Great little weekend in the wild! We wanted to recharge campaign, we were delighted! The house and garden are beautiful. And very nice and friendly hosts! Thank you for your welcome ! See you soon

The Hidden Pearl: that housing that bears his name perfectly. This is a real hidden gem! First, the welcome is warm. Daniel and Johanne are very friendly and inspiring. The apartment is by far the best apartment we had on airbnb. Very spacious, very clean, very beautiful (especially inside the apartment outside). Housing is also more beautiful in reality than the pictures. In terms of meals, all cooking is done outside, with BBQ and outdoor hot plate. The outside is very quiet, serene and tastefully just beside a small private pond. There are serenity and comfort. Daniel had also prepared a fire outside for our arrival. The house is located about 1km drive from Highway 148, a mottled path, then about 7 minutes from the nearest hiking trail in Gatineau Park (Luskville Falls). We will be back without hesitation and highly recommend Hidden Pearl to anyone looking for serenity, comfort and inspiration! An address not to be missed.

Excellent location, place and hosts. The place was impeccable and the hosts were very helpful, respectful and nice! Highly recommended and can't wait to go back!

This was an amazing place I would most certainly go back !

Our hosts were there to greet us with a friendly welcome. They took the time to show us our accommodations. They answered our questions and explained if we had any questions how to contact them. They had a welcoming book that explained the normal questions you would have at typical accommodations. They had a barbeque for use and an out door fire stove. There was also a nice garden area to sit in to enjoy their property. The area is rural and very quiet. The river is less than a five minute walk.

This was our first air bnb experience and we feel they have set the bar very high for our next holiday. The pictures were very accurate and the hosts were amazing.

Very welcome. ..... very nice couple. idyllic place. .. Quiet with the birds and squirrels. Very comfortable. Thank you to Joanne and daniel

One of our best AIRB & B experience if not the best. Go there with confidence (and say hello to Daniel and Joanne from us :)).

The apartment appears newly renovated and is fitted with all new appliances. It is a comfortable space and has everything you'll need. For our stay the hosts thoughtfully stocked the fridge with items that any travellers would appreciate - like coffee, tea, bagels, home-made peanut butter, and more! We were pleasantly surprised to find that the lake and centre of the town (with the main shops, bars, and restaurants) was only a few minutes walk from the apartment. And yet the building is set in a serene neighborhood far away from any noise or disturbance.

Amber is a wonderful host. My family enjoyed every minute we spent at Wakefield.

A home away from home, this place was modern and very well kept. A beautiful little slice of heaven in a town that should b in the movies! We took one day to just wander around Wakefield since there are so many cute stores and beautiful scenic spots ☺ we will be back!!!

Great place, great location, well equipped. I would definitely go back!

Superbe logement. Belles attentions des hôtes pour leurs invités! Impeccable et emplacement magnifique. A refaire

Excellent séjour chez Amber. L'appartement est magnifique et bien équipé. Nous le recommandons sans hésiter !

Our first experience with Airbnb was extremely positive. We appreciated that Sharon communicated with us prior our arrival and informed us she was available at any time. We loved the guest suite. It had everything we needed and more. A lot more personal than a motel. We enjoyed the convenience of being walking distance to everything. We thoroughly enjoyed Monkey Junk at the Black sheep. We made new friends there and will continue to keep in touch. This is our third visit to Wakefield. People are very friendly, restaurants are good and we enjoyed walking through the outdoor bazaar. We will definitely return to Sharon's guest suite on our next visit.

Sharon was a great host. Their place is in a great location across from the general store. Everything is close in Wakefield and all the restaurants and shops in towns are within walking distance. Wakefield is a great place to stay.

Sharron was great to accomodate us very last minute! Thank you! My girlfriends who actually ended up staying had a lovely time. It was exactly what we were looking for. I had to go home to my sick children. The place was clean beds were comfy and it was conveniently located. Thumbs up!

Went to Wakefield for a show at the Black Sheep Inn and had a wonderful wintery evening. The location of the 'Chamberlain Suite' was perfect- right next to the bakery (try the sausage rolls!) and within walking distance to anywhere you'd want to go in Wakefield. Sharon was communicative and the apartment was cozy.

My boyfriend and I stayed in Sharon's Suite for one night and it was a wonderful experience. We were greeted outside by her friendly cat and had a lovely letter welcoming us to Wakefield. The space had everything we needed to enjoy our time and we would happily stay there again. Sharon was very communicative during the planning stages and was very friendly and welcoming when we met her in the afternoon; an ideal host.

Great little spot here in Wakefield. Excellent location, cozy and quaint with lots of privacy. We've stayed before and will again!!! Thank you Sharon.

Great location in the town. Walk everywhere. Sharon was helpful and has a very comfortable place.

Charming, clean, comfortable, private and amazing location, walking distance to everything. Sharon is a great host!

Jess met us as soon as we got to Wakefield and gave us the lay of the land. The apartment is exactly what you need for a weekend stay and is within walking distance of all the shops and restaurants as well as hiking trails. The apartment had everything we required and was very comfortable. We would definitely recommend this to anyone looking to enjoy this spectacular town!

great place to stay for a big group and the location too is nice. Very close to grocery store and restaurants. The service was great and Lindsay (hope I spelled it right) who took care of us during our stay was nice and friendly. We had to add few more people with us and they accommodate it by adding more beds for us to make sure everyone will be comfortable during the stay. We really had a great time during the stay and I highly recommend it.=)

Notre petite famille a passé une agréable semaine au Holiday Stay. Wakefield est un village vraiment charmant et le logement est très bien situé, à deux pas de tout: cafés, restos, boulangerie, boutiques, etc. C'est un excellent pied-à-terre pour découvrir la région de la Gatineau et celle de la capitale nationale. Le logement, spacieux et bien aménagé, est un repaire apprécié après une journée de randonnée ou à la plage.

It is nice place for friends out. But it is a little bit small for 5 persons and other things are good!

We loved and enjoyed our stay very much. We had a warm welcome and introduction from Maria after arriving late at around23:00, and a big goodbye and blessing from Jim the second day morning. The house is beautiful and outside the garden and view just stoning. The bathroom is large and quality toiletries and tea and coffee items are warmly provided. We feel very homy. If you are looking for a countryside house and escape away from the City, here is the one. Love the emphasis from Maria, that the most important is stay comfortable. We wish we could stay longer! Shall definitely stay again!

This is a beautiful apartment in a nice, quiet area. There's a nice, large bathroom, fully equipped kitchen, and a comfortable bed. The hosts were kind enough to have a spare mattress for our son fitted and ready to use when we got there. Definitely recommended!

An oasis of peace near Ottawa! A place that I highly recommend. :) The apartment is spacious for two, very clean and quiet. We got to meet Maria, but Jim was there and was concerned about our well-being by explaining clearly what we needed. Jim thank you !! Sincerely, Claudine and Johanne

Had a great stay here! The apartment is very comfortable, quiet and had everything we needed. We only stayed for a couple nights but it would have been perfect for a longer stay with the fully equipped kitchen. There was a short and scenic drive into Almonte (no more than 10 minutes) and a reasonable 20 minute drive to Kanata. We will hopefully staying again in the future!

Jim has been an absolutely great host. He was extremely quick in responding to my emails and welcomed us with a detailed tour of the apartment. He was happy to help with an extra mattress, and even checked in half way through to make sure we were good, sharing extra blankets and making sure we were comfortable. The apartment is beautiful and full of natural light, and very comfortable, modern and clean. The 3 of us were very comfortable and happy. I highly recommend this place and will definitely stay there again if I return to Ottawa. Thank you!

Home away from home. Our stay(couple plus 18 month old ) was very pleasant and enjoyable.This place is about 30 mins from Ottawa downtown in a quite neighborhood, tastefully decorated and just the right size for three of us. Maria and Jim were perfect host-very courteous and supportive. They provided high chair, toys, bath towels for our son and a crib. This was above and beyond. They were also very helpful to accommodate our friends (another couple + 2 yr old) who stayed overnight with us. We had extra mattress and towels. They were better than a typical host recommending great place to eat in Ottawa and helping with car problems (due to extreme cold weather). I would recommend this place to friends and family and will go back again if I happen to visit ottawa.

Although we didn't have the opportunity to meet Maria and jim, we had a very lovely stay. The apartment was clean and set up beautifully with everything we needed.

One word... Perfect. A hidden gem in the hills, looking down on the town of Wakefield. Paradise just 30 minutes from downtown Ottawa. David was an amazing host. Very easy going and quick to answer any questions. When there were deer around the cottage, he alerted us so we could take in nature to it's fullest. We will 100% make a return visit to this exquisite treetop studio. Thanks again David

The pictures can't capture the view - excellent hosting all round.

Great scenic location. David was incredibly accommodating and helpful. A really lovely experience.

We had a wonderful time at David's stunning home! The location is amazing, the studio apartment is beautiful, and David is a kind and generous host who really went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. Not to mention the state of the art home theatre set-up, cozy bathrobes, local deer families who come to visit, and incomparable views!

Quiet and secluded with stunning views.

David's place is truly beautiful, a treetop hideaway overlooking the Gatineau River. Highly recommended!

What a great experience! David was amazing, really attentioned. We would definitely go back! The place is even better than on the photos : a big open space with everything you need for a moment of peace! Thank you again, David!

David's place was wonderfully situated in a beatiful location. The projector was great for watching movies and David was very accomodating to all our needs

Lovely space in a beautiful location. Close to the Black Sheep Inn for great entertainment, and perfect for winter activities. Will book again!

Cute spot! Very clean. Prompt responses by host. Very accommodating! Thank you

The stay was very pleasant, the boat available was a nice feature. We were able to easily enter the Gatineau Park at the height of Meech Lake. Rita our host is charming and very comely.

It was great to meet Rita on our recent visit to Chelsea. We spent five days in the area and the apartment was perfectly suited to our needs. Rita (& her friend Yvon) were extremely helpful - offering suggestions about upcoming activities in the area, including places to eat and enjoy the local entertainment. Also, advice on hiking trails that started right from the backyard! Awesome place, lovely hospitable host.

Such a beautiful spot for a quiet weekend away. The apartment is small but contains everything you should need. And when there wasn't something there that we needed Rita was excellent about providing it. Our favourite spots were breakfast on the front deck overlooking the river and night time fires on the dock. We hope to return again next year.

Rita literally is a superhost. We felt at home from the very first moment. Although Rita was not there upon our arrival, she gave perfect instructions how to enter the apartment. When she came home from work she was very welcoming and kind. The apartment has more than you can ask for. It is not only perfectly equipped and thought through, it is also arranged and decorated lovingly. Rita gave us good advice on where to go hiking and even borrowed us a map with all the hiking trails in Gatineau Park. The apartment is in a perfect location directly at the Gatineau River, with only a very short drive to the entrance to hiking trails. And after a long day enjoying the outdoors, the apartment invites you to spend a cozy evening at home just relaxing or watching DVDs (there's an old briefcase with a nice collection of movies). I would definitely recommend staying at Rita's place!

Rita was a great host, she welcomed us when we arrived and ensured we had everything we needed. The basement was clean and spacious and had everything we needed for our stay. The location is great for a relaxing weekend or a picturesque home-base for hiking, rafting, and visiting Ottawa.

We liked the housing, it is so nice as in the photos. It is an ideal place to rest and enjoy the lake. Rita is nice. We recommend it El alojamiento es muy bonito sobre todo por el entorno que tiene, el lago y el muelle son geniales. Rita es simpática y habla muy bien español.

Relaxed host, which is great. Listing is exactly as described.

Clean and cozy but not as quiet as we had hoped from the neighbors above.

Great place to stay and visit Wakefield!

Nice chalet, well located and clean.

Nice and close to Wakefield and very quiet. Clean, roomy and a generous policy for kitchen sundries. A great, all too quick, stay.

Great host with lots of local knowledge! Larger than I was expecting, we had plenty of room for a weekend with four guests and a dog. Location is just out of the way but close to everything. Thanks a million to a perfect host!

Very nice place. Owner was very accessible and responded quickly when we needed him. I really recommand that place.

The apartment is nestled in the mountains and close enough to enjoy walks into the village. We loved making a wood fire on the chilly february nights. And the neighbour had such a friendly dog with whom we played catch.

Alice was a wonderful host. Amazing hospitality. My uancé and I were late for check in due to Ottawa traffic and she was very patient and still understanding. Same went with check out. We felt so horrible about being late but she was so sweet and kind to us. It was a little chilly in the suite but she went above and beyond to make sure we got everything we needed. She also checked in with us on our second day there which I thought was very nice as I was afraid to ask for anything. Very wonderul woman and family and host. Would love to stay there again in her beautiful suite. *Her healthy snacks upon arrival were great too!*

Alice was a great host. Communicative, she offered some treats that i really appreciated. The neighborhood is calm, close to the Ottawa's IT hub, close to groceries stores, a forest to walk, and restaurants (both fast food and specialty) I will repeat if i can.

This is a perfect spot to get away from the city or just to relax

House with a nice spirit. Very calm. Nice touch: environmental products offered.

I had a wonderful Easter week end at Maïlin's place. The bed is very comfortable and it is wonderfully quiet, making it perfect to recharge. Gatineau Park is just around the corner for great hikes, and the village of Wakefield is very close as well. I will certainly be back for a week end away surrounded by trees.

Beautiful location, close to the Nordik Spa, Wakefield, Chelsea, Ottawa and a very comfortable and serene place to stay. Mailin is an excellent host.

Great place, very private and exceptionally clean. Everything was as described but it's good to note that there is no microwave (we brought mostly microwaveable food). Also, the bedroom was rather cold. Overall, fantastic way to go somewhere secluded that's also not too far from town, and Mailin was a super responsive hostess.

Mailin was a fantastic host and the apartment was beautiful! If you are a couple looking for a place to stay in the area you can't do better.

Top marks for Mailin's place. Conveniently located close to Gatineau Park, Wakefield and Chelsea, this is an ideal spot for a skiing or snowshoe trip into the park. The place was spotless, comfortable and very tastefully decorated. Highly recommended.

Lovely old house next to the river and inside beautifully renovated and decorated! Maïlin was always around for a talk or some advice. Loved staying here, hopefully we'll be back!

Lovely location, Exceptional host. We were made so welcome and felt we had known Denyse for a long time. We highly recommend this unique, comfortable space. My only regret is we had to leave, we felt so welcome we could have stayed for a long time.

Stayed when attending a wedding nearby. Beautiful apartment exactly as described and as it appears in the pictures. Denyse is a great host!

Denyse was a wonderful host. She is friendly and outgoing and provided information on the area. We travelled to the area for 2 days, to attend the Calabogie Blues fest, which is only a 10 minute drive from Le bijou. We arrived to fresh flowers and a hand written welcome and a birthday card and wine for me. The apartment is large, clean, cozy and beautifully decorated and equipped. There is a keurig and she provided a variety of pods and tea bags. It is exactly as it appears on the website and exceeded our expectations. I certainly would stay at this peaceful hideaway again.

We were thrilled with this our first Airbnb experience. Denyse made us feel very welcomed and comfortable. The apartment was everything we expected and more; warm, inviting, spotlessly clean and wonderfully decorated! Denyse kindly welcomed us with a basket of fruit, cookies and a chilled bottle of wine which was much appreciated after travelling. As this was our first time in the area she thoughtfully provided brochures and maps highlighting points of interest and things to do and see in the area. Our visit was carefree and relaxing. Denyse is definitely the hostess with the mostest and we look forward to another visit in the future. Thank you Denyse.

Our host was wonderful. It was our anniversary and it was made extra special by staying here. The apartment was well appointed with everything we needed. The apartment is a short walking distance to the Bittersweet Gallery, Blackbird Cafe and Neat Coffee House. The apartment was bright and spacious. It's a short drive to so many pleasant towns and beaches.

Denyse was a kind and gracious host. The apartment was one of the nicest, cleanest places I've stayed. Great value! Thank you!

We had a wonderful time at Le Bijou. Very clean, comfortable, and welcoming. Had everything we needed. Denyse was very accommodating and helpful but also respected privacy. A few excellent coffee shops in the area as well as a very nice beach along the river.

We had a great stay at le bijou! As we drove up we observed the home was very attractive outside - well manicured and nicely landscaped with flowers along the walkway. Our hostess Denyse greeted us and showed us around our accommodations. We were pleasantly surprised to see she had provided us with fresh fruit, snacks and refreshments to welcome us to her lovely home. The place was spotless, tastefully furnished and decorated with an assortment of interesting artwork. It was fully equipped with anything one might need when away from home, even bathrobes! It had games, books, videos, a full size washer and dryer, a Keurig coffee maker, a convection oven, and a microwave. What made our stay even better was Denyse’s hospitality. Le bijou truly is a jewel and we highly recommend staying there. Thank you, Denyse!

Heidi was very friendly and helped us a lot giving really nice advises about the area and things to do. The house is clean and comfortable, we felt like home.. not too far from ottawa. Strong recommend to stay there. Tks Heidi :-)

Heidi makes you feel at home right away. She's a wealth of knowledge in regards to the Chelsea area as well as the Gatineau Park and a great hostess to boot! Great value!

Heidi was very friendly and helpful. She gave us lots of info and maps etc. we immediately felt welcome and reassured that we would enjoy our stay. The apartment was clean and well equipped and pleasantly roomy. We were left to do our own thing which we prefer although it was easy to co tact Heidi to borrow bikes one evening. The location is very close to Ottowa although a car is essential locally. There are many outdoor things to do in the area.

Staying at Heidi's in Chelsea was the best decision we could have made. An awesome location for outdoors enthusiasts and cocooning types alike. The apartment was very comfortable; we had everything we needed, including peace and quiet, and a great view! Being located within an easy driving distance from the city made it very practical, but best of all, it was within walking distance from some amazing hiking trails. I don't mean trails that are full of tourists, I mean footpaths in the woods where you need maps with Heidi's hand drawn routes or footprints left in the snow by a lone hiker and his dog. The region also has great restaurants, coffee shops and bakeries, art galleries, and music venues. But, honestly, the best part of our stay was meeting Heidi and her family. They not only gave us the privacy we needed, they were also very welcoming, available, generous and knowledgeable whenever we asked for advice and/or recommendations. An absolutely delightful family!

Thank you Heidi for another fantastic stay. Heidi has excellent communication and does everything to make her guests comfortable. Her accommodation is always clean and has all the necessities needed for an enjoyable stay. I look forward to the next time I can visit Heidi's retreat again.

Everything that we wanted to achieve and more was enhanced by this stay. Location was exactly what was hoped and expected and privacy was very much appreciated. Starter pack for the various walks was very helpful. Everyone we met, talked to and interacted with in any way and for whatever reason was enjoyable and welcoming. Love the Chelsea/Wakefield/Gatineau area, love Ottawa and, of course, love Canada! Thank you to Heidi and her family for the wonderful stay in their Air BnB.

We had a lovely stay at Heidi's! Although she was not there upon our arrival, her husband Mike welcomed us in. The house was in charming Old Chelsea in a very quiet, peaceful neighbourhood. The apartment was as pictured and we were very comfortable. Heidi's instruction sheets and the maps she provided were very helpful during our stay. The house was equipped with everything we needed for a perfect weekend stay! We can't wait to go back! Thank you Heidi!

Amazing secluded getaway with lots to do or nothing to do, depending on what your goal is! Heidi is a fantastic host who made sure everything was at arms reach and was ready with plenty of recommendations and suggestions for things to do and see. All around a relaxing but fun vacation!

Very nice and clean place. Robert was very friendly and helpful. Recommended

Honestly, Robert is one of the nicest and most amiable people you will ever meet. We booked this place a bit last minute and we nicely surprised by how superb everything was. His place was cozy and a great value, very clean and all the necessities provided. Gatineau is a bit far from central Ottawa if you don't have a car, so keep that in mind if you decide to stay here (which you absolutely should, Robert is a great host).

Robert was a great host, we didn't get to meet him because we had a busy schedule but the accommodations were great and the food was nice. Everything we needed was there. Bus stations were close and easy to navigate through bus.

Stay simple and pleasant. Location in accordance with description, clean and easy to access. Hosts courteous, friendly and respectful. Do not hesitate!

Clean and new place at a 20 mins drive from downtown Ottawa.

Robert was extremely friendly and hospitable, his located in a quite naigbour hood, the basement is really spacious, clean, cozy and as mentioned in the distribution. Definitely whenever I'm going to Ottawa again, this is my first place to look for.

We were very happy we chose to stay at Roberts. He was very accommodating with whatever we needed. We will probably stay here in the future.

I recommend this place! It was clean and spacious. Robert was really easy to communicate with and it was really easy to check in. He also help us with our trip (where to go, where to park, what to visit in Ottawa ). Thanks again Robert

Excellent place and good price! I can only recommend it! I would love to stay again.

Very nice and well taken of place. Great location

Perfect place for a comfortable stay

The host canceled this reservation 6 days before arrival. This is an automated posting.

Tres beau appartement .propre avec gout et style.tres calme et La plage est a deux pas . Tres bien équipé et Martine est tres gentille . Merci

Excellent, we could not have found a better place to stay for our 12 days awaiting our move into our new home. Johanne and Guy's place was priced amazing it was very homey, bright with many windows which gave light and alway provided a breeze through the house. Everything we needed to feel like home and be operational for cooking, bathing etc. was easily found. I really liked the kettle choo...chooo...lol So close to both the Marina and downtown Aylmer we walked a lot. My son loved the loft and the terrace was so nice...didn't spend enough time there. We wouldn't hesitate to stay here again and again! Chris and Suzanne.

Johanne is an excellent host, always prompt and gracious in responding to my questions. When planning our family visit Ottawa we stumbled upon this lovely gem. All the central sites in Ottawa were within 15-20 min drive. We would pack a lunch and go to Ottawa for the day. Sometimes eating out for supper sometimes coming back to cook. Grocery stores and shopping were a 10 minute drive away. We absolutely enjoyed our stay. There is much to do even if you choose to stay in the area. The marina and river near by is lovely, the little town is also very quaint and inviting.

The property was clean beautifully decorated well am mended very comfy roomy deck was wonderful had a great time

You will love the place and the area, trendy restaurants..beach. the host is great so as the (URL HIDDEN) a bit far from Ottawa but other than (URL HIDDEN) perfect weather you are a coupe or family with kids

Johanne's condo is absolutely gorgeous! It's very spacious, beautifully decorated with high end furniture and decor, and absolutely spotless. Everything you could need is here for you. Located near the park and beach, a corner store and the Aylmer marina. Cafes and restaurants are also close by. It's very quiet, we never saw or heard from the downstairs neighbor during our 8 day stay. The host Johanne and co-host Manon were fabulous! Very easy to deal with, alway quick to reply and very accommodating. I couldn't ask for a better host. This was our first airbnb experience, and it was flawless. If I return to the area, I will definitely book this condo again.

Spectacular views and location .Close to many Alymer Gatineau highlights as well as downtown Ottawa.Great restaurants and local markets all within walking distance. The hosts (Manon) (Johanne) were very helpful and responsive .We would highly recommend this location for easy commute to Ottawa and for taking in the sights of local Alymer Gatineau. We will return for sure.

We loved everything about Johanne's condo. It's clean, comfortable and well stocked with everything we could need. It's located in a beautiful area close to the park, beach, marina and a corner store. Johanne and co-host Manon were wonderful to deal with. They were always available and very accommodating. I couldn't have asked for a better host. We loved our 8 days in Aylmer. We'd love to come back some time and would definitely stay here again.

Super appartement, tout y est! En plus, c'est près d'une plage et d'un beau parc. Moins de 20 minutes d'Ottawa. Nous le recommandons fortement!

Clean, comfortable with beautiful decor. Minutes from shops and great restaurants. Communication with Vicki was super easy!! We will defiantly book again next time we come through town!

Myself and my Fiance wanted to have a place close to our wedding venue for three days before the actual wedding. When I messaged Vicki she was extremely quick to respond and very lenient on allowing us to check in a bit early due to some timing issues on our part. Check in was very easy, and the place was absolutely gorgeous! every detail was not skipped, from the perfect decor to the spaciousness of the loft. The bed was extremely comfortable and the shower/bathroom was very clean and spacious. Love this place and cannot wait to return again!

Vicky was great! The listing was accurate, clean, right in the heart of the town, overall the apartment was amazing! And Vicky super nice and accommodating. Highly recommended.

Vickis place was stunning! She was very accommodating to our late arrival and a laid back host. We held a bridal party lunch during our stay there as we were in town for a friends wedding... it was perfect! Felt as if we were in a magazine shoot for the photos of the bride getting ready. Would deffinately stay again. Almonte is such a quaint town ! Thanks Vicki!

Vicki's place is absolutely stunning! The decor made the flat feel cozy,warm and welcoming. All her recommendations were fabulous! We didn't want to leave, we enjoyed our stay so much.

Vicki's place is just like the photos, absolutely picture perfect and fully equipped. She was so welcoming and kind to meet us and show us around. She was quick to respond to texts. We were there for a ladies Trip and found that Almonte was a perfect place to get away, loved the shops on all Mill street and our pampering at Black & Blush. We would definitely come back and stay here again. Thank you Vicki!

An amazing host and a beautiful home! Vicki was so welcoming and helpful through the hole stay, booking to checkout. The home was beyond perfect, and made my birthday weekend away so relaxing and enjoyable. I would without a doubt recommend booking with Vicki!

What a gorgeous space! We stayed in Almonte for a little getaway weekend and Vicki was a wonderful host, making sure we felt at home. The neighbourhood is adorable with lots of shops. The location was perfect -- just down the street from one of the best restaurants we've ever been to (The Heirloom Cafe) and a quick ride to some great biking/hiking trails. Would definitely do it all again!

The rental is private with its own entrance and parking. The view of the forest and river is beautiful. The space was clean, modern, and included many comfortable amenities. The hosts were very friendly and accommodating.

Lorraine and Yvan have created a peaceful Gatineau hideout that we heartily recommend to anyone looking to get away from the city. They are friendly and gracious hosts, and their space is comfortable and well-equipped. The backyard chairs facing the Gatineau River are the perfect place to contemplate life (or, uh, to fall asleep. Guilty). It's a short drive to Old Chelsea and to Wakefield. It's a special treat to open the bedroom curtains and see nothing but trees and water. Thank you, Lorraine and Yvan, for giving us an ideal getaway spot!

Great getaway!

Absolutely amazing place to stay! This a place you can sit and relax at!

This was exceptional to stay at Yvan and Lorraine's beautiful retreat. After spending the day at the spa we arrived at there place and promptly greeted by them and also there welcoming committee, there chickens. Le retreat has everything and more. The view was spectacular and so close to all that Chelsea has to offer. We would like to thank Yvan and Lorraine for a relaxing stay, and we will be back soon. Carol and Mauro

We lead busy lives so once a year for our birthday, my twin sister and I book a weekend at a place so we can reconnect and talk. We had a wonderful time at Lorraine and Yvan's in their beautiful house in a gorgeous and peaceful location. Our hosts were thoughtful, fun and friendly. They even have chickens and turkeys and gave us fresh eggs upon our arrival. We enjoyed being like children and feeding the chickens and turkeys our salad leftovers. The view is beautiful and relaxing and we had a lovely campfire in the evenings. Their house is a 2-minute drive from Chelsea so we could go there to shop, if we wanted - but we really didn't feel the need to get out much because the place was so lovely. Thank you for a wonderful stay, Lorraine and Yvan! Cathy and Jamie.

We had a very relaxing stay at Yvan and Lorraine's beautiful home. Very peaceful and scenic location in the countryside, yet only a 15-minute drive to central Ottawa-Gatineau. Five minutes from restaurants, cafes, pubs, groceries in Chelsea and Old Chelsea. On the doorstep of beautiful Parc Gatineau. The apartment is very comfortable, well-equipped and spotlessly clean. Yvan and Lorraine were extremely warm, responsive and welcoming hosts. Great value. We highly recommend a stay here!

If you're looking for a quiet secluded place to stay this is it. Amenities were perfect, host was kind and welcoming. I definitely recommend this Airbnb
