About this cottage rental
Located in historic Bedford Township, on pristine Devil Lake, 30 minutes north of Kingston, Ontario, a 6.5 acre property with over 2,000 feet of water frontage, the newly renovated Bedford Lake House was purpose built to welcome guests year round.
Each season with its own delights - fall colours, winter's ice access to the lake, spring's vibrancy and classic summer relaxation.
This property has all the most desirable features of a waterfront setting - private, yet easily accessed with south and west facing views looking across to the far shore of Devil Lake, a gentle slope to access clear and deep water and a beautiful shorelines with bays to explore.
The Culinary Garden
A unique feature is the raised bed garden with copious seasonal fresh vegetables and herbs specifically for the enjoyment of guests (when in season) .
The Lake House
A fully equipped kitchen opens to the living room with its cathedral ceiling, warm fireplace and a spectacular full height architectural array of windows making the ever changing lake view central to the atmosphere. A large adjoining dining room has views on three sides. Additionally there are several access points to the open decks and gathering area around a full featured BBQ.
NOTE: Rental is for three main bedrooms (2 king beds and two extra long twins), each having a west facing patio door and deck with two having 4-piece on suites for convenience and privacy.
*NEW* Optional 4th bedroom (separately accessed from the outside), with ensuite 2-piece bathroom. This is available when booking for more than 6 people.
The Bedford Lake House is fully climate controlled with central heating, air conditioned, air tight fireplace and equipped with circulating fans in each room. A washer and dryer is available for guest use.
The Property
By the shores, there is a fire pit patio with Adirondack chairs plus more secluded locations with a hammock or reading relaxation and of course a large dock for swimming and docking private boats. There is a public boat launch conveniently nearby. Watercraft provided include kayaks, canoe and a pedal boat.
Access
The location also affords easy access to local hiking and cycling trails and Frontenac Provincial Park is at the west end of the lake. Take a 10 minute drive to the quaint villages of Westport or Newboro, both on the Rideau Canal, a UNESCO World Heritage site. Alternatively, spend a day in historic Kingston for a 1000 Islands Cruise, a Kingston Penitentiary tour, Fort Henry and many other attractions, as well as a selection of restaurants unmatched by any city of its size.
So private, yet easily accessed. Only 30 minutes north of Kingston; 1.5 hours southwest of Ottawa and 3 hours from Toronto or Montreal.

An absolutely beautiful house at a terrific location on the water with perfect hosts. Couldn’t ask for anything more. We were all over the moon with everything.

Everything was perfect! Well stocked, comfortable furniture, exceptionally comfortable beds and luxurious feeling bedding, super friendly hosts, clean, clean, clean, quiet and clean lake. We just couldn't ask for more. The garden was wonderful and plentiful even in October. And the view!!! There couldn't be a prettier view on a lake in Ontario. There were stairs to the lakefront but they were managable. No burning leg muscles even for us over 60's. I would not hesitate to book another vacation here.
Thank you so much Paula & Hugh.

We had an amazing time staying at Paula and Hugh's home. They were so kind and welcoming, and made sure the place was in prestine shape for our stay. The home itself is absolutely stunning, but the view was by far our favourite. I would recommend staying here if you ever get the chance. We will definitely be back!!

The property is beautiful! The views of the lake are outstanding. The lake house is very well stocked with everything you could need, especially the kitchen. The peddle boat, kayaks and canoe were put to good use. Devil Lake is picturesque and lovely to boat on, fishing is fun as well. The property is wonderful! The only issue people may have if they bring a boat over 15 or 16 feet is the public launch is on a 70km road and you need to go into the live lane to line up for the launch and there is no dock beside it. Everything about the property itself is amazing! It is a wonderful place for relaxing and enjoying lakefront living!

Our stay at the Bedford Lakehouse was so much fun. The lake house is gorgeous and the views are incredible. The home has everything and more for a great stay. Hope to go back again.

The Bedford Lakehouse is beautiful! There was nothing that this home lacked. If you enjoy cooking the kitchen has everything you need. Paula and Hugh have put so much care and thought into the decor and how the home is laid out for comfort and enjoyment.
The lake is pristine with stunning sunsets. While we didn't swim the water was warm and wished we had brought our swimsuits.
The garden was also a nice surprise!
Paula and Hugh are wonderful hosts. They were very easy to reach if we needed anything. And, a pleasure to speak with.
Thank you for sharing your beautiful Bedford Lakehouse and we hope to visit again.
Kind regards,
The Allens

Located on its own little peninsula at Devil's Lake, this recently remodeled custom 3-bedroom home is an idyllic retreat. We really enjoyed the privacy of the master suite with its own private entry, while our adult children had their own complete suites. The kitchen was outfitted perfectly, and the garden provided some incredible vegetables. The BBQ and outdoor eating area overlooking the lake was wonderful. We made full use of the kayaks and paddle boat, and really enjoyed swimming off the dock. Out hosts, Paula and Hugh were attentive and generous. We were very pleased with our entire experience. Candace and Roger

My husband and friends and I had an incredible time at the lake house. Very comfortable with plenty of space in the living room, dining room, kitchen and bedrooms. The property was beautiful and situated on a point. The sunsets were gorgeous and the lake was quiet. We enjoyed seeing the turtles sunning themselves on the rocks. The hosts were gracious allowing us to use their vegetable and herb garden. We look forward to going back again.

Beautiful, clean cottage with breathtaking views. Paula & Hugh have thought of all the details to ensure a memorable, carefree stay.
We thoroughly enjoyed the watercraft, and waterfront campfires at night. Looking forward to returning in the future!

An Amazing Week!
From the moment we drove up to the property, we knew this would be a special experience. The cottage/lake house is located in a quiet, private bay and the views are spectacular, particularly in the morning and evening, where we were fortunate to see a variety of amazing sunsets. We enjoyed many days on the water, both swimming and paddling around the lake in the kayaks and canoe provided. The check-in and check-out process was seamless and Paula and Hugh made sure everything we needed was readily available. The perfect way to start the summer! Thanks! ☺️

Lake Cottage Getaway
This is such a lovely property elevated above the lake with stunning views, particularly at sunset. We loved exploring the lake by canoe and were able to get really close to loons and turtles. The house is equipped with everything you could possibly need. A perfect Canadian luxury cottage experience.

A wonderful first cottage experience for our friends. From sitting around the campfire next to the lake, hearing the loons call across the water, watching the spectacular sunsets to making meals together in the fully stocked kitchen, we had a fantastic time. Thank you Paula and Hugh for taking care of every detail. We hope to be back.

Beautiful large home, with outstanding indoor and outdoor amenities.
The mattresses and the pillows are super comfortable. Loved the open concept kitchen into the living room overlooking the lake. The kitchen has all the gadgets a seasoned-chef would hope for! The covered barbecue deck is convenient and spacious for outdoor lunches.
We were here for March Break with our young family who appreciated the games, puzzles and seeing the deer in morning by the lake.
The waterfront is outstanding. Although we were here in the winter, we have been at this lake during the summer, and it is no doubt one of the cleanest and most peaceful in the area!
Paula and Hugh are wonderful hosts: very responsive and thoughtful. Looking forward to coming back!
