Beautiful Log Cottage on Historic Mattawa River (Lake Chantplein)

Escape to a warm and welcoming waterfront log cottage on Lake Chantplein, part of the historic Mattawa River Heritage Waterway. Surrounded by tall white pines and blessed with peaceful southern exposure, it is the kind of place where mornings begin with coffee on the dock, mist rising off the water, and the sound of loons in the distance.

Beautiful Log Cottage is ideal for couples, small families, and quiet getaways with friends. It sleeps up to 6 guests in 3 sleeping spaces: a king bedroom, a queen bedroom, and a separate sleep cabin with a queen bed for added privacy. The main cottage features a bright great room with a wall of windows overlooking the lake, a full kitchen, one bathroom with shower, a sun porch, propane fireplace, Wi-Fi, Netflix, good cell service, and board games for relaxed evenings indoors.

Days here can be as active or as restful as you like. Swim, paddle, read in the shade, enjoy meals outdoors, barbecue with family, or roast marshmallows under a sky full of stars. The cottage offers the privacy and charm of a true Northern Ontario retreat while remaining close to the conveniences of town.

The Town of Mattawa is just 5 km away, with groceries, pharmacy services, hospital care, restaurants, golf, a museum, and friendly small-town hospitality. Samuel de Champlain Provincial Park and the surrounding area offer easy access to nature, local history, and outdoor adventure.

Guests consistently praise the cottage for its cleanliness, comfort, and relaxing waterfront setting. It is a favourite with repeat guests seeking swimming, paddling, and quiet time by the lake. Whether you are planning a summer holiday, a couples’ escape, a family stay, or simply a few peaceful days by the water, Beautiful Log Cottage offers an easy and memorable getaway in the Mattawa area of Northern Ontario.

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.

Every detail was covered for this excellent getaway

We enjoyed an excellent week at this stellar log cabin cottage. The owners covered every detail and they were extremely responsive when we had questions. Despite some rainy days, there was still lots to do including the games that are supplied and Netflix for the teenagers. The only downside to this trip was having to leave.
