    Denis & Elizabeth were more than accommodating. Yes their driveway is sloped . However Denis knew how to park our little pleasureway no problem . We filled our water , had power for the night. We also had a nice visit with them both . thank you again for sharing your driveway!!

    We felt very welcomed and got great recommendations how to explore Ottawa with our bikes. To get in their driveway it was a bit tricky with our 25foot RV but they helped us to setup and it turned out fine. You feel that it is their goal, that their guests feel comfortable. We even where invited to use their backyard and pool. We really enjoyed our stay.

    Very accommodating and gracious hosts. Quiet neighborhood with a walking trail at the end of the cul de sac for our dog. Highly recommend and thanks for hosting.

    This is in a lovely newish neigbourhood with great connections to cycling routes either into Ottawa or up to Gatineau Park. Our host very generously provided both water and 15amp connections and helped us set up on his fairly steep driveway. Perhaps even more importantly, he was very generous with information concerning local cycling routes such as a one hour ride through the forest behind his house. Highly recommended!
