This convenient homestay is located within 2 kms of downtown Barrie’s magical lakefront action including, restaurants, cafes, pubs as well as the famous Georgian college and RVH hospital. It is easy walking distance to grocery stores, malls and restaurants as well as bus routes.
I try to make my guests feel most comfortable like they are at home and make myself available at their convenience.
I am helpful with questions and travel decisions
I am known to have good communication.

    We, myself and my wife, stayed there for 2 weeks in order to find our new home to Canada !
    (we stayed at the most expensive one - a studio with ensuite and kitchen in the basement)

    First of all, we want to thank Linda-Jo for her great hospitality. We are grateful to have her as our host.

    We also asked her to pick us up at the pearson airport (separate cost). We have too many luggage not fit for 1 go, she arranged a second go for us for a later transfer up from her sister's place and secured (so sweet)!

    Linda-Jo also showed us around for we 2 newbie for Canada. We talked alot. No matter what we asked her, she would be happy to provide us the answers! She is a positive and warm hearted person.

    Great location - quick and easy access to 3 main supermarkets with less than/around 10 minutes walking distance. In fact, we went there to see whats the great best deal almost everyday ! It is a lovely, quiet and safe neighborhood. Can't walk to downtown, but you can take a bus on Bayfield St.

    Chi Leung and his wife Nicole were extremely responsible guests, they were excellent in their communication throughout their booking as well as their stay. It was my pleasure to host them for their first start in Canada. They were super organized and left the apartment super clean upon checkout after their 2 week stay. Thank-you for the amazing hosting experience, guests like you are what makes Homestay.com successful!

How do I book?

Contact the host to check their availability and ask them any questions you have about staying with them. Once the host confirms they’re available for your dates, you can complete your booking.

You then pay your host on arrival or as stated by your host on their profile and agreed by you on booking. Please be cautious if a host requests advance payment if its not included on their profile. Our hosts have been advised that if they wish to request advance payment they must make this explicit in their profile. We do not recommend the use of Money gram or Western Union.
