L'Île-du-Grand-Calumet
Property description
Waterfront cottage on the sandy shores of the Ottawa River -- not in a flood zone, yet steps from the water. This open-concept retreat offers 4 bedrooms, 1.5 baths, and room to comfortably host large families. Soaring cathedral ceilings, reclaimed wide-plank pine floors, and floor-to-ceiling windows frame breathtaking sunset views. Entertain on the spacious deck, gather around the fire pit, or unwind in the screened-in sunroom. A true four-season escape with a tight-knit community feel -- ideal for families, outdoor enthusiasts, and anyone seeking a slower, nature-connected pace of life. Just 1.5 hrs from Ottawa.
