Overview ↑↓
Cottage rentals are all about nature, privacy, reconnecting with family, evenings around a campfire, exploring the lake in canoes or kayaks, swimming…well, you get the picture - and from these pictures, we think you'll find Hersco Haus embodies all of this and more.
Located just south of Ardoch, Hersco Haus will put you in the heart of Eastern Ontario cottage country on the shore of Kashwakamak Lake. This beautiful lake with tantalize you with picturesque scenery, a plethora of islands and over 10 km of water to explore. This, of course, doesn't mean you HAVE TO do so - you may choose to spend your entire week relaxing on the shore watching the kids play in the water. That's the beauty of renting a cottage in Ontario…you do exactly what you want.
The waterfront is easily accessible from the cottage and a shallow, sandy entry in a sheltered bay makes for private swimming. That island you see across the way? It yours for the week! Explore it, maybe pack a lunch. It's the stuff of which memories are made.
Let's step inside. Depending on which door you use, you might enter the screened porch area or the main hall. Let's go to the screened porch first. This is a perfect spot for a book and a coffee. The rustle of the wind in the trees and the twittering of the birds serenade you while you finish that page-turner of a novel you've been wanting to get to. Maybe someone else in your group will deliver a coffee or glass of wine to make the experience complete. NOTE - the owners have contingent plans to convert this space into a 4th bedroom.
Through the door, you'll find yourself in the sitting area/TV room. This is the spot to enjoy family movie night, catch the big game, or maybe catch up on some binge watching on a rainy day.
A little further on, you'll find the kitchen and dining areas. Both of these enjoy the main view of the lake and waterfront areas. After that, there are 3 comfy bedrooms for you to catch up on that deep sleep that only comes after relaxing days at a cottage.
Out and about? The local scenery is top notch, so any drive will have you reaching for the camera. Groceries are 20 minutes away in Plevna, as is the LCBO. The area also presents chip trucks, bakeries, ice cream stands and restaurants for your culinary pleasure. If you fancy some Canadian history or just want to get back to a city for a day, Kingston is about 75 minutes away and Ottawa is a little under 2 hours.
Hersco Haus promises to be popular with small-to-medium sized families. The owners look forward to sharing this special spot with you.

Some areas of the bay have submerged fallen trees and depending on water level some caution is needed for boating.
