Just spent 2 nights at this amazing location with another family, and have nothing but good to say about the experience. It simultaneously feels like you're living in a piece of history (I mean really, a church build in late 1800s!) and yet everything about the interior space is modern, functional, comfortable, and luxurious. Owners were responsive and helpful, the kitchen is fully stocked with all the tools needed to cook simple to gourmet, plenty of places to sleep for our large group, and both indoor and outdoor areas to hang out and play games. Kids said it was their favorite place that we stayed on our 10-day trip. Highly recommend!

We were a group of 8 canoeing the Rideau canal in stages. We were looking for a rental that would accommodate all of us and parking for our cars and canoes. We certainly found it in this Country Church. There was sufficient bathrooms and shower facilities, great shared kitchen, outdoor barbecues, and deck. The only amenity we missed was a microwave oven.

It’s a place completely unlike any other short term rental I’ve stayed in. Liz was super responsive and made sure our stay was great.
