Cottage vacation rentals in Gananoque Lake

The cabin and its surroundings are absolutely beautiful, and Mark and Tayler are amazing hosts! I came for a weekend of peaceful relaxation, and I couldn’t have asked for a better setting. The small touches (like a wood stove set up with kindling, bird feeder food ready to use, vinyl collection with stereo ready to play) made the visit feel truly magical. I can’t wait to visit again!

Girls weekend here was fantastic! Very comfortable and clean cottage. Beautiful views. Love the large deck, enclosed porch and big kitchen. Would definitely book again.

This place is such a gem. Attention to detail and comfort was incredible. Our girls’ weekend was perfection. The sauna is a must, the view from the hot tub is gorgeous (even in an icestorm), the pottery for coffee was stunning, the beds were soooo comfortable, loads of towels for all of our spa activities, heated floors and a stellar Woodstove. The only problem is that with all of these amenities, you don’t want to leave to explore the area… that’s why next time we will book a longer stay! Thank you Ken and Rachel for this little slice of heaven.

Had a wonderful stay! Cottage was very well appointed, comfortable and clean. Grounds were beautiful, it was like being in your own mini private resort. Look out for an otter swimming back and forth in the lake-super cute! Alison was great to communicate with and made us feel very welcome. Loved it!

I'll admit, based on the reviews our expectations were high. They were exceeded in nearly every facet of our stay. We desperately needed ( election fatigue) to get away and have a week of peace, quiet, and serenity. Danielle and Jorden's home was perfect. there was not one single time while staying there that we looked for something that didn't exist. The bathrooms and kitchen are fabulous, and all are very well appointed. The radiant floors in the ensuite bath were a nice touch. The location is ideal, you are right on the lake with wonderful views from both inside and out, and despite having neighbors, it feels incredibly private. We had one small mechanical issue which Danielle took care of immediately. they were a pleasure to speak with, and their response time was always nearly immediate. The locals were incredibly friendly, the supermarket is just across the lake, and there's a nice dog park for those bringing their fur babies. We look forward to a returning to this ideal spot.

Ziad was very responsive. We normally stay in hotels because my daughter goes to school at St Lawrence but we found this to be a much better option. The place was neat clean and tidy and my wife my mom and I enjoyed the stay . Would 100% book with Ziad again .

Great host! Easy to communicate with and accommodating. Beautiful stay right on the water. Big, spacious, clean house with a well stocked kitchen. Very much enjoyed our stay and would do it again. Thank you!

We loved our stay at this gorgeous lakeside home. It was beautifully decorated and clean, with great facilities (firepit, hot tub, games room, pedalo), a well-equipped kitchen, and comfy beds. Also a lovely, quiet location, but not too far from Kingston. We'd definitely come back again.

Second stay here, Great as usual. Great hosts, very attentive. Couldn’t recommend more.

We had a perfect winter getaway and would be back anytime. The description and pictures shown are accurate, it’s actually more beautiful in person. Loved how well-equipped the place is. From everything you might need in the kitchen&bathroom to the beautiful and thoughtful touches like the inside swing and the coffee table books, games, movies, an array of pillows and blankets to choose from and comfy beds. This place felt like home as soon as we walked in. The surrounding area is beautiful and peaceful and feels private even with the neighbouring houses. The sauna is breathtaking and a luxurious addition. We couldn’t have asked for a better host. Caroline was so kind and responsive and graciously extended help during a bad ice storm that happened during our stay. We would come back, 10/10. Thank you for a memorable stay.

Second time coming staying at Sam’s. Just as magical and peaceful as before. Can’t wait to come again next year.

We rented this place over the long weekend and just loved it. Robert was a very response host. Everything was perfect. Very spacious place with everything you could possibly need. Very close to town, grocery store and sight seeing. Would definitely recommend and will be going back.

Diane was a very helpful and delightful host. She was very accommodating, as we had a boat and she was very flexible about our time constraint. We would definitely stay there again.

It was a very comfortable and clean place to stay. It is situated in a quiet rural neighborhood with a great view of the water. We found the location to be very peaceful and relaxing. The owner stayed in constant contact with us to make sure that our needs were being met. All in all, it was a great place to spend a few weeks.

Beautiful and peaceful location right by the lake surrounded by trees. Host was kind and responsive, cabin is older but functional and has everything you need. The view from the balcony overlooks the lake and you can enjoy your meal there or have barbecue. There is also direct access to the lake and you can use the motor boat and the canoes. We were here in the fall with our two dogs and really enjoyed the colors on the trees. Be aware that there are ticks and if you bring a dog, they absolutely need to have protection against ticks. Would recommend to those who appreciate nature and are not looking for luxury but a cozy cabin experience.

My family of 5 stayed over Labor Day weekend and really enjoyed our time at The Crescent Cottage. The location and views of the bay are spectacular. Shirley has many thoughtful touches throughout and my kids enjoyed the s’mores. We brought a boat and launched at the nearby state park and enjoyed the bay. We tried some fishing, wading in the water, and my youngest caught crayfish along the shoreline and even saw a salamander. Very quiet, friendly community and we enjoyed our morning and evening walks. On a rainy day we took a day trip to Alex Bay to take a boat tour and visit Boldt Castle. Some good wineries in the area as well (Coyote Moon in Clayton is my fav). A nice mix of old and new bring this quaint cottage its charm. Thanks, Shirley!

Honestly the photos don't do this place justice. The cottage is absolutely fantastic, new and clean, with nice furniture, full kitchen, beautifully decorated and very cozy. It has everything you can think of for a comfortable stay, the host is communicative and polite, the instructions are simple, and the check-in was easy. Would 100% stay again, location is great too, tons of hiking spots within 1-2hr drives. Tiny things that could maybe be improved: the shower water pressure was pretty low, and the internet was not great, if you expect to work and have video calls, esp on the second flood - I wouldn't rely too much on the wifi. Sometimes it takes 30-40 seconds to load a content-heavy website.

Courtney's place is a really beautiful location. It was the nice and cozy get away we were looking for.

Our family of 4 really enjoyed our stay during the last week of August! Some of our favourite parts of the place include: the canoes/kayaks that were available to use at our leisure, the check-in process being seamless, the essentials being provided (all kitchen supplies, beach towels, shower supplies), the other amenities (board games, BBQ). The place itself is quite beautiful. The dock with the chairs, the fire pit (even though we did not use) and the solarium were all stunning. I would just mention that it is a bit smaller of a place inside, so did find it a bit cozy and tight in the rooms. Also, the place is supplied with quite a loud window AC so sometimes it would get a bit loud/warm in the place. However, we would still give the place a 5/5 all things considered.

I would recommend Julie's place to everyone, the location and the lake view was beyond amazing. The house was clean, the host was super responsive when a small alarm was triggered by the tank level, and they even refunded me for one day because of the alarm (I didn't really expect this as it didn't really cause me any trouble.) I would definitely go back to this place.

Absolutely spectacular. Hidden gem! If you are looking for something private but still within a 15-20minute drive to groceries this is the place to stay! You won’t be disappointed. Comfortably holds a family of 6! We had an absolute blast! Stunning property and open concept cottage. Lots of natural light and gorgeous view from the living room! The dock and wrap around deck were absolutely beautiful to enjoy for sunrise and sunset! 2 hour drive to Ottawa and 2 hours to Gatineau National Park! Highly recommend the drive into Gatineau park! And Pink Salmon trail! If you have fur babies, this park is very restricted due to the sensitive eco system! Really cute shops and restaurants in downtown Ottawa and in Gatineau Park! We absolutely will be coming back (: Thank you Rachael for being an incredible host! Very responsive to requests and very accommodating !

Ellen’s place was so clean and inviting. I didn’t want to leave! The beds and couches were comfortable and the view was amazing. Definitely recommend staying here!

Perfect place to unwind - beautiful setting, great amenities (kayaks, canoe, SUPs) and thoughtful host

Rosemarie’s place was a delight - beautiful view of the water and the cabin itself was the perfect size. Plenty of boats to choose from and many places to lounge outside. Close to Kingston, but far enough from the city for peace and quiet.
