Welcome to
DUNCAN-QUINN HOUSE
in Niagara-on-the-Lake
Ontario Canada

General Description

Duncan-Quinn House was inspired by Colonial days gone by. The inn is similar to the Old Williamsburg Colonial houses and early Niagara-on-the Lake homes. The interior schemes are those that evoke a sense of the past in their combination of subdued colors, elegant lines, and motifs borrowed from traditional late 19th-century English colonial design. By using a combination of period, vintage, and reproduction English, Canadian and American Colonial furnishings the experience is complete. You will find Oak floors, mullioned high windows, reproduction antique doors, high ceilings, and hand stenciled furniture. Classic Georgian Colonial exterior architecture with dormer windows, and clapboard siding all lend itself to this period and style. We have strived to create comfortable rooms where our guests feel this little bit of history.
Duncan-Quinn House offers comfort and tranquility while you stay in historic Niagara-on-the Lake.
2 night minimum at weekends in High Season-APRIL 1ST TO OCT 31ST

Duncan-Quinn House is located on a quiet street, minutes from downtown. Only a few steps away is the famous Colonel Butler's Cemetery. Colonel Butler was a very important historical figure in Niagara-on the-Lake , then known as Newark. John Butler was born in New London, Conn. in 1728. He saw action at Ticonderoga, Lake George and he was part of the capture of Fort Forontenac,Niagara and Montreal. During the peace following the conquest of Canada, John took up management of his estate, some 27 thousand acres. He then led a detachment of Indians from Niagara at the Battle of Oriskany in August of 1777. His success led to raising the Corps of Rangers that served with the Indians on the Frontiers (Butler's Rangers). At the end of revolution he returned to farming and became one of the leaders in the settlement on the Niagara Penn. . John Butler died at Niagara, May 12th 1796. John Butler can truly be described as one of the Founding Fathers of Upper Canada.
