This 175 year old treasure has been lovingly cared for and tastefully decorated by it's owners. Located on a quiet, tree-lined street overlooking a pretty park, your "home away from home" is only .8 km from the center of historic old town.
In 2002, Cathy and Jim Rye bought the house as a second home and make it available for rent to discerning tourist. They now live in Florida, but Cathy was born and raised in nearby St. Catharines.
The Griffin House was named in memory of Cathy's grandmother, Mary Griffin. Mary's family was of British descent, having migrated to Nassau, Bahamas in the early 1600's. Mary emigrated as a bride to the Niagara area in the early 1900's and one of her favorite pastimes was visiting Niagara on the Lake for ice-cream.
The Ryes are proud of the Griffin House and hope you enjoy your visit there as much as they do.
