Westport Lake House

Beautiful 4 bedroom, 2 bathroom lake house with separate bunkie on the sought after Upper Rideau Lake, where you can boat anywhere in the world from this dock along the Rideau Canal, the Unesco World Heritage site.

The water is clear and deep with easy access to the oversized floating dock, excellent for swimming, fishing and boating.

Lots of sleeping options with a brand new King size bed in the lower walk-out, a queen size in the upper master, and two double beds in the second and third bedroom upstairs. There is also a bunkie with two double beds and a single.

Lots of seating areas to entertain your family and friends, a covered porch with rocking chairs to admire the bonfire in front while you admire the lake, and a screened in porch to dine in and relax while reading.

Located 1.5hrs South/West of Downtown Ottawa and 50 minutes North of Kingston, near the charming town of Westport. The sought after Upper Rideau Lake is the large body of water connected to the Big Rideau. Pets are to be discussed due to allergy concerns. There is a fully stocked kitchen, and BBQ with propane provided, as well as a bonfire pit, a canoe and kayak, and several floating devices.

This cottage is rented from Saturday-Saturday during the summer months, check-in at 4pm, and check-out at 11am. Flexibility on minimum day bookings may be discussed for the months of May, June, September and October. Looking forward to hearing from you. There is flexibility in check-in times for the winter months.

Wonderful cottage for family vacation
This cottage met all of our expectations. For a multi-generational family getting together for a summer vacation, it was nice to have different places to congregate around the property. The proximity to Westport was great, and the weed-free swimming off the dock was excellent. Lee-Ann was extremely responsive. We would return.

Family Retreat
The description and details in the listing are accurate and did not disappoint. There is lots of room with multiple levels and lots of seating. The covered porch is great for those wanting to relax, enjoy the view and have a reprieve from the sun (or rain) while still enjoying the outdoors. The lower deck with table and umbrella allows for a great view of the water while enjoying a light snack or reading. The dock is a great size with a sturdy ladder. The water is clear and deep - perfect for swimming and floating. Shoreline is rocky so best to just jump in! Made full use of the canoe - life jackets on site but best to check your size. Enjoyed the enclosed sunroom with large table for meals. Appreciated the air conditioner on humid days. Lee-Ann is prompt to respond to any questions.

Relaxing & beautiful!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at your cottage! It has a very tranquil & picturesque setting. It was awesome and unexpected to see deer wandering along and crossing the road to your cottage! There are so many spots to sit & watch the beautiful views of the waterfront. Our favourite spot for morning coffee was the sun porch...with the windows opened it was so relaxing to hear the sound of leaves rustling in the breeze, birds singing, and the loons calling. We also enjoyed the great views from the lower deck & being right at the water’s edge on the dock. Everything was clean & well cared for. Lee Ann was prompt in replying to any questions we had. The kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed. The bed was very comfortable & the internet access was very good. We would definitely go back & would recommend it to others! Catherine & Dave

Upper Rideau Lake Cottage
The view from the cottage is very nice. It is a bit above the water which helps the view but the steps are a bit hard to climb. Inside the kitchen was just like at home. Lots of room and fully equipped. The table is a bit small for a cottage with 5 bedrooms including the bungee. The floating dock is great. We sat there quite a bit. The water was too cold in June to swim but it looked like it would be great for jumping off the dock. The water would not be suitable for toddlers to play in. Lee Ann was always prompt to reply. We would stay there again.

Great getaway
We had a lovely time at Lee Ann's place. The property is exactly as shown, with all the “mod cons” mentioned. Plentiful kitchen and bedroom necessities. Planned future improvements sound wonderful - e.g., air conditioning, a second bathroom. For us fast Internet and a strong cellphone signal are very important, and they did not disappoint. The views from both cottage and dock are nonpareils. Screened-in porch and lower deck are perfect areas to spend some time. We are planning a return in summer!

Beautiful retreat for a family holiday!
Excellent location, roomy and very comfortable cottage with all necessary amenities, very attentive host : a wonderful place to stay for a family. We would love to go back! One small suggestion: better management of garbage disposal at the end of stay.
