This is a common practice for professionally managed accommodations in Canada.

We also place a 500 CAD pre authorization security hold on the guest credit card 24 to 48 hours prior to check in. This is not a charge and no funds are withdrawn. The hold is automatically released within seven days after check out, provided there are no issues.

These measures help ensure a comfortable stay for everyone and allow us to maintain the quality of our riverside property.

Perfect Location

Cute property with the perfect location. The only improvement I could suggest is get rid of the cement blocks at the door entry. My guest twisted her ankle because they wobble under the mat. Well stocked and cute little place. Thanks so much!
