The Rustic Cabin In the City was just as presented. We stayed for 2 months and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. The cabin is historic and charming and situated right on the Portage Inlet, with great views out of both levels. Had we not been there during the winter we would have spent times sitting on the decks overlooking the inlet. The cabin feels more spacious than expected because of the 2-level design and the ample storage space. We were a bit worried that it might be drafty but all of the windows are new and this was never an issue. While we could not get to know Mike as much as we would have liked due to Covid, he was a great host; suggesting a number of hikes and dog walks for us. Because we stayed for 2 months we needed a few extra kitchen items and Mike provided those right away. Lastly, the cabin is very well situated for exploring the area. I had a goal of running or walking our dog in most of the area parks during our stay. Several were walking distance (Gorge Waterway Park, Cuthbert Park, Portage Inlet Park) and others were a short drive (Mt Douglas, Thetis Lake, Elk Lake, Saxes Point, Wittys Lagoon). Downtown is also 15min and Dallas Road about a 20min drive. One last bonus was that the cabin has an outdoor hose for washing the dog off and a small fenced in area on the side and lower deck where our dog could dry off. We would definitely stay again.
