Leigh is the ultimate definition of a super host. His level of communication ahead of our stay and his attentiveness throughout our stay was unparalleled. His home is truly stunning and the pictures don't do the home justice. Leigh pretty much provides everything you and your family would need during your stay. The amenities are top notch. You are right in the heart of Lakeview, yet you have an immense amount of privacy and seclusion as the home situated off the street. We definitely enjoyed evenings in the courtyard relaxing in the shade of the trees! This space is truly unique and helps to make you feel like you are at home, yet on vacation.
As for the location, if you need public transport, you have two perfect options nearby (Belmont or Wellington). Restaurants, shops...everything is within a short walk. Since we were traveling around the north side of the city, the parking was a HUGE bonus so you can avoid tough and challenging street parking.
Bottom line: This place is a 5 star location with a 5 star host. We would come back in an instant!
