Welcome to our family Cottage. A place we love and share when we are not using it!
Our St. Lawrence River House is a year-round modern log home with breathtaking, panoramic views of the St-Lawrence River and incredible sunsets. We sit on 2+ acre. The property has a private dock and is a riverfront for water activities like swimming, kayaking, and fishing. The large backyard is a welcoming space for picnics, relaxing, and gathering. There are also two optional summer RV hookups for anyone who wants to bring their RV along. RV hookups will be closed for winter beginning SEP 29 till Memorial Day.
The home has an open floor plan, with 5 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. The gorgeous panoramic room has a sofa bed, armoire, blackout shades, and locking doors so it can double as a private sixth bedroom with dreamy views.
Our cottage has central A/C and Heating. Additionally, there is a functioning wood-burning stove for a nice touch of ambiance. The property is equipped with comfortable, modern furniture. Our automatic standby whole-house generator maintains power in all weather conditions. Amazing place for winter and summer stays!
No pets, no exceptions
The four-season room boasts over 22 feet of stunning wall-to-ceiling panoramic views. Wake up in the morning to the best view in the house.
Enjoy the sights from the house, balcony, huge yard, or dock.
Walk the property's trail down to the private dock stairs and swim in the clear water (in Spring/Summer). Bring your fishing poles and cast in the river while you watch the ships go by. For those who like to explore, the 126 feet of shoreline property includes some coastal tree hideaways for additional swimming and fishing.
The huge backyard slopes down from the house to a very large, flat grassy area with a fire pit, picnic table, and fantastic view of the river, Canada and sunsets. A large outdoor wood table with seating is provided. There is a half bath in the backyard camp with cornhole games, extra tables, and seats. The half bath is closed for winter starting SEP 29.
There is an additional downhill, short trail walk, and stairs to the dock. Walking up from the dock will provide exercise, so not recommended for anyone unable to walk uphill. See the pictures. There is an access driveway on the side of the house that leads directly to the backyard.
To obtain this incredible view, we are located on top of a hill. You can walk to and from the dock, or if you wish you can drive down partway and take the stairs to our dock. My parents (in their 80s), still walk to and from but this is not for everyone!
This is a great area for kayaks. We provide two paddle boards for anyone wanting to try this sport!
Docking here is at boaters' discretion. The water depth around the dock can be shallow (2-4ft), conditions can change throughout the season and we cannot verify boaters' experience. With that said, guests have docked their boats here. There are also nearby marinas along the river to consider for docking.
Hurricane Joe's Marina is 5 minutes drive down the road.
A nearby boat launch is less than a mile away on the same road, at Oak Point. There are other nearby boat launches along the river.
There are local boat and water sport rentals less than a 10 minute drive away.
There's a propane fire pit on the balcony and in the yard.
Our cottage furnishings include plush motorized reclinable sofas/chairs, with usb charging ports. Home Wi-Fi is included. Our lift-top desk has a window view so you can read or "work from home", with eyes on the horizon.
The master bedroom has a king bed. Bedroom number two has a queen bed. Bedroom three has a daybed twin set-... One twin bed with second twin bed pullout from beneath (trundle) The fourth bedroom has a queen bed. The fifth bedroom has two twin beds! The all season room has a full size sofa bed.
In addition to the Sun Room, there are two living room with TVs. The upstairs one has seating for many while the basement one is a quiet retreat for anyone wanting a little away time or a place for the kids to watch TV.
For our family, the cottage is about how many we can sleep and spend time with.
