The cottage is on Lac Sinclair, about 1 hour from downtown Ottawa. 5 bedrooms available, sandy beach, comes with use of a canoe, paddle boat and kayak, fire-pit by the lake, BBQ in the screened in porch so no bugs for dinner, wood stove in the basement along with a pool table, kitchen has electric stove, dishwasher and double sink, Keurig coffee and a drip machine and a refrigerator, (second refrigerator on the porch). Dining room table seats 10 people very comfortably and we have had 14 or more people without too many elbows being bumped. There is 1.5 bathrooms, sorry, a shower but no tub (although there is a lake…), washer and dryer in the basement washroom. It is on a well, so the water is very drinkable without having to worry about boiling. It is a four season place, so it is open in the winter too if you want to rent it later in the year. The price is 1500$/week, but please give me a call and we can discuss winter rates. I am asking for a 500$ returnable damage/cleaning deposit. You will get that back as long as there is no damage, undue cleaning required or noise violations/fines. Of course there are others on the lake so I ask that you consider my neighbours and not create a nuisance after hours. I also want to keep the place smoke free, there is a walk out area that is covered so smokers will not suffer too much even in the rain... Xmas/ New Years and Thanksgiving I will likely have special rates, and by special I mean higher. There may be a few extras as well, like firewood will be 200$ a face cord if you use a lot for bonfires.
What else can I say for now, there is space to set up a badminton net, and horse shoes or petanque if you prefer (have to bring your own balls or shoes), and a good size area for parking if required. I added bocci balls and crocket sets this year. The municipality has a new bylaw that prohibits you using your own boats. I expect that will be the same anywhere in Quebec, if not now then soon. They do this to protect the quality of the lakes from invasive species.
For the winter, a little bit of a hill for tobogganing if you like. The lake does freeze over late in the season for snowshoeing and X-country skiing. Nice quiet location.
Satellite TV, free wifi. Recently added a Hot Tub.
Property is registered with both the municipality and CITQ, and has been inspected by police and fire department as part of that process so you know its safe. I even have an AED available on site!
I do not provide linens although I have some available if you are traveling long distances etc. We can discuss. I mention this here because there has been recent confusion with the website. If you do not see something specifically listed under amenities then please do not assume it is provided, ask the question of the owner.
Give me a call if you have any questions!
