About this cottage rental
Zoe’s Lagoon is a sweet retreat! Outdoor enthusiasts will appreciate this peaceful hidden gem
Howe island is popular with cyclist, kayakers, fisherman, bird watchers and those escaping the hustle and bustle of city life
Howe island is located on the St. Lawrence river at the western entrance of the magnificent 1000 islands between the historic city of Kingston and gem of a town, Gananoque ❤️
Plenty to see and do in both for everyone’s taste from boat cruises, 1000 islands playhouse, outdoor concerts, Kingston prison tours, Ft. Henry visits, golfing, breweries, many excellent restaurants………..
You’ll love Zoe’s Lagoon for it’s sweeping St. Lawrence river views from various pretty points on the property and in the cottage.
Swimming is superb with shallow entry, mix of sand and rock shoreline. Children love the sand and building inukshuks.
This charming 900 square ft cottage is under an acre and just steps away from the waterfront.
Peaceful setting, surrounded by mature trees for privacy. Imagine falling asleep to the sound of the wind and waves. Set away from the main road = no traffic noise, minimal light pollution. Perfect for moon and star gazing. Beautiful sunrises and sunsets.
Enjoy an abundance of birds and wildlife like otters, minks, blue herons, loons, swans, osprey, deer, owls, fox, racoons.
There are 3 hammocks, outdoor benches, 7 Adirondack chairs, 2 fire pits, 2 kayaks, 1 paddle board(use at own risk) Recommend bringing own life jackets and water shoes (old adult LJ for use)

Great location to enjoy the water. Josephine was very helpful and provide me with updates on the status of the ferry and moon rising over the river.

We spent a week here in late June 2025. The place is private and surrounded by nature, with many trees for birdwatching and relatively few neighbours. The house itself is well kept, everything worked as expected and was clean. The highlight is the sunken sitting area with lots of windows overlooking the trees and waterfront. The waterfront has a sandy beach with easy access for swimming. No dock, so not a place one would bring a boat to, but this wasn't an issue for our group. We canoed up and down the shore, with multiple sightings of fox, deer, bald eagles, cormorants, herons, loons, and mink. Definitely a place we will consider coming back to!
