The Pool Cottage

THE POOL COTTAGE

The four-season newly renovated cottage consists of baseboard heating and electric fire-place. For the warmer nights, a portable window AC is available to cool off. It is one of 2 cottages on the same property about 80 feet apart. Easy access to the pool just off the cottage deck with your own BBQ on deck with one full tank of propane (refills available at a charge). Picnic benches as well as seating area under a large gazebo with mosquito netting overlooking the pool and lake. It is a great way to relax and soak up the sun. **POOL WILL BE OPEN VICTORIA DAY WEEKEND TO LABOUR DAY**

The space
The outstanding view of the lake and the outdoor pool overlooking the beautiful upper Rideau is breathtaking. Gorgeous sunsets at dusk just from this cottage deck is something extraordinary. The quiet and relaxing atmosphere is something everyone should experience. There is a little bit of everything for everyone.

All guests must park in the designated guest parking
