About this cabin rental

But it is on a quiet point on beautiful Big Rideau Lake, part of the historic Rideau Canal system, where the fishing runs 24/7! Insulated, cozy, lots of space for kids to play. Dock space for one boat, and a canoe included. This is a paddler's paradise, and a true nature-lover's getaway. Two bedrooms, bathroom with tub. On a quiet cottage road 5 minutes to Portland, and just an hour's drive to Kingston or Ottawa. Pet friendly.

It was so nice to hear the loons at night. Cottage was very comfy and close to store as needed - we all had a very restful time

Our family had a wonderful vacation. The cabin has everything you need and was very cozy. Also great fishing on the lake and lots of places to visit nearby will be back again. Thanks Liz and Jane for a great stay.

Great communication with the owners who were very responsive when the front door lock didn't work and who provided us with a functioning BBQ and helped us fix some TV service issues.Lovely people. The cottage is basic, with typical cottage quirks. No shower, ( a tub with handheld shower wand)and no swimming at the cottage. The mattresses were typical for cottages - one too firm and the other too soft. Bedrooms are small and hot.Fabulous quilts adorned the beds though. Lots of pots and pans. Great sharp knives.. Beware the oven runs 100 degrees hotter than what it's set at - I didn't see that note until the last day! The place would benefit from a good scrub - but it's a cottage ! The owners park their cars on the lot as they come and go to their personal cottage on a nearby island.. not at all an issue - they let us know by text when they planned to be on the property. We were there during a hot spell and the two bedroom fans ( also both a bit grimy) couldn't keep up. It was quite buggy outside, being surrounded by trees and a wetlands area out front - the owners did have some citronella candles and coils for us to use. Bring bug spray! There is a screened-in tent, but the bugs have managed to get in there, so we really didn't use it. We tried fishing off the dock,and took the canoe out for a paddle. The neighbours are lovely. All in all, it was too long in a small hot cabin for us. I think that a shorter stay in cooler weather would have been great..

This is an outstanding cottage rental. A beautiful property that has everything one might want (and many things I did not know I needed but really appreciated). The owners were super quick to respond and extremely friendly. I highly recommend this place!!!

We had a great time staying at this cozy fishing cottage, the kids both caught fish for the first time, some of which were big enough to fry over the outdoor fire and eat! Great spot for kids to fish off the dock, the fish were very active. There was plenty of firewood and the house was well stocked with pots and pans etc. There are loons, turtles, otters and other friendly creatures, a real nature spot. Highly recommend for the serenity and a very comfortable cottage. We will absolutely consider staying here again. While swimming isn't on the cards off the dock because of the nature of those wetlands, there is a great little swimming beach in town a few minutes drive from the cottage, a great plus which the kids enjoyed a lot.

We enjoyed our 4 days there . We were able to catch edible size fish off the dock and just to sit and watch all the wildlife happening was great . Cooked over a open firepit all week . Great experience we had thank you for letting us enjoy your cabin in the woods
