About this cottage rental
Welcome to the Gold Coast of Harsens Island, where front-row views of the South Channel create a truly rare waterfront experience. From the enclosed porch or riverside deck, watch international freighters glide past just yards away—an impressive and unforgettable backdrop that sets this home apart from other island locations.
This meticulously maintained riverfront cottage offers a relaxed retreat, perfect for those seeking tranquility, adventure, or both. Enjoy sweeping 180-degree views of sunrises, river traffic, and open water. Spend your days swimming, fishing, or boating, with protected canal docking available for boats up to 28 feet and easy access to nearby beaches and premier watersports areas.
As evening settles in, gather around the riverfront fire pit and enjoy the quiet power of freighters passing under the stars.
Inside, you’ll find warm hardwood floors, a fully equipped kitchen, comfortable sleeping accommodations for up to 8, air conditioning, washer/dryer, and modern entertainment amenities. Every detail is designed for comfort, cleanliness, and effortless vacation living.
Additional Information: City water with excellent pressure. Boats must clear three bridges in the canal; nearby transient docks are available if needed. The area is renowned for seasonal fishing and duck hunting, with sheltered waters available even on windy days.

Very charming. The view of the river in Canada and the ships was wonderful. The picture showed a shady front porch. There was no shade made it very difficult to sit outside in the morning at because of the beautiful sunshine in your eyes. They need a umbrella or some thing. The kitchen table needs to be sanded down and re-done. I am so happy I had a tablecloth because the table is not in good shape. The bridge needs maintenance quite badly. Nails are popping out. A paint job would improve a lot. A broken basement window creates a bad impression as you go in and out the door. The kitchen is well stocked and maintained. The TV is very good. Lots of games and things to do.
