Try golfing at the Mattawa Golf ‘n Ski Resort or take a guided nature hike at Samuel de Champlain Provincial Park. Or, simply enjoy the cottage - it’s your holiday!
Why Tina chose Ontario
We've loved this log cottage for years and when the owners decided to sell their much loved summer home, we were blessed to buy it for our children. It's still a few years away before they will use it, so we are renting it out so that it will still be enjoyed. One year, we spent Christmas day there as an ongoing tradition and we can't imagine a more perfect setting. What a treat! A wonderful family occasion with a roaring fire, board games, laughs and hot chocolate!
What makes this cottage unique
Nature at her best, white majestic pines, clean lake/river, privacy yet not far from town, swimming, canoeing, kayaking, fishing, peace & quiet, marshmallow roast, BBQ, history, museum, art gallery, hiking trails, good & inexpensive golf. And we could go on!

The Best Vacation In Years
This place far exceeded our hopes for place to reunite our family. My sons and I went fishing with great lucky. My wife won the fishing contest hands down just fishing from the dock. The cottage had everything you needed. The beds are great , kitchen has everything you need. All and all great place to relax and unwind.The owners looked after anything you needed. Thanks Tina and Wayne. We will be back again
Awesome Cottage
This is a very quiet cottage that is well equipped. We had an excellent fall week for weather and would recommend this cottage to anyone.
Perfect cottsge
We had an amazing time at this cottage, not as far away from the town as we thought which was very useful, and a very very nice town! Would recommend this cottage to a couple, as we were or to a whole family as we saw in the guest book that many families had already been. Great lake with a very nice community feel. Wish to be back soon if at all possible! 5 stars.
Happy to be back in Mattawa!
We were so pleased with our stay. It was 50/50 with rain/sun, but it was therefore even more important that we were content with our lodging - and we were! Any small concerns were dealt with promptly and the quick and friendly response time was very much appreciated. We would be quick to recommend this cottage to any of our friends. Thanks for everything, Tina!
This cabin is better than the pictures on homeaway.com
We enjoyed our stay at this Mattawa cabin, there were no complaints. The cabin was beautiful and situated on the Mattawa river/lake. The amenities were fine. It was nice to just step off the grid for awhile. Canoeing and kayaking was wonderful, the children fished, and the outdoor grilling area made me very envious. I would recommend this home/cabin to anyone.
Beautiful cottage
We had an amazing time staying here!!The hosts Tina and Wayne thought of everything to make our stay so enjoyable. We loved the welcome basket and all of the amenities- towels, fully stocked kitchen, water to drink, firewood for our first night and super comfortable beds. The view is incredible and we used the dock, boats, outdoor kitchen and fire pit every day. We would highly recommend this cottage for anyone looking for a peaceful and beautiful retreat!!!
