Family-friendly vacation rentals in Waterloo

We had a fabulous stay at Tanya's! It was comfortable, it was clean, it was very serviceable for our group. Tanya was very responsive to any communication, getting back to me quickly and with answers to any question I had. Highly recommend this location and this host!

Grundy Cottage was exactly as posted and so lovely for our little getaway. It had the peace and quiet of the country while being close enough to other towns for day trips and drives. Robert was a wonderful host, always quick to respond with any questions and helpful with local activity and food recommendations. I would recommend this place to other couples looking to rest and relax from a busy work week or just as somewhere to escape for a few days!

Me and my man came here for Valentine’s Day’s and had a really nice time. The hot tub was a nice experience. The place was nice, clean and organized. Holly even got us a valentines card and chocolates which was so nice. Will definitely book again when it’s hot outside.

Really like different animals and the experience of feeding them. Kids did spend nice March break here. Wish we can visit again in summer holiday.

This is our second time staying with Kevin. He’s always super responsive and willing to solve any issues we have. It feels like home and the place is super cute and cozy. We love staying here and would recommend anyone to do so as well! Thanks Kevin!

We had a lovely stay at Lee Anne’s place. The pictures really don’t do it justice. The rooms were so comfortable! The beds were dressed with beautiful quality pillows and linens. The kitchen had all the appliances and dishes you will need to entertain a dozen people. The fireplace is positively magnificent and there was plenty of dry wood just outside the door to enjoy it. The grounds are meticulously well kept and Lee Anne’s husband Tom was a pleasure to chat with. This property in the fall is stunning but I can’t imagine any season that would not be amazing here. All in all it was an incredible week in this beautiful home and we would not hesitate to rent it again. Thank you so very much Lee Anne!

We stayed at Kathryn and Gus’s place for a month and really loved it. It’s an entire house surrounded by nature. The property overlooks a small lake near a hiking trail. The house was beautiful and had everything we needed. Kathryn and Gus were great hosts. They were friendly, responsive, and had great recommendations for restaurants and places to see. We enjoyed relaxing on the cozy couch in front of the fireplace. We would love to come back again!

Had an amazing stay at David’s place. Super responsive hosts and the place was super clean!

Perfect location - a block away from cafes and shops, and a short walk to a lovely trail overlooking the gorge. The flat was charming and we took advantage of the comfortable chairs in the back garden to enjoy our morning coffee. Thanks Grace and John for a lovely stay!

Mine was a last minute reservation and Sally’s Place went over and above to make it work for us. The cleaner did a fantastic job and the food provided for breakfast was perfect for my group.

This cozy Airbnb had everything I needed for my short stay in Hamilton – close to friends, shopping, and fun activities. The space itself was beautiful and well cared for. I loved the quiet atmosphere, it was the perfect place to rest, reflect, write, and unwind after my busy days seeing friends in town. The neighbourhood was beautiful and walkable too ! Highly recommended.

This was my second long term stay with Massimo. He’s an excellent host, very thoughtful, the apartment is lovely and had everything I needed. The bed is super comfortable and the porch is a great plus. Transit is 5 minutes walk away. I highly recommend Massimo and his place to future guests.

A clean and bright space accented by many sky lights. It is close to many restaurants, stores and the Avon theatre. Hope to return next year to again enjoy visiting Stratford!

Stephanie has an awesome place! Great communication. Walkable to central Waterdown where there is numerous restaurants and farmer's market. Central to cover Niagara Falls, downtown Toronto, and many of the great local pick your own farms.

We travel to Stratford every year and have done so for about 30 years. We have stayed in a variety of accommodations over the years! We prefer Air BnBs over hotels, and because we travel in a group (we were 8), this location matched our needs perfectly. We like to park the car when we arrive and not use it again until we leave (Stratford is fantastically walkable) -- no problem! We like to try different restaurants -- the location is perfect for that (and for attending theatre). We're close family, but we also like some alone time -- with four bedrooms for 8 people, this apartment offered that! The apartment was large, open and bright with basic amenities suitable for our 2 night stay. The beds were comfortable, and the shared areas were roomy enough for us to gather. The hosts were amazingly responsive -- they provided detailed and accurate info ahead of time, and quickly answered our questions.

We had stayed at another cabin on the property before and we loved it. Mark, Melanie and the entire staff were helpful, friendly, and wonderful! We will always visit them at Willowlake in one form or another. The cottage was so clean upon arrival which was impressive! The only possible downsides would be the dumpsters being right next to the cottage (however smells weren’t an issue while we were there, your patio is on the other side of the cottage) and the staff trailer door was really close to our fire pit so it didn’t feel private or secluded (but the staff were great so that didn’t bother us). The one downside that was a pickle for us was the side door entry. Immediately upon entering the cottage there are stairs going down to the kitchen. We have a four year old so those stairs were a concern but within two days we were used to them and managed to finagle entry better. Overall it was a great experience and they will see us back at Willowlake next summer!

This place was absolutely amazing. It had everything you could possibly need and want. We enjoyed everything- the qames, pool table and darts. We wish we hadn't planned so much so we could make better use of everything. Thomas was very responsive and went out of his way to help when there was something we couldn't figure out. We loved being there and will definitely look to return if we return to Toronto
