Osler House

Osler House was built in 1848, in the early Victorian era by William Miller, a lawyer who practiced many years in Dundas, and was later appointed the judge for the nearby county of Waterloo. This was the childhood home of Sir William Osler, the world-famous physician. This exquisite Georgian-style house, which offers the romance of a distant and gracious time, has been lovingly restored, blending 21st century convenience and technology with 19th century charm and elegance. Guests are treated to the refined level of hospitality practiced in the aristocratic homes of the Victorian era: warm, personal and welcoming. Three luxuriously appointed bedrooms are offered, each with private bathroom, comfortable king or queen sized bed, TV, and high-speed internet. Epicurean meals, freshly prepared and pleasing to the most discriminating palate, are served in the elegant dining room or on the cheerful sun porch in the summer season. The historical ambiance of Osler House, replete with antiques and personal treasures, entices the senses and coaxes our guests to enjoy and relax. Perfect for a romantic getaway or a memorable business stay, we offer a private and tranquil setting, where deer and rabbits are often spotted on the property; yet it is within walking distance of charming stores, transportation and restaurants. Downtown Toronto and Niagara Falls are less than an hour’s drive away; the Royal Botanical Gardens, McMaster University and Medical Centre, the Bruce Trail, and numerous conservation areas are mere minutes away.
