We renovated the former Queen Elizabeth School into apartments-this is the former science classroom-approximately 1150 s.f. with ceilings over 12 ft high-lots of big windows that open. The apartment allows complete self sufficiency-from forks to all furnishings-all appliances-bedding......51" curved Samsung TV-netflix-youtube-Prime-hey Google...... Laundry is coin-op but coins are provided so it's free. Except for last minute bookings we provide fresh Finn pancake batter-strawberries-whipped cream- all pans and cooking instructions for guests to make their own Finn pancake breakfast. Mix and cooking instructions by a former cook at The Hoito- probably the most famous Finnish restaurant in Northern Ontario. Please send a message with your booking as to who all is staying-generally- and the purpose of your stay.Thank you Pet friendly-15/nite pet fee

Was a great place to stay for the weekend with two teens and a dog. Beds were super comfy, Finnish pancakes were delicious. Hosts were very quick to respond when I asked a question.

We really enjoyed staying in the VRBO rental in Thunder Bay. The aoartment was well laid out and the furniture very comfortable. We really enjoyed theFinnish pancakes with berries and whio cream. Taina and Mike were great hosts. Thank you so much for the ease in accessing your site . The tv channels and the alexa pod were bonus features. When we are in Thunder Baynext time, we will check to see if we can rent your VRBO apartment again.

We have stayed in quite a few vacation rentals over the years...and this may be the single nicest place we've ever stayed. Just a beautiful apartment, absolutely spotless with every amenity we could think of. We were there during a summer heat wave, but the air conditioner in the living room did a good job of keeping things comfortable. We also enjoyed the Finnish pancakes!

We loved our stay at this property. It was clean, extremely well stocked, and a convenient location to get around town. We loved that it was on a renovated school with fun details like the old style floors in some spaces. Loved the Finnish pancakes, strawberries and cream that were left for us to enjoy our first morning. Definitely recommend this spot and these owners.

We booked this property because it was in a good location. We are former Thunder Bay residents returning for a visit. The property is centrally located in a good area. It is close to shopping, attractions and our old neighbourhood. We brought our dog with us. The property is very dog friendly, with paw drying towels and poop bags provided at the door. Also, a great dog park (if your dog is medium/large, and comfortable playing with lots of others) is located within a 10 minute walk. The property was clean and very well appointed. The premade Finn pancake mix, with strawberries and cream, was a welcome touch. Very delicious. The hosts were very responsive to our requests for information. They had a beeping smoke detector attended to within hours. The beds are comfortable, although we'll bring our own pillows next time (the supplied pillows were a bit thin for our liking). The property is located in an old school (I had shop classes there as a kid) and is very well restored. The high ceilings and old bits of the original building lend a nice touch. We will definitely use this place again! Thanks Taina and Mike.
