Rose was an excellent host. Her property is beautifully renovated and exceptionally clean. The cottage made for the perfect weekend getaway. The paddle boards, kayaks and hammocks were our favourite part of our stay. We would recommend this place to anyone.

Quiet Lakefront getaway

This was a very clean unit, well stocked with all kitchen and bath items. We were able to use the kayaks to explore the lake and the waterfront setting was lovely. Lots to do in the area as well.

Our stay at the cottage was fantastic! The place had everything we needed for a comfortable and relaxing getaway. The host was incredibly friendly and attentive, ensuring we had everything to enjoy our time. The cottage itself was clean, cozy, and well-equipped, and the lake was absolutely stunning. We especially loved having access to kayaks and paddleboards — it made our time on the water even more memorable and fun. Would absolutely recommend this place for anyone looking for a peaceful lakeside escape!

A beautiful place to stay

The house was very clean and a very comfortable living space. Sitting on the dock surveying the big lake was lovely and the spacious yard has hammocks, a firepit and lots of pretty fireflies at night! We enjoyed having campfires in the backyard and there were kayaks available if we had wanted them as well. Nice hiking in the area too! Thanks again Rose!

Enjoyed my stay here. The cottage is newly renovated and was spotless. Very nicely decorated with kitchen that was fully stocked with everything you would need to cook a meal or bake a cake. Situated right on the water with a dock to sit on and enjoy the peace and quiet. Will definitely stay here again.

Tranquil getaway

Very clean and only 10 minutes to the heart of Perth. Many possibilities for hiking, kayaking, paddle boarding, fishing and swimming. Also, a super place to just sit on the dock or patio and watch the day pass by.

About the host

Hosted by Rose Zeidan

Host profile image
Nature lover, find tranquility by the water side. People's person, active, happy and always available to land a hand. You'll find me kayaking, fishing, or hiking, and I love photography.

Why they chose this property

I fell in love with Rideau lake - Perth when I was invited by a friend to spend a weekend at her cottage. That's when I decided to move into this area. My place is located on a private road, calm, shaded by beautiful maple and cedar trees. Enjoy reading a book in the hammock or on the dock. Here the only sound you'll hear are the chirping birds.

What makes this property unique

I offer adult oriented environment, whether be very active, or just sit by the water side, read a book and relax. Fishing is great at the Rideau Lakes, some of the species are Rock Bass, Northern Pike, Large and Small Mouth Bass, Crappie, Walleye and Lake Trout. Kayak and Stand up paddle boards are available on site. Our dock fits boats up to 20 feet, welcome to bring and dock your own boat. A short drive from our oasis, you will find many hiking trails including the following:
⦁ Perth Wildfire Reserve: A well-treed, loop trail to a lookout with a great view of the Tay Marsh. It is a 3km, easy route with lots of birds to see along the way.
⦁ Sylvan Trail at the Murphy’s Point Provincial Park: A 2.5 km loop that leads you through a mature, mixed forest community with a rugged landscape.
Perth offers also many grocery stores, pharmacies, Dollarama and a variety of restaurants and breweries. Our favourite gems in the area include the following:
⦁ Best Mexican Food: Mex & Co
⦁ Best Burger and Poutine: T’s Chips
⦁ Best Baked Goods: Coutts Coffee Roastery & Cafe
⦁ Best Specialty Chocolatier: Perth Chocolate Works
⦁ Most scenic restaurant: CC’s on the Rideau
A short 4 minute drive to the Port Elmsley Drive-In Movie theatre. More details on their page: Port Elmsley Drive-In
