Eclipse trip to Montreal
We had a last minute trip to Montréal for the eclipse after clouds rolled in to cancel our trip to Texas. I came across the listing for this property and was so lucky it was available. My husband and I traveled with 2 small boys and my 80 yo mother. The place can obviously hold more people but our party shrunk to the 5 of us so we had a lot of space.
The place is incredible. It's right in the middle of old town Montréal. We could walk everywhere and then to get to other parts of the city, the subway was a 10 min walk. The charm starts immediately as you have to pull your car through a narrow tunnel (that does fit giant American cars though!) off the Main Street to a courtyard. The house itself is lovely from the outside and the interior is just beautiful. It's warm and elegant but at the same time funky and fun and not intimidating. I didn't feel like my kids had to walk on eggshells at all. We were met by Rowan the property manager who was so kind and helpful, and this is after I had correspondence with our host about the house and she was equally as kind and helpful. Both of them made us feel right at home and were so helpful with tips about restaurants and advice for heading out to the eastern provinces for the eclipse.
We ran into no issues in the house, slept remarkably well in the beautiful bedrooms, drank all the champagne our hosts kindly left us and felt like being at the house was as much part of our adventure and wonderful stay in Montréal as exploring the city
