TESTIMONIALS
"You've made the outdoors into a theme park" -J.D. (Germany)
"The lazy cabin will stay in our memories. My son loved the trampoline, the cabin bed, & the masks. It was convenient to stay in the woods but close to the city." -A.S. (Montreal)
"Thoroughly enjoyed our winter stay at the Lazy Cabin, nestled in the majesty of nature. Cabin is rustic with an artistic sensibility. The lake froze well enough for us to clear a patch and enjoy a skate. We kept the fireplace stoked, keeping us cozy and warm. Well kept roadways and trails in the area that offer a chance to hike with relative ease." -C.B. (Hamilton)
"Greg was a great host! The cottage is clean, and has a very original cottage vibe. It's only 20 minutes away from Ottawa so it was really convenient!" -K.E. (Toronto)

Air conditioned. Semi-private, quiet riverfront with large dock, small beach, & stunning river views is great for wading, swimming, fishing & boating. Canoe & kayaks, mountain bikes, 'Green Egg' BBQ, outdoor tent, 2x bonfire pit, trampoline, & WiFi also included.
AN ECO RETREAT
Our location is beautiful, isolated on a quiet peninsula jutting out into the Gatineau River, nestled amongst huge white pine trees. Riverfront to the north & east, pristine forest adjoins the property to the south & west.
The cabin incorporates a high-efficiency air source heat pump for heating & cooling, natural lighting from skylights set in a new R40 high-insulating roof, & makes great use of local materials & wood panel reclaimed from the cabin during the roof retrofit. There are plenty of operable windows, which allow for natural cooling at nights. Floors are a mix of reclaimed maple hardwood & beautiful slate & pebble mosaic in living room & bathroom. A reclaimed cast iron clawfoot tub allows for long baths. For colder nights, there is a high-efficiency wood-burning fireplace. A clothesline is provided for line-drying clothes the natural way, & there are municipal compost & recycling bin pickups.
There is also a classic 'Green Egg' barbecue for BBQing & smoking, and a conventional propane BBQ.
Guests will enjoy our herb garden & a 'forest garden' of berry bushes, fruit & nut trees. Lounge in a hammock & enjoy the flowers, wildlife, & forest garden!
OUTDOOR DETAILS
Our quiet waterfront area on the tranquil Gatineau river includes canoes, adult kayaks & kids kayaks with paddles, & lifejackets. Our beautiful dock lets you lounge in the sun on the river. Note that dock may be shared occasionally. Swimming in the river is fun, & kids can wade & play on our small sandy beach. Larger beaches are nearby at Meech Lake, Lac Phillipe.
The property includes patio seating, 2 firepits for bonfires, 2x BBQs, & riverfront picnic table.
The Lazy Cabin is great for families, with a fun treehouse, forest playground area, bouncy slackline & large trampoline - and don't forget the party raft for up to 10 kids at the riverfront!
