It is a perfect location and there’s something really calming and relaxing about the property despite being so close to everything. For such an old house it’s very well maintained and comfortable.

Lovely, quiet location

Our stay was wonderful. The house is about a 5 minute walk from all the amenities on Queen Street, but extremely quiet and tucked away.Would highly recommend both the house and the area. Looking forward to visiting again.

Loved it!

We loved everything about this house and the community. Spotlessly clean, beautifully decorated and furnished in 19th century antiques, just one block from Queen Street and 2 blocks from the waterfront and bike trail access. Wish we lived closer so we could return frequently!

We enjoyed our 5-night stay in the beautifully restored Alexander McKee House. The attention to historical detail is truly remarkable. If you close your eyes when the horse-drawn carriages go by, you could almost imagine yourself transported back to 1835. Highly recommend!

Location location location!

Sindy’s place was the perfect location to all the shops, parks, restaurants and water. We never had to use the car at all! The Alexander McKee house is a beautiful historical home that took us back in time. We had everything we needed to enjoy our time there. Stocked kitchen, comfortable beds and furnishings and a gorgeous porch and patio surrounded by lush plants and flowers. We can’t say enough good things about Sindy’s place and will definitely be back next year!
