Take off to Algonquin Park’s north west corner for a weekend of scenic canoeing combined with a comfortable lakeside chalet suite. Enjoy three to six nights accommodation with solar power, wood fireplace, deck and BBQ.
Located on beautiful Kawawaymog Lake at Algonquin park access # 1, this chalet suite or cabin is a great base to explore nearby islands by canoe or paddle down and fish the Amable du Fond river. Hike the lookout trail or just relax with a good book on the dock or in front of the fireplace.
Each cabin suite has two bedrooms (one with double bed, one with bunk bed), one bathroom (with shower), a fully equipped kitchen, living room with wood stove/fireplace, dining room table and deck with BBQ.
Try a weekend in the quiet seasons of spring or fall. May and September are usually gorgeous with warm days and cool nights. The water is cool but you can heat up in the floating sauna and take a plunge into the clear cool water! Early June is buggy but the last two weeks are the best time to see wildlife! For the best fall colours, come visit in late September and early October.
3-6 nights chalet suite accommodation, use of a canoe and the floating sauna.
Paddling is the # 1 reason to cone for a cabin and canoe adventure. Explore Kawawaymog Lake, or head down the Amable du Fond River. Spring is ideal to paddle the South River and fish for trout.
The chalet suite is solar powered and comfortable. The off the grid location is ideal for a real wilderness getaway. Wifi is available for an additional cost.
Cook up a storm in a well equipped kitchen. Cook outside using a BBQ or the firepit. Don't feel like cooking? Add on catered meals or book a meal at the Broken Paddle Patio, 1km away , at the top of the lake.
Stand up Paddle boards, kayaks, fishing equipment and much more are available to rent from our outfitter at the top of the lake.

“The cottage was lovely, warm and cosy, especially when we were sitting on the big squashy leather sofas in front of a roaring fire. We loved seeing the beaver on his dam, meeting the seniors who overtook us on the river and chilling to the call of the loon. “
