The house was quite spacious and all the amenities made for a comfortable stay. It's proximity to all the popular spots ensured us the best time ever. The games kept the kids occupied after a tiring day spent sight seeing. Would definitely choose the same place if we plan another trip here and would highly recommend it to anyone who is interested in holidaying here. ##### Wendell Stayed 5 nights in Jan 2025 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Leonardo Boutique Hotel The Lancaster Amsterdam](https://www.expedia.ca/Amsterdam-Hotels-The-Lancaster-Hotel-Amsterdam.h41006.Hotel-Information) > > [Casino Hotels in Blue Mountains](https://www.expedia.ca/Blue-Mountains-Hotels-Casino-Hotel.0-0-d6035338-tCasinoHotel.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Tuscany Suites & Casino](https://www.expedia.ca/Las-Vegas-Hotels-Tuscany-Suites-Casino.h852937.Hotel-Information) > > [The Westin Calgary](https://www.expedia.ca/Calgary-Hotels-The-Westin-Calgary.h23026.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Express & Suites Windsor East - Lakeshore by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Lakeshore-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-Suites-Lakeshore-Tecumseh.h57563558.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Sault Ste.
