About this property

Rustic Cabin on 17 acres of wilderness-1000 ft waterfront w/Ottawa Valley view

Enjoy a real Canadian experience at our cabin in the woods. Our cabin overlooks the Ottawa Valley and Muskrat Lake. Have a bonfire and enjoy smores while taking in the amazing view cliffside. We have two fire pits, one on the cliffside and one by the bunkie. Our cabin is very secluded and private on 17 acres of wilderness. We have lots of wildlife, for example: deer, raccoons, fox, bear, barn owls, bald eagle and many different birds with beautiful songs. Imagine hiking, snowshoeing or cross country skiing in your own backyard. Manicured trails are nearby if preferred. Our shoreline is 1,000 feet and rocky with deep warm water. Enjoy diving off the dock or try your luck fishing. Our lake has many kinds of fish... pike, bass, etc. Or just enjoy the privacy and quietness or a good book. Summer water toys include a big floating mat, many flitter boards, canoe and aluminum boat. We have lots of room to park your boat/ATV/snowmobile trailers. OFSC and OFATV trails are very close to our cabin! The ATV/snowmobile bridge to Quebec is 10 minutes away. In the winter there is a manicured skating trail only 15 minutes away through a beautiful forest. Come and enjoy the wood burning stove and the peacefulness and privacy of “The Rock”.
The cabin has a queen size bed on the main level with a double and single mattress in a shallow loft above. The bunkie has a double bed, a single bunkbed and a couch. There is also a couch in the main cabin.
Only 12mins from Walmart, Canadian Tire, Food Basics, liquor/beer, Quebec, fast food, gas and restaurants.
Our house rules: not suitable for children under 9, or persons with mobility issues, no smoking, no parties or events, pet friendly.
No smoking anywhere on property.

We want you to have a great holiday here!

Amazing stay
Stayed with my boyfriend for 5 nights and our stay was absolutely perfect! Everything about the property was gorgeous, the owners were great and prompt with replying. Close to town, which had a ton of stores to choose from. Will definitely be booking again next time we’re in the area!

Beautiful place, shame about the detritus in the woods and issues with the manager
The property, the back roads to the property, the view, and the lake and space by the lake are all amazing! The cabin is really lovely, too - once I got used to the water running into a bucket and needing to be dumped, I could have lived there. The fire pits were fun and it was great to be able to take the canoe out. There are lots of unfinished projects, metal detritus, etc all over the property which are eyesores and a shame in the woods. Laurie was great and brought me a couple things that were missing from the kitchen. Kevin however greeted us at arrival with complaints about how annoying/stupid past guests had been and didn’t answer important messages I sent, making me feel like I should stop asking questions. For example, the big foam floating mat at the dock had ripped, had huge protruding nails and was blowing away. He never did anything about it so I finally moved it myself and let him know - never got a response and sprained my wrist trying to move and secure it.

About the host

Hosted by Kevin Bowman

Host profile image
Hi, we are Laurie and Kevin Bowman. I am a newly retired RN. I worked the last 37 years in NICU in London Ontario and I so miss the babies! My husband, Kevin, worked as a professional event photographer, but now works part time blowing in spray foam insulation. We have 2 sons who are presently in college. We are "valley friendly" people and just want to make your holiday great!

Why they chose this property

This property is 17 acres of wilderness! Therefore it is very PRIVATE and QUIET. It's not unusual to wakeup in the morning and have a couple of deer outside your door. Deer are often seen in the early morning and at dusk along our 5km long private road leading into the cabin.

What makes this property unique

The view from the cliff/cabin is breathtaking! You are 150 feet above the lake and you look out over the Ottawa valley and Muskrat Lake. The cabin is cozy and warm with a woodstove. The OFSC and OFATV trails are only minutes away!
