Things You Need To Know
Our MINIMUM stay is always at least 31 days, with preference given to a full calendar month stays.
Your initial stay can be as short as a month or as long as 3 months. There is a possibility to extend your stay, if the apartment is not pre-booked; and the extension is approved by the owner of the property that you are staying at.
Full CALENDAR MONTH stays qualify for deep discounts in overall cost; those discounts are calculated at booking time.
​
IF you need to stay for 31 days, but portion of your stay falls on one month and ends in another, your cost will be calculated on per night bases. Cost is always determined based on the initial length of your stay, and the number of people moving in.

Mariposa house and other properties that we offer, are located in a residential neighborhoods, on a quiet streets in South-East Barrie. All homes and apartments are about an hour from Pearson International Airport in Toronto, and about an hour from Muskoka Cottage Country.
Mariposa House has a large apartment on the main floor and another in the lower level of the house. You can walk to several restaurants, a recreation centre (with a pool, gym and hockey arenas), you also have an easy access to Barrie waterfront, Georgian College, Royal Victoria Hospital and Hwy 400.
​
Other places are further away from the Mariposa School of Skating, but still within an easy access to all area amenities.
We will offer that same courtesy to you as our guest. It is only then, that we can provide the availability information to you.
For that very reason, we choose not to use online booking service - as it would not be accurate (since the needs of our guests often change at the last minute).
There is also another reason: When companies use online booking service, there is always an added cost to you - and we strive to keep our cost down, so you can enjoy an affordable accommodations. We book slightly slower, but your overall cost will not be hiked up.
​
Arrival
We do our best to be there to meet you when you arrive; however, on the occasion that may not be possible. If that's the case you will receive instructions with a lockbox number, so you can enter the house when you get there.
Quiet Enjoyment
Our goal is to accommodate the specific needs of our guests and make them as comfortable as possible. Your comfort is first and foremost and so is the comfort of your next-door neighbor that is sharing the house with you during your stay. This is why we kindly ask that you consider other guests when choosing to play loud music any time during your stay; and that all the laundry is done before 10 pm, etc. Parties and large celebrations are not allowed.
​
​
We are very flexible with our bookings to accommodate the changing needs of our guests. That means that we will most likely not be able to provide an instant availability information on any of our units - it's just simply technically impossible; here is why: When you contact us with your planned arrival dates and we have someone already staying in the unit; we will contact them immediately to verify if their departure plans have not changed.
