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

Wonderful stay in Thunder Bay
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.

Comfortable Place to Connect
We came from a two day drive away and decided to stay here because it looked like a welcoming and comfortable to connect with our eldest before sending him off to Lakehead University for the first time. And it was! Our boys were so excited about the yummy chips Taina and Mike had left and we were delighted to have breakfast ready for us to make so we could spend time connecting over a nice leisurely brunch. It was a perfect location to grab last minute things for our eldest and it was quiet so we could sleep well before and after the big move! Thank you Taina and Mike! We will definitely be back when we are visiting 🙏❤️

Fantastic stay
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!

Great place in TB!
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.

Perfect Stay
We stayed in this apartment after canoeing 6 days in the back country of Quetico and it turned out to be an excellent place to rest and regroup. We enjoyed the spaciousness and all the special touches that made our stay so comfortable. (pancake breakfast, chips, coffee, tea, coins for laundry, etc. and the extra toothbrushes/toothpaste that were unexpectantly needed.) The location was great and close to the marina. 30 minutes got us to the worth seeing Kakabeka Falls. Communication was always quick and the notes around the place were helpful. Thank you for making this a home away from home!

Strongly recommend! Great space!
This was an amazing place to stay for a long weekend there with all of our family! We stayed from Thursday- Sunday and it was so great. This place from reservations to check in to our stay to check out was great. Tania and Mike were responsive when we had questions and very good hosts. We especially loved how well stocked the place was, it was like being in your own apartment. We also loved how close it was to everything in Thunder Bay! It was a nice spacious VRBO as well with tall ceilings. Would absolutely recommend it to anyone and would definitely stay here again- thank you Mike and Tania!
