This home is perfect for those who don't want the hotel room experience but a truly want to relax in a HOME away from home. This charming spacious 3 bedroom apartment is on the main floor of a lovely brick bungalow, centrally located between downtown, picturesque Hillcrest Park, and the Mariday Park neighbourhood. There is a huge backyard and convenient on site free parking right outside your door. The house features a large living room with a 55” smart tv, a 6 person dining room, full kitchen, desk area for you to work at, and beautifully renovated bathroom. Enjoy free internet throughout the property. The kitchen has everything you need to enjoy morning coffee, to cook tasty meals, or stock the fridge full of your favourites. The bedrooms all boast queen size beds, and soft cozy linens and pillows. You will be comfortable with your family and will be just a stone’s throw away from all the beauty and fun that Thunder Bay has to offer. The TBay law school, Magnus theatre and the bustling restaurants downtown are all a short 5-15 minute walk. If its space and relaxation that you want, this main floor apartment hosts up to 6 guests in 3 bedrooms (3 queen beds in total), and the lower level apartment can host up to 4 quests in 2 rooms (1 Queen & 2 singles). With small little touches throughout, this home away from home might just be that unique stay that you are looking for!
Hello! My name is Nina and I have lived in Thunder Bay for 42 years of my life. I have travelled the world and am a breast cancer survivor celebrating 10 years cancer free! I have 3 grown up children and enjoy life as a cancer coach. I have since moved to Montreal for love, however Thunder Bay will always be my HOME. I welcome travellers from near and far, and would love to have you rest and explore Thunder Bay in my home!
The Neighbourhood is very walkable and safe. It’s a main street, but within 2 minutes walk you are at Hillcrest Park where you can enjoy the most gorgeous views of the city and unparalleled views of the magnificent Sleeping Giant. Just around the corner is the Thunder Bay Law School and Magnus Theatre. Further down the hill you will find many locally owned restaurants and shops. Continue down, and you will hit the beautiful Thunder Bay Marina…where you can walk the gorgeous shores, eat, and breathe in not only the fresh air, but the magnificent views of Lake Superior… North America’s largest fresh water lake!
