Kid-friendly vacation rentals in Ottawa River

Beautiful place! We really enjoyed our time there.

Everything was perfect! The only small downside is that there is an apartment just downstairs and depending on where the people are, you can hear them talking easily. But otherwise, everything is clean, faithful to the photos. Easy communication with host. Thanks!

We stayed in this place for 7 nights, to attend a conference in Ottawa and to do some sightseeing in Ottawa and in Gatineau Park. The place was easy to find and completely matched the description. Don't get fooled by the (private entrance) door which looks a bit old - everything on the inside seems brand new! The bed was comfortable, the kitchen well equipped, and there was a deck to sit outside and enjoy the (big!) backyard. Transport to Ottawa was straightforward, by bus and train (hardly any waiting time). The Gatineau Park was a 20 min drive, though a little more in rush hour :-). And the hosts were very friendly and helpful! This is a good opportunity to stay in a big city and still experience a very quiet neighborhood.

We loved it and had a great time there. We were able to get a great nights sleep, enjoy the beautiful yard and the beautiful scenery. We would definitely stay there again and are already looking at dates later this summer. Thank you again Greg and Michel.

It looks just like the photos but better! Huge amount of space and spotlessly clean. The hosts are friendly and responsive, brilliant deal with what the place offers and service!!

This cabin was an absolute dream for our mothers' first visit to Canada! We were looking for something special, and this place exceeded all expectations. The location was ideal – a perfect blend of natural beauty and proximity to the city. What truly amazed us was how much more beautiful it was in person compared to the already great photos. The serene lake view, the perfectly stocked kitchen, and the immaculate cleanliness all contributed to an unforgettable stay. You can feel the warmth and care in every detail. The hosts were also fantastic, with quick and kind communication. They even helped us retrieve keys we'd accidentally left behind! We can't wait to return and highly recommend this incredible retreat.

We had a great stay at Lisa’s place. It fit the five of us comfortably with more than enough space. The neighborhood was quiet but still an easy walk to everything we needed. Whether you’re visiting for a weekend or a longer-term stay, it’s an excellent choice. Would absolutely book again!

We had an amazing stay here! The place was super clean, cozy, and had everything we needed. The backyard space and hot tub were a great bonus—perfect way to relax. The hosts were very responsive and made everything easy. Thank you so much Alden and Megan!

We loved everything about Natalie's home. My husband and I stayed there with our son and his girlfriend for 2 nights. It looks recently updated with a beautiful new kitchen, great appliances, really tasteful decor, a very contemporary shower, and spotless new furniture etc. Its very well equipped with thoughtful extras such as shower gel (though I do travel with my own) and lots of coffee pods. The house is bigger inside than we expected, and was very spacious for the 4 of us. The beds are super comfy and the area is really quiet and peaceful. We discovered an amazing cafe/bakery called Dao Cafe, just a short drive away with yummy croissants and cakes and excellent coffee, as well as lots of teas. Overall, we highly recommend Natalie's home if you prefer not to be in downtown Ottawa.

Responsive host, good instructions, fun neighbourhood, a little noisy but hey, it's a city, I chose that!

My friend and I had a wonderful stay at Marina's place. It's in a great up and coming neighborhood and very close to the river, which has beautiful, clean and safe trails that take you all the way downtown along the river. The apartment is exactly as described and very clean, with a very modern kitchen and bathroom. The bed is a little small (I thought it was supposed to be a queen but looked more like a double and unless you are cozying up to someone, it's not for 2 people). But there were extra sheets and blankets in the closet and the couch was also quite comfortable. The only strange thing which I didn't realize was that this apartment is a sectioned off portion of the main house turned into it's own apartment and the owner lives in the main house.

Bianca And Plamen were great hosts! We were on motorcycles and they weren't bothered, also pleased to see us as group , very helpful and greeted us well. Had all amenities nearby as well incase, which was really nice. I recommend them and best place for a quick Overnight stay before major Ottawa/Gatineau area events!

We had a great stay! The check-in and check-out instructions were very clear and easy to follow. The space was clean and comfortable, and the location was fantastic for what we needed. The bedrooms did run a little warm, but there were tower fans to help circumvent that and keep things comfortable. We would definitely stay here again!

This is a fantastic place with great and welcoming people. The neighborhood is incredibly peaceful, making it an ideal place to relax. The location is very convenient, offering easy access to the city, parks and other attractions. Whether you want to explore or simply enjoy a peaceful oasis, this place has it all. I had a great experience and would book again without hesitation! This is a fantastic place with wonderful and welcoming people.

Brenan's place was perfect for our one-week stay in Ottawa. It was clean, comfortable and convenient. Situated on a quiet street, it’s within easy walking distance to a grocery store (Loblaws), LCBO, restaurants and a shopping mall. The kitchen had everything we needed and Brenan was welcoming, friendly and generous, letting us use his BBQ so we could eat outdoors and enjoy his lovely backyard. We definitely recommend Brenan's place for a great west end location.

Dave’s place was amazing! Beautiful area and he was very responsive! Would definitely stay here again!

We rented both units for a family weekend and our adult children really appreciated their own space

Absolutely amazing stay! The place was right by the water and the views were stunning. Everything was clean, comfortable, and just as described. The atmosphere was peaceful, and the whole experience exceeded my expectations. Highly recommend — I’d love to come back!

The perfect little get away. The condo was super clean and updated, as well as homey/welcoming. Pino provided everything you could need. The view was beautiful. It was just what we needed for the best weekend.

10 out if 10. Can’t wait to get back to this home paradise! Thanks for everything

Everything was as advertised! Clean place and good location, I recommend!

Thank you for a great stay - my friends couldn’t stop raving about it for days afterwards!

Really enjoyed my stay in this beautiful, modern, spotless home. Thank you Tiffany for sharing your space with my dog and I. We loved walking the bike path conveniently located right in front of your house.

We were very well received, everything was perfect from start to finish. The condo is clean, comfortable and very well located. Thank you for the warm welcome. I recommend it without hesitating!
