We offer off-street parking and if backing out of a long driveway is not something you're comfortable with, there is always ample street parking. We are a social bunch and would love to learn more about you and help you make your stay as enjoyable as possible. We live in the unit below so are close by if you need anything. We do, however, respect those who would like to spend some quiet time alone (we feel like that too sometimes!). We're located on the best tree lined street in historic Parkside. Our neighborhood is a destination in and of itself. A time warp where you'll see kids running around until the street lights come on or the dinner bell is rung. We are only a few houses away from the Darwin Martin Complex and the Church of the Good Sheppard (where the annual garden walk and tour of homes starts). We're under a five minute walk from the Buffalo Zoo and Delaware Park where you can jog, bike, roller blade, golf, cross country ski, take the kids to the playground or just have a quiet picnic. In addition to the Tour of Homes and Garden Walk, the Parkside Community Association also holds a number of events throughout the year which include outings like "Movies in the Meadow" where you can take a lawn chair, blanket, and some food and enjoy a free movie under the stars! We're on a bus line and a 10 minute walk to the subway station which gives you easy access to Buffalo's theater district, Canalside, and harbor center. Watch a Bisons ball game, catch a Sabres game downtown, or a Bills game only 30 minutes south of here. The expressway is just a couple of blocks away, so hop in your car, and in a matter of minutes you're at the interactive Buffalo Museum of Science (20 min by bike), Albright-Knox and Birchfield Penny art galleries (10 minutes by bike), Buffalo and Erie County Historical Society (10 minutes by bike), and the shops and restaurants on the Elmwood Strip and Hertel Avenue., as well as the Canadian border. In 15 minutes (by car) you'll find yourself at the Galleria Mall, and within 30 you can be skiing, sledding, looking over the wondrous Niagara Falls, trying your luck at the casino or just catching one of their shows, tasting wines at the many area wineries, or picking your own apples/pumpkins/berries (when in season) The bus line and subway are minutes away. Buffalo is also very bicycle friendly and you can access much of what it has to offer this way. By car, you'll be anywhere you want to go in 30 minutes or less. Location, location, location. You'll fall in love with our quiet, family centered, neighborhood. Clean! I personally ensure that the space is the cleanest that you've stayed. A toilet that simply looks clean is not good enough.
