Welcome to the legendary "Journeys End", a truly special waterfront retreat where timeless charm, remarkable privacy, and unforgettable family memories come together on beautiful Big Rideau Lake! Nestled within the highly sought-after O'Mearas Bay, this extraordinary 1.66-acre property boasts approximately 275 feet of exceptional waterfront, breathtaking sunsets, and a peaceful setting that feels worlds away from everyday life. Steeped in character and Canadiana charm, Journeys End is more than a cottage-it's a place where generations gather, stories are shared, and time seems to stand still. The enchanting log cottage anchors this one-of-a-kind escape, complemented by a charming sleeping cabin, a boathouse with additional living/sleeping quarters above, and a bunkie perched on the hillside.

Mature trees frame the expansive grounds, creating a remarkable sense of seclusion rarely found on such desirable waterfront. Spend sun-filled afternoons swimming, boating, or relaxing on the dock, then gather around the firepit as spectacular sunsets paint the sky. Excellent road access, ample parking, boathouse storage, and thoughtful recent improvements add everyday convenience while preserving the property's nostalgic appeal. Situated on the historic Rideau Canal system, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, Big Rideau Lake offers seemingly endless boating adventures and exceptional waterfront recreation. Located in the heart of the Rideau Lakes Region, approximately one hour from Kingston and Ottawa, with charming villages and towns nearby.
