About this cottage rental

Osprey Landing, a classy Craftsman cottage is located in the Halstead Bay conservation area of the beautiful Thousand Islands. Here you will have unlimited access to all the Thousand Islands has to offer. Here you can relax and experience the diverse wildlife of this incredible area such as osprey diving for fish, bald eagles, loons, great blue herons, Trumpeter swans, Canada geese, ducks, and mink. The fishing is excellent for bass, Northern pike and perch. Boating in the Thousand Islands is unparalleled for both motor boats, canoers and kayakers. Explore the many Thousands Islands Park Islands in your own boat or take a big boat tour, with options to see such attractions as the Ivy Lea Bridge, Boldt Castle and Singer Castle. We have a boat to pick you up and also take you back to the Mainland-less than 1 km across Halstead Bay to Misty Isles Lodge where you have parked your vehicle. Close by, there is lots to do, with easy access to the Thousand Islands Parkway paved bike path or hike the nearby Landon Bay trails. Gananoque is ~4 km down the 1000 Parkway, where you can get groceries and supplies, check out the local restaurants, or head to the Harbour Front
and Public Marina downtown with restaurants, the Boat Museum and Store, or check out Gananoque's wonderful Summer Theatres. When you have finished exploring, text us and we will pick you back up at Misty Isles Lodge. Then you can relax and take it easy at Osprey Landing in the middle this natural paradise. Go for a swim and catch a few rays on our big private sandy beach. After dinner, enjoy watching the sunset from the porch or dock, and then S'mores cooked on the open fire.

Your Island sanctuary is fully equipped with a full kitchen, including dishwasher and laundry. The master bedroom with cathedral ceiling has an incredible view of the river. The living room has river views on 3 sides and boasts an oversized couch with queen size memory foam pull-out side sleeper. The loft has 2 single beds and is suitable for children or adults that can manage climbing a ladder.

The front porch has a cafe table and 4 chairs where you can enjoy the panoramic view of the river.

There is also a BBQ gas grill at the kitchen deck.

In front of the Main Cottage, you will have full access to the big sandy beach over 25 meters wide , which is great for the kids to play on, easy access for swimming , and snorkling with swimming masks and flippers available.

We had a wonderful stay on Hog Island. During the entire week, we left the island only twice - once for a sightseeing cruise and once to explore Gananoque and pick up groceries. The beautiful natural surroundings, with swans, geese, and ducks, along with the fresh air and peaceful water, quickly put us in a relaxed and healthy state of mind.The guest house was very comfortable and had everything we needed. We enjoyed kayaking, canoeing, swimming, fishing, playing games, reading, and simply taking in the serenity of the island. Since there were only two of us, the one-bedroom house provided more than enough space.Everything worked perfectly, and Steve and Alex were warm, welcoming, and very hospitable hosts. We highly recommend this property to anyone who appreciates nature, peace, and a truly relaxing getaway.

We stayed in the Lawrence's guesthouse for a long weekend in June and had the most wonderful time swimming, paddle boarding, lounging in the hammock, reading in the yard, and going to town for dinner. (Steve was great about taking us to shore any time we wanted.) A bald eagle soared over our heads while swimming, an osprey and white swans with their signets were on display on our boat rides, a great blue heron hung out on the dock, and we loved watching a Canadian goose couple shepherd their 9 goslings around the yard for hours on the one day that it rained and we were inside playing games and watching movies on Roku. The wind on the water can be a bit chilly when the sun is not "hot" hot--at least in June-- but a large fallen maple tree that is still growing on the ground(!) provided a wonderful wind break that allowed us to stay outside in the sunshine even when the wind was too much in the yard. The beds are comfortable, the kitchen is fully functional, and the house was very clean. Just make sure to bring some warm clothes with you too (at least in June). The nights are cool and when the sun is not shining brightly the breeze can be a bit chilly.

Wonderful stay in the 1000 Islands. Absolutely relaxing and a wonderful host. Beautiful views, great kayaking and exploring the surrounding communities. Recommended for anyone seeking to unplug for a few days.
