A great stay!

We had an amazing one week stay at Erika's property. The communications upfront was excellent and the information package answered any possible questions we had before arrival. We found the cottage to be very clean and tidy and well stocked with everything we needed for our stay - large bottled water, basic spices and more. The kitchen was extremely well equipped with plenty of dish and cookware and we loved hanging out in the screened in porch during the evenings and down at the dock during the day. We hope to be back the summer of 2026!

Big Rideau Lake Cottage

We had a lovely relaxing week. Took advantage of nearby Rideau Lakes Golf Course, Scheuermann Winery and the Tangled Garden Restaurant in Westport. The cottage was very comfortable, swimming was great and the location very easy to get to. Everything we were looking for!

Fantastic fall getaway location

The cottage was nice a cozy, convenient to get to, around a beautiful area of Ontario and on a fantastic lake. The cottage had everything we needed and was very comfortable. The property owner was very friendly and communicated everything that we needed to know for our arrival, stay and departure. The surroundings had beautiful fall colours everywhere, and the floating dock was a wonderful location to fish and to read a book. Very relaxing and enjoyable stay.

Awesome traditional cottage in Great Lake location!

Cottage was amazing - very well maintained, "traditional" feel to it (original fittings, kitchen etc.). Front screened porch was our favourite place to relax, with an excellent view of the lake. New dock was a great place for morning coffee, and bbq on the side deck with a lake view was also a nice touch. Views from nearly all windows, including master bedroom. Host Erika was very helpful and accommodating. Would recommend to anyone for a cozy lake-side stay.

Relaxing week by the lake

We had a week at Erika's cottage this fall and it was absolutely lovely. The cottage is beautiful, comfortable, spacious, the location is stunning, and the screened in porch was an absolute added bonus. We were also really delighted we could bring our cat with us, and that the screened in porch was there so she could safely enjoy the location too :-) All of the instructions, access, setup, and process for the cottage was clear and easy. Erika makes the experience seamless for guests to enjoy their time away.

Canadian Cottage Stay & Fishing Trip on Upper Rideau

Our family had a great week at Erika's property, experiencing a clean and welcoming cottage with beautiful views, plus friendly local neighbors! Visiting as a family of 6, with 2 little ones and a 4-legged friend, we had ample space in this sweet little cottage, with the fantastic screened in porch area being our favorite hangout spot. Not to mention, the thrilling fishing just steps away on both the dock of the property, and the boat we rented for the week from Norris Bait and Tackle. The kids had a blast! The shoreline of the lake offers many beautiful properties to not miss sightseeing. In addition to those things, and the tasty food in Westport (don't miss the Cove Inn!), Erika was the most optimal host! Prior to our visit, Erika was in contact with us, inquiring what would make our stay the most comfortable for us, and even after we were home, she was very responsive and accommodating of some things we had accidentally left behind. Overall a fantastic and memorable experience for our first visit to Canada!

Rideau lakes cottage

We arrived after a long drive, access was easy and the cottage had everything we needed. I very much appreciated being able to take my 2 dogs. 1 of our party saw a black bear on her way out early 1 morning. Stores and restaurants were very convenient and all in all we had a great week. Erika was super responsive when I reached out . Definitely would recommend

Relax and listen to the loons!

The opportunity to quarantine in Erika's cottage for two weeks was a gift from on high. The setting into which this charming stone cottage is nestled is both beautiful and peaceful. Waking to the sunrise over the deep blue lake and falling asleep to the call of loons made for a truly relaxing stay, with plenty of fishing, nightly bonfires, and reading on the screened-in porch in between. Everything you need to leave the stress of a pandemic behind awaits! Thanks, Erika.

Well-stocked and organised

My husband and I spent the last few days of May, beginning of June at this lovely cottage. Beware if you have mobility issues as there are close to 40 steps down to the lakeside dock. Erika has all the cupboards labeled, so no trouble locating kitchen supplies. When we had rain days, there were tons of boards games to keep us busy. Even watched Nadal beat Djokovic at the French Open on cable TV! Erika is a lovely host who will bend over backwards to help her guests. Only drawback for me was housekeeping. It is lackadaisical, but I'm a clean freak., so not up to my usual standards.

Well equipped family cottage.

Overall great week with lots of wildlife sightings (deer, loons, chipmunks and a mink), great fire pit on the patio and close to charming small towns to explore. Foley Lake Conservation area nearby has excellent hiking trails including a short and easy walk to an amazing view over Westport. Lake was slightly weedy, so swimming wasn't superb, but still good. Very well equipped kitchen with everything you could need, and a nice big frig. Lots of chairs and loungers for relaxing on the patio or the dock. Great selection of games and books. All you need for a fun and relaxing week.

Relaxing, cozy stay

Our family really enjoyed our stay here. Cottage is well appointed, and the outdoor set up is great. We brought our paddle boards so made full use of the dock and access to water. There is also a wonderful fire ring outside- we made lots of s’mores. Nice and quiet and beds were comfortable so all slept well. Family friendly hiking nearby at Foley Mountain.

Enjoyment of Nature

The location is peaceful. The views are spectacular. To truly appreciate the location, get out on the lake. Enjoy the deck, the dock, kayaking to see the loons, and swim. All meals on the patio, the sunrise morning coffee time and walks down the lane. The Foley Mt. hike and dinner at the Cove Inn were great!

Terrific Cottage on the Water

Thanks for the stay! Great firepit, fans in all the rooms, comfy couch and large table to entertain extended family for meals. Family with kids may want to rent kayaks, or pick up floaties to enjoy the water. Careful of the barnacles/mussels clustered in the shallow waters!

Great place to unwind

Had fun disconnecting from the day-to-day day even for just a little while. Perfect spot by the water. Nice property. We all loved the screened-in porch and the great fire pit. My teenaged daughters loved the dock for sunbathing, swimming and fishing. Loads of fish in the lake. Everything was exactly as advertised.
