About this cottage rental
Swift Cottage is located in the quaint resort town of Oxtongue Lake, minutes from Algonquin Park's west gate. Enjoy this beautiful cottage with two stone fireplaces, gorgeous gourmet kitchen and an open-concept great room. You'll find a games room in the finished basement with slate pool table. The wood grand staircase leads to the third floor where you will find three bedrooms and two full bathrooms, including a spacious master bedroom with it's own private full bath. Across a small cottage road there is a private gated sandy beach area with dock for use by Swift Cottage guests exclusively. There is also a screened-in gazebo in the front yard off the deck. The Swift Cottage is located close to hiking and biking trails, and only a stone's throw from Algonquin Park. Take a paddle from the dock to the Ragged Falls for a short day trip. Enjoy the peace and tranquility of this four-season cottage. Great wilderness adventure is just out your door. Try canoeing, kayaking, mountain biking, hiking, fishing and swimming in the summer. Use the cottage as a base for day trips into Algonquin Park. In the winter enjoy cross country skiing and snowshoeing from the cottage or take a short drive to the many cross country ski trails in Algonquin Park . If downhill skiing is on the agenda take a twenty minute drive to Hidden Valley Ski area for some winter fun! Then head back to the cottage to warm up around one of the cozy two fireplaces.

10 / 10Outstanding·Aug 2025
We loved staying at this property. It was very well stocked, the location was perfect and we were able to have space for all of the family. Having the games room downstairs was great!!
10 / 10Outstanding·Jul 2025
Beautiful cottage with well appointed kitchen, appliances and very completely stocked kitchen. Lots of room for all to gather together or to find a quiet space if desired. Plenty of room on the back deck as well as on the dock. My family spent most of their time in the lake.
10 / 10Outstanding·Oct 2024
The cottage was beautiful and lots of character. A lot of spiders in the cottage but due to age and location I’m sure that is normal. A lot busier area than we though and we thought we were right on the water. In saying all that the dock was directly across
the road and was veryvnice
6 / 10Average·Jun 2022
Not aware that the property backed onto the main highway. Lots of traffic noise. Ceiling fans needed dusting and the bedroom windows cleaned. Screen door kept popping out. Deck chairs are old and need to be replaced. Couldn’t figure out how to use the keys. Thankfully we had the door code from the store. Also didn’t like bringing the bedding for 5 people. Covid isn’t spread that way. Lots of extra work I didn’t want to do on a vacation. Please review this outdated policy.
Overall we enjoyed the property.
