I booked the Linden house for the night before my wedding and the night of, sharing a room with my Maid of Honor the night before (she slept on the pull out bed) and staying with my Husband on our wedding night. My Husband's brother and sister in law stayed both nights in the second room and enjoyed it greatly. I booked the house because I wanted somewhere beautiful to take the "getting ready" pictures on the day of the wedding and boy, the Linden House did NOT disappoint!! It is such a stunning space, spacious, full of light and personality. But I think what drew me to it the most were it's gorgeous architectural features among which are stone fireplaces, gothic arched bookshelves, exquisite chandeliers, and a claw foot bathtub in a bathroom to die for! Needless to say, we got some stunning photos in the space and I couldn't be happier!

Kris and Leana were so friendly and accommodating, keeping in touch with me over the months leading up to our trip date and they went above and beyond to make sure I had what I needed. When the lock box jammed the night before the wedding Leana came over in her pajamas (I had woken her up on a work night) and gave us a new set, promising it would be fixed by the next day; and it was!

In terms of what can be found in the surrounding area, there is a Shoppers Drug Mart directly across the street from the house which is perfect for running across to and grabbing any last minute essentials! There is also an EggSmart, a Tim Hortons, and a few variety stores all within a block. Not to mention the TTC station is right at Bloor! The only slight downside to this incredible property is the neighborhood it is located in. The Bloor and Sherbourne area tends to be populated by some of the city's less fortunate and as it was, some poor individual (possibly inebriated/mentally challenged) was outside on the street screaming bloody murder until 1am or later. Luckily I brought my earplugs.

All in all we had a lovely stay in the house, it was the perfect place to get ready for my wedding and I only wish I could have stayed longer to fully enjoy the property!

Thanks so much Kris and Leana
