About this property

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.

Beautiful Sunsets

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.

About the host

Hosted by Kevin & Laurie Bowman

Hi, we are Laurie and Kevin Bowman. I am a newly retired RN. I worked for 37 years in NICU in London Ontario and I so miss the babies! My husband, Kevin, worked as a professional event photographer, but now works part time blowing in spray foam insulation. We have 2 sons who are presently in college. We are "valley friendly" people and just want to make your holiday great!

Why they chose this property

This property is right on the BEACH! The water is shallow and warm with NO undertow to worry about, perfect for young families. The area is very QUIET. The cottage is on a private road so there is very little traffic. Also the water is between rapids upriver and downriver therefore next to no boat traffic. On a busy summer weekend there might be 8 people on the beach and you might see a pontoon boat go by! It's very peaceful. We supply the wood for the campfire and propane for the BBQ.

What makes this property unique

We have lots of toys! We have 2 standup paddle boards, 2 kayaks, 2 canoes, 2 boogie boards, a windsurfer, a HUGE floating mat and multiple floating boards. The cottage has games, puzzles and books for the whole family to enjoy.
