Sunset on the Ottawa "Cottage"- shallow, silky sandy beach w/ 78-84 F warm water

Welcome to soft sand, groomed beach, warm water (temp 27deg C or 81.6 deg F June 8/21) and spectacular sunsets on the mighty Ottawa River. Step out of the front door unto the shallow entry beach! We recommend water shoes for the odd clam. Our 4 season cottage has 4 bedrooms and 2 pullout couches. The bedding and pillows are provided. It has 2 bathrooms, a full kitchen with dishwasher, fireplace, high speed internet, TV, Netflix, Roku, DVD player, fire pit (we supply the wood), a large screened in porch covering 2 sides of the house, and a washer and dryer. Two kayaks, 2 standup paddle boards, 2 canoes, a windsurfer, HUGE floating mat, multiple flutter boards, and 2 boogie boards are also included. We are located 12 minutes from Food Basics, Canadian Tire, Walmart, Home Depot, Tim Hortons, LCBO, and The Beer Store.

There are plenty of things to do in "the valley". World class kayaking is just 10 minutes up the river! Go zip lining at Logos Land Resort or try whitewater rafting or kayaking. On a slower day visit the Bonnechere caves in Eganville. Trails for hiking, biking and ATVing are only minutes away from our cottage.

We are also open in the winter months. Manicured trails are close by to cross-country ski, snowshoe or skate. The OFSC and OFATV trails are only minutes away. The ATV/snowmobile bridge to Quebec is 10 minutes away. We have plenty of room to park your snowmobile/ATV trailers and ride the trails.

We have everything you need for an amazing holiday!

The kids and our dogs loved playing in the warm shallow water. Also loved going rafting nearby and that the town was close by…all in all a great family getaway.

Well-appointed family cottage
We stayed for two weeks at this comfortable and well-stocked cottage. Kevin and Laurie were great hosts who provided support and information while giving us privacy and respect. The cottage is located in a row of other vacation homes - the beach is shared. Usually everyone was respectful, but there were instances of loud "dune buggies" racing up and down the full length of the beach. Otherwise it is was a peaceful and pleasant experience.

Nice New Year 2022
I loved the quiet and peaceful location with the iced river shore where we walked and played with my dog. He loved the place I can tell for his smile. The sunset and fires were a nice warm hug for this challenges times where being around with your family and nature gave us exactly what we needed...

Wonderful weekend vacation
We stayed for 3 nights in October. Communicating with our host was easy and we had prompt responses both before we left and during our stay. The cottage was very clean with many bedrooms for privacy and relaxation. Open concept living room and kitchen was perfect for our two families to cook and be together. The cottage is well equipped with kitchen supplies. The screened in porch was lovely at night for playing board games, and we had dinner on the porch one night. We enjoyed the outdoor fire pit and going for walks. Plenty of couches, chairs and places to read, unwind and relax. Would book again.

Mostly as advertised
Note upstairs bathroom is sink and toilet, and downstairs bathroom is shower, sink and toilet. But privacy in shower and toilet is only via curtain from a passageway from L.R. to the downstairs bedrooms. A door would be much more appropriate.

Gorgeous summer sunsets
The cottage was a great set up for two families. The kitchen was very well stocked and we enjoyed BBQing. The hosts had a giant floating water mat that provided hours of fun. The water was the perfect depth for our youngest. Our oldest was wishing for deeper swimming water, but enjoyed the swimming mat a lot. I loved kayaking on the still water in the sunset. Having Pembroke nearby is very handy. We had a super time and a much needed gateway!

The Cottage Experience
Kevin and Laurie are new owners and amazing hosts of this property. They continue to update and upgrade this cottage which has lots of potential. We found that it had all of the comforts we needed, including excellent wifi for the teenagers! The beach is sandy, wide and shallow, water shoes are a must but the water is as warm as described. The kids loved the lilypad, kayak and SUP. The cottage also has a large fire pit which was perfect for family gatherings. The sunsets are beautiful and the stargazing is fantastic. Overall, we really enjoyed our week.
