Quick get away

I came to the Niagara region to visit with a friend that lives in the area. It’s a perfect location away from all the busy city stuff. Getting to The Hoblet was easy and really feels like we were way out in the country, but just a short drive to the activities in the area. The animals are so great and are so fun to interact with. The cabin was comfortable and had everything we needed. It truly is an enchanting place.

Honeymoon getaway

When you arrive, you will be greeted by many friendly animals! Dawn is really easy to communicate with and timely in responses. The Hoblet was the perfect size for my husband and I on our honeymoon. One thing we wish we knew prior to our stay would be the toilet situation with not flushing toilet paper due to their septic. One thing we love, is that the money we spent on our stay goes directly to supporting the animals with food and comfort.

A quaint little hideaway in the woods

Our stay at the Hoblet was very relaxing and allowed us to get away from the city and busyness of the world. The fireplace, sauna and overall decor made us feel very welcomed and encouraged us to relax and take time away from the internet and our devices in general. Spending time with the animals on site was one of our favourite parts!

A lovely place for animal lovers

We stayed here for a weekend and were blown away by how many lovely rescued animals were there for us to interact with and feed. The owner was easy to get in touch with and very accomodating. We can't recommend this place more@

Friendly Home Away from Home

We stayed at the Hoblet as a home base for some quiet, relaxing time away - a nice, humble home. The animals were a bonus - especially Norman who greeted us each time as we walked backed to the cabin.

Lovely Animal Sanctuary

It is a lovely little place to stay with the main selling point being the animals. They are so friendly and we loved being around them! The Hoblet was clean and a little quirky which added to its charm. The host was extremely nice and easy to contact.

Great place

We arrived on a Friday and stayed until Sunday. Was very cute and quaint, all the animals around made me feel very much at home and I loved talking to them and petting each one of them. The Hoblet where we stayed was clean and comfortable, quiet, and private which was nice. Thank you!

Nice change of pace

We stayed here while visiting the falls. My girlfriend loves animals so I surprised her by booking this. She was very excited when we arrived to see them all. The little cottage we stayed at was lovely and had a nice outdoor area.

Relaxing Getaway

We booked a three night stay that felt like we were away for one week. It was very relaxing to be surrounded by nature and many new outside friends :) The Hoblet offered us an opportunity to disengage from the busyness of life while providing all of the amenities necessary to feel right at home. We hope to book another visit.

The Hoblet

My wife and I stayed at the “Hoblet” and could not have been happier. Dawn, our host, was very responsive to all queries and made sure that our entire stay was stress free and enjoyable. The property was well maintained and very clean when we arrived. Check-in was hassle free and easy. We enjoyed interacting with and feeding the animals throughout the week that we were there. Would absolutely recommend this property over any boring hotel stay any day of the week.

Wonderful stay

This is the cutest wee animal sanctuary. Place was clean and comfortable. Communication with owner was immediate and excellent. It is a bit rustic, but for me, i was very happy. Highly recommend and if we come back to the area definitely staying here. Close to everything. Niagra falls, niagra on the lake, Weiland locks, tulip farm all within 20- 30 min.

Fantastic Experience

We stayed here for a week and had a great time. The Hoblet stayed nice and cool despite high temps and high humidity during our stay there. It was the perfect quiet getaway while we explored the area and visited family. Dawn was very responsive and helpful, and we loved being able to feed the various goats and alpacas by hand. (Wanda the cat was also a wonderful part of our stay.) Definitely not an experience we'll forget any time soon!

Magical Stay!

What a unique and unforgettable place to stay! From the moment we arrived, we were charmed by the peaceful surroundings and the adorable animals. Feeding and petting the baby goats, alpacas, and even being followed around by the friendly turkeys made our time downtown truly special.The host, Dawn, was absolutely amazing—so kind, responsive, and genuinely welcoming. When we asked to meet the animals, she went above and beyond to give us a personal tour. Her warmth really made the experience that much better.The cottage itself was beautiful—spacious, cozy, and surrounded by greenery. The sauna was a great bonus and very easy to use, adding a touch of relaxation to our weekend.We also loved how close it was to Niagara Falls and Niagara-on-the-Lake, both quick and scenic drives through stunning farmland and vineyards. We even took a bike ride along the farm roads and were blown away by how gorgeous the area is.Highly recommend this property if you're looking for something peaceful, fun, and a little magical!
