Lovely house north of Toronto, Ontario,....heading into cottage country.
Hello, we are Neil and Ellen. We live in a small town between a major city and the “great outdoors”! Our home is a lovely two storey 4 bedroom home in the centre of town. We have 2 bedrooms with queen beds, 1 bedroom an office with a double pull out bed and the master bedroom has a king bed and ensuite bathroom with a shower. There is also another 4 piece bathroom on this floor. On the main floor we have living, dining, family rooms as well as kitchen, eating area, laundry and two piece bathroom. There is also a sunroom off the kitchen which we pretty much live in during the summer months. We have a charming back garden that backs on to a large municipal park which has a splash pad, playground equipment, baseball diamond, 4 tennis courts, a pavilion and lots of green space. We are on a cul de sac and have great neighbours....most of us have been here 35 years. One of our 3 sons lives about 10 minutes away with his wife and 3 daughters. So many places to go from our house.....Toronto, capital of Ontario; Ottawa,...capital of Canada; Niagara Falls,.... a wonder of the world; Canada’s Wonderland...Canada’s largest theme park; Algonquin Park...a huge wilderness park with many lakes and resorts; Wasaga Beach, ....Canada’s longest fresh water beach.

About Our Family
We have both been retired for several years. Neil was in telecommunications and Ellen in advertising. We love to travel and have done 10 house exchanges in the last 8 years. We did our previous exchanges with LoveHomeSwap if you wish to check comments from happy exchange guests.
We have 3 sons who are all married and have given us 6 lovely grandchildren. We get a huge amount of enjoyment from these “little people”! One of our sons lives very close to our house and would be around to help out with anything during your holiday.
Lifestyle
We love to travel and visit other countries. We have done 14 exchanges and quite enjoy the way you can really get to know an area . We love long walks, theatre, reading, new dining experiences and just sitting in a cafe watching the world go by!
