.

Stayed 6 nights in Apr 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Carol W. 2 May 2019 #### Stunning home, beautiful location We came for a family wedding and reunion, traveling together with our children and grandchildren. Every need that we had was met including furniture for the baby and toys for the little ones. Jim was a very attentive host and we can't thank him enough for the use of his beautiful home. We look forward to staying here again should we be traveling with a group again! ##### Carol W.

Wenn man fragen hatte Stand er mit Rat und Tat zu Seite. Alles im allem ein schönes Haus. Würdes es wieder buchen! ##### Thomas C. Stayed 7 nights in Mar 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Kim E., Flower Mound 31 Dec 2018 #### Great location and lots of room We loved our stay in this lovely peaceful home! The house has such charm, from the front and back porches to the lovely landscaped backyard. The location is very convenient and the kitchen is well stocked and easy to navigate, large enough for a few people to help out with the cooking. Jim was incredibly responsive to any questions I had. A lovely property. ##### Kim E. Stayed 5 nights in Dec 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Rev Edith W. 24 Nov 2018 #### Very spacious! We loved the hot tub! Would go again. Thank you Jim We arrived on Halloween. There was Canadian candy on the dining room table for us! There was seven of us staying there while we attended an international conference. The beds were comfortable with ample amount of pillows. Kitchen was gorgeous. We absolutely loved this home away from home. ##### Rev Edith W.
