summer after '69
Fabulous quite lake front. This rustic cottage is on one of Canada's (and United States)most historic waterways. The canoe route to the upper great lakes and western North America passes by your front window. Imagine all early indigenous travellers, explorers, courier de bois and fur traders used these same waters. The loon's gentle song added to evening grace and a morning wake up call. We had a lovely time.

Another Flawless Stay
Stayed for our fifth straight year and had a great time. We had 6 adults this year which is our most so far but the property is well suited for it. We stayed in the sleeper cabin for the first time and loved it, nothing beats waking up to that view! Great area, lots of nature and nearby activities, fishing off the dock and the kayaks were a hit. Cause a bass and a pike off the dock and saw a lot of animals at the cottage and out on our hikes - a fox, beaver, chipmunks, snake, salamander, frogs, fox, a MOOSE. Another great year, hope to be back soon!

Cottage Paradise
This is a beautiful tranquil cottage experience. The cottage and property are clean and well maintained, and you can tell the owners take pride in seeing that you have a fun and enjoyable stay. It is very private and there is an abundance of wildlife that will amaze you. These type of properties are becoming more difficult to find. This was our third time staying here and we have thoroughly enjoyed it every time. Thanks again to the owners for sharing this lovely cottage.

Cute cabin
Very cute cabin as the pictures showed but unfortunately for us we were limited to the cabin for the entire week as the blackflies were the worst ive ever seen (I grew up in northern ontario). Absolutely stunning riverside view and host was very nice but the blackflies definitely ruined our trip.

Peaceful and relaxing!
We thoroughly enjoyed our vacation at this beautiful, clean, well appointed and comfortable log cabin. Tiny is a very communicative hostess who thinks of all the little extra special things to make everything nicer. The location on the Mattawa River was idyllic. The history of the area was so thoroughly fascinating and important to our Canadian heritage. The town was quaint and the people very friendly. This is a top notch property in a beautiful location. We look forward to our return visit next fall to enjoy the spectacular fall colours. Thank you very much for your hospitality Tina!

Perfect Spot!
This was our third stay at this cabin for a fall ATV trip with some friends and family. Always spotless and well appointed. Three and a half days of rain didn't stop us from having a great time on the VMUTS trail system...which is conveniently just a short ride down the road. Just a few minutes from town yet very private. Everyone in our group loves this place.

The Perfect Getaway
Fourth stay for my girlfriend and I, and the best one yet. This beautiful cottage is such a peaceful, special place and has become a tradition for us to visit. Brought my parents for a couple of days so that they could see why we keep coming back, and they were extremely impressed! So clean and cozy. Best way to unwind and relax. Can’t wait to return next September! Thanks again Tina!

Time Stands Still Here
This is a special place, where time stands still. My husband and son both caught pike off the end the dock, and we enjoyed kayaking around the lake. Unfortunately we could only stay a few days because a family crisis brought us home early.
