Cabin Getaway

A gorgeous new cabin nestled on a beautiful, private property, offering all the comforts of home in the great outdoors. There's plenty of space for the whole family both inside and out, with a lovely deck and fire pit perfect for evening relaxation. The property is incredibly peaceful, yet there’s plenty to do nearby—beaches, scenic hiking trails, charming restaurants, and shopping in quaint villages. The 1000 Islands cruise is only a half-hour away, and we enjoyed exploring the nearby towns around the region’s stunning lakes. Nature lovers will especially appreciate the wildlife—deer and various bird species were frequent visitors to the property. We highly recommend this place and look forward to returning soon. The owners are friendly, attentive, and clearly take great pride in their property and guests.

Lakes Mini Break

The property was perfect for our stay. We had driven from Niagara and was greeted by the owner who was warm, friendly and welcoming. Comfortable bedrooms, spacious living spaces, excellently equipped kitchen and outdoor facilities. The location was central enough in the lakes to provide access to other areas. Conveniently located near shops within ten minutes. Quiet, scenic and very comfortable. Would stay again.

Great Place

My wife and I plus 3 grandkids were here for a week. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. There was a nature preserve down the road with a 2.8 km hiking trail, helped tired the kids out. Westport, a town close by, had a really nice beach. The cabin had everything we needed. Dwayne was great to deal, would definitely stay here again.

This was our second time staying here. The place was super clean and well stocked to meet our needs. We spent lots of time on the porch listening to the birds and later spotted a deer on the property. Lots of fireflies too! We will be returning.

Great getaway place

We loved the location of the cottage - being on the main floor felt like sitting in the treetops; very peaceful. The cottage itself was spotless and very well equipped- home away from home. Everyone loved the campfire, with the firewood already provided! Dwayne was an amazing host and truly attentive to our needs - we felt truly spoiled!

Lovely Cottage Home in Nature

We had a group of six friends staying at this lovely cottage and we had a great time. The area in the cottage is quite secluded, but there is room to relax at the fire pit or out on the deck. The cottage has many spots to relax, lots of games to play, and the kitchen is well equipped to make any meal you need. Can't wait to come back!

A beautiful place!

We were a group of friends who got together to celebrate two birthdays. This cottage was perfect. It is secluded and surrounded by trees. It is well equipped for the kitchen, bedding, towels and beds. The terrace is beautiful with garden furniture and a bbq. The basement is perfect for relaxing. What can we say about our host, Dwayne? Kind, attentive, he is very quick to answer our questions. We thank him for the welcome. We will definitely return.

Dwayne was there to meet us and explain all the amenities. I and my two adult daughters had a wonderful, restful weekend. The beds were comfortable, the linens were new and fresh, and the setting was all that we needed in this newly built cabin. We would recommend it to anyone looking for a getaway in the midst of the woods.

Family vacation

Thank you Dwayne for sharing your lovely house. We all loved sitting out on the huge decks and enjoying the peace and quiet. Only issue the house is not handicap accessible. Otherwise loved it We traveled the area and the many locks, we could have spent all of our time there watching the process. My daughter-in-law even had a chance to turn the wheel to open the lock for the boats.

Wonderful summer stay.

I booked this beautiful property for my family to get away from the city and reconnect. We absolutely loved it. The space was clean and nicely equipped. Especially the kitchen, its important to us as we do cook quite a bit. The property is private and very quiet, just a short drive to cute little towns and Gananoque. The bunkbed is noisy/squeaky but all other beds were very comfortable. Highly recommend this property.

The cottage was so well designed with enough bathrooms and bedrooms to allow us for a comfortable stay. The host was very communicative and gave us a tour, answered all our questions and knew where things were in the vicinity in case we needed to access anything. My favourite part was every time I thought I needed a specific utensil in the kitchen and it wouldn’t be there, it was!! The host clearly thought of everything!

Beautiful, clean, and relaxing!

We stayed for three nights towards the end of August to celebrate my Mother’s birthday. 4 adults and two children. We really enjoyed spending time around the fire pit and hanging out on the deck. Dwayne was an excellent host and met us when we first arrived to show us around the place and was always a text/call away with any questions we had about the area. The cabin was well stocked and had everything we needed. Grocery and LCBO were a quick ride into town. We would definitely consider staying here again and would highly recommend to our family and friends!

What an amazing property!! The pictures do not do it justice.. it's so cozy and inviting; the owner has included so many little touches to make it truly feel lile a home away from home. The location is so peaceful and close to nature; there was a doe and her fawn right outsdie our window one morning and we could hear coyotes in the distance at night. The home is brand new and spotless! All the rooms are well equipped and very comfortable. We loved our stay and will definitely plan to go back again! The owner, Dwayne, has truly created a gem and was so helpful and easy to contact.. one of the best places we have ever stayed.

About the host

Hosted by Dwayne

We built Jackson's Ridge for people to come and enjoy.
Our family loves spending time there and we wanted to give others the opportunity to to do the same.
When guests come to stay and they enjoy the time there we know we have shared something special with others.

Why they chose this property

The Rideau Lakes area is beautiful with so much to offer, the many lakes and
the peaceful rural area it's a great place to escape to and enjoy.
So much to do and see and if you just want to relax there is peace and quiet as well, this area has it all.

What makes this property unique

Our cottage/log home built in 2021 is located in a quiet forested area near the Rideau Lakes. The cottage sits high on a hill looking into the trees.
This is a very peaceful and quiet location, where you can spend time with family far away from the hustle and bustle of daily life. Lounge on the 38'x10'deck and the12'x12' covered porch where you can sit and enjoy the sound of the birds and watch the deer that frequent the property.
Inside the cottage is a comfortable living space with well equipped kitchen & dining area, 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms gives up to 8 guests plenty of space.
If you like to explore there are plenty of small towns near by with quaint shops and easy walking, also plenty of lakes to launch a boat and hiking trails for the casual or experienced hikers. Groceries, drug store and LCBO within 5 min drive.
The area has some great food available from local takeout restaurants to fine dining and local winery's.
A short 30 min drive to Gananoque and the 1000 islands and Casino,
40 min to Kingston, 90 min to Ottawa. makes this a great location.
The fall and winter is a wonderful time of year to be at the cottage the beautiful scenery with the leaves turning or the snow on the trees is spectacular.
Snowmobile the Cataraqui trail, 5 min from the cottage or go ice fishing on one of the many lakes in the area.
It's your choice to rest and relax, make some food to enjoy with family and friends, or go and explore, you can do it all at Jackson's Ridge.
