Lakes Mini Break

The property was perfect for our stay. We had driven from Niagara and was greeted by the owner who was warm, friendly and welcoming. Comfortable bedrooms, spacious living spaces, excellently equipped kitchen and outdoor facilities. The location was central enough in the lakes to provide access to other areas. Conveniently located near shops within ten minutes. Quiet, scenic and very comfortable. Would stay again.

Great getaway place

We loved the location of the cottage - being on the main floor felt like sitting in the treetops; very peaceful. The cottage itself was spotless and very well equipped- home away from home. Everyone loved the campfire, with the firewood already provided! Dwayne was an amazing host and truly attentive to our needs - we felt truly spoiled!

Great Place

My wife and I plus 3 grandkids were here for a week. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. There was a nature preserve down the road with a 2.8 km hiking trail, helped tired the kids out. Westport, a town close by, had a really nice beach. The cabin had everything we needed. Dwayne was great to deal, would definitely stay here again.

Lovely Cottage Home in Nature

We had a group of six friends staying at this lovely cottage and we had a great time. The area in the cottage is quite secluded, but there is room to relax at the fire pit or out on the deck. The cottage has many spots to relax, lots of games to play, and the kitchen is well equipped to make any meal you need. Can't wait to come back!

Cabin Getaway

A gorgeous new cabin nestled on a beautiful, private property, offering all the comforts of home in the great outdoors. There's plenty of space for the whole family both inside and out, with a lovely deck and fire pit perfect for evening relaxation. The property is incredibly peaceful, yet there’s plenty to do nearby—beaches, scenic hiking trails, charming restaurants, and shopping in quaint villages. The 1000 Islands cruise is only a half-hour away, and we enjoyed exploring the nearby towns around the region’s stunning lakes. Nature lovers will especially appreciate the wildlife—deer and various bird species were frequent visitors to the property. We highly recommend this place and look forward to returning soon. The owners are friendly, attentive, and clearly take great pride in their property and guests.

Dwayne was there to meet us and explain all the amenities. I and my two adult daughters had a wonderful, restful weekend. The beds were comfortable, the linens were new and fresh, and the setting was all that we needed in this newly built cabin. We would recommend it to anyone looking for a getaway in the midst of the woods.

Wonderful summer stay.

I booked this beautiful property for my family to get away from the city and reconnect. We absolutely loved it. The space was clean and nicely equipped. Especially the kitchen, its important to us as we do cook quite a bit. The property is private and very quiet, just a short drive to cute little towns and Gananoque. The bunkbed is noisy/squeaky but all other beds were very comfortable. Highly recommend this property.

Thank you Dwayne for sharing your lovely house. We all loved sitting out on the huge decks and enjoying the peace and quiet. Only issue the house is not handicap accessible. Otherwise loved it We traveled the area and the many locks, we could have spent all of our time there watching the process. My daughter-in-law even had a chance to turn the wheel to open the lock for the boats.

The cottage was so well designed with enough bathrooms and bedrooms to allow us for a comfortable stay. The host was very communicative and gave us a tour, answered all our questions and knew where things were in the vicinity in case we needed to access anything. My favourite part was every time I thought I needed a specific utensil in the kitchen and it wouldn’t be there, it was!! The host clearly thought of everything!

Our cottage/log home built in 2021 is located in a quiet forested area near the Rideau Lakes. The cottage sits high on a hill looking into the trees.
This is a very peaceful and quiet location, where you can spend time with family far away from the hustle and bustle of daily life. Lounge on the 38'x10'deck and the12'x12' covered porch where you can sit and enjoy the sound of the birds and watch the deer that frequent the property.
Inside the cottage is a comfortable living space with well equipped kitchen & dining area, 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms gives up to 8 guests plenty of space.

The area has some great food available from local takeout restaurants to fine dining and local winery's.
A short 30 min drive to Gananoque and the 1000 islands and Casino,
40 min to Kingston, 90 min to Ottawa. makes this a great location.
The fall and winter is a wonderful time of year to be at the cottage the beautiful scenery with the leaves turning or the snow on the trees is spectacular.
