About this docked boat rental
Enjoy this spacious houseboat by leaving it at the dock and treating it as your cottage and play on the nearly half-acre property. Have a campfire. Play frisbee. Try the kayak and paddle-board. Swim at the public beach directly across the river. Take a short drive to any number of beautiful small towns nearby, like historic Merrickville or Manotick or Kemptville. It's only 30 minutes to downtown Ottawa and the Parliament buildings, too.
OR, take the houseboat for a cruise if you have a Pleasure Craft Operator's Card, which is easy to obtain if you don't have one already. Cruise for as little as $300/day off-season! There is no better way to see the region than from this UNESCO World Heritage waterway! See the historic Rideau Canal, and go through the still-hand-operated locks like it was 1850! There is no end to the possibilities!
This property is friendly to pets under 50 pounds, with a maximum of two pets. A pet fee of $50 per stay applies.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay on the houseboat! We were in Ottawa bringing our son back to University and decided to extend our stay and enjoy a few extra nights and have a getaway weekend. Everything was spotlessly clean and in excellent working order. We had everything we needed to host a dinner on the dock with friends too. Thank-you

We had a fantastic stay and couldn't have asked for better weather. We came equipped with everything we could think of and we hardly needed any of it because most of it was already provided. Having the ice cream boat roll up to our dock to serve us was the cherry on top of the literal sundae, thanks again, Trevor!

We had a wonderful time! The houseboat is super well equipped (everything we needed in the kitchen, life jackets, kayak, paddle board, games, etc.) and very comfortable. We were six adults and had plenty of room to move around and were able to sit around the table for meals and nightly cribbage games. The bathroom is full size and had no problems heating up the water in the hot water tank for showers using the battery/solar panel when we could not dock where there was electricity. We navigated to the top of Jones Falls without issues. The owner was very pleasant and accommodating, he took the time to explain all the features of the houseboat and answer our questions. It was a very pleasant experience allowing us to discover a nice area of the country.

Trevor was very accommodating! We enjoyed watching turtles, ducks, muskrats, and even a heron! The boat was very cozy. We had a fantastic week of exploring Ottawa!
