Help yourself to our hot chocolate bar with all the fixings (just bring your milk). Cozy up by the fire stove and unwind.

Here, you can truly embrace the season: skate or ski on the lake, winter walks in the snow, or simply slow down.

Savour the view from the deck, fire up the BBQ, stargaze from the dock, or enjoy the fully equipped kitchen, books, and games for quiet nights in.

Just 40 minutes from Ottawa/Gatineau with easy, flat parking.

No cleaning fees!

The space
Welcome to this charming vertical log cottage, beautifully renovated to blend rustic charm with modern comfort.

The functional kitchen provides all the dishes, pots and pans you'll need to cook up a meal among friends. Tea and coffee is on us!

A dedicated office corner with high-speed internet and a TV with Chromecast ensures you stay connected during your visit.

We hope you’ll unwind in the open living space or catch up on sleep in one of the three bedrooms (two doubles and one king). You can also use the pull-out couch for extra guests.

The property also offers ample outdoor space to enjoy the sun in the summer. Step onto the floating dock for a swim or paddle, and make the most of warm evenings with the BBQ and fire table on the spacious deck. The master den’s private access to the side yard gives you another option for gatherings around the firepit under the stars.

Conveniently located, you’ll find grocery stores, spas, hiking trails, beaches, and local shops—all within a 20-minute drive.

Experience the perfect blend of adventure and tranquility!

Guest access
You'll enjoy the entire lakefront cottage as well as seasonal access to the lake with a canoe, kayak and stand-up paddle board.

The basement is not accessible to guests.

Other things to note
There are a few steep and short steps inside the cottage between the living room, washroom and dining room.

Please use caution when using the outdoor stairs to the main door, especially when they are wet or icy.

The path to your water access is rugged, you'll need your shoes.

I'm obsessed with: Lake life
Speaks English and French
We love lake life and sharing its benefits with others. Starting with William and Boumy's vision, giving a new life to this little cottage has become a family endeavour for our younger and older kids.
