We recently stayed at North Channel Cottages to celebrate our 25th wedding anniversary. Our cottage was situated with a deck directly over the French River. The cottage was exceptionally clean and had all the modern conveniences... which all worked! The ownership was present to greet us and to address any needs that popped up during the week. They were extremely friendly, courteous and made us feel at home right away. This is a beautiful location, very well kept, with all amenities. Next time we come, we will give the fishing a more serious try. It sure looked like a great spot! We plan to return next year and highly recommend this place to anyone seeking a friendly, well kept cottage in a lovely setting. An easy, four hour drive from Hamilton make it all the more inviting.... and the best thing....? sitting on the deck at night, looking up at an endless, panoply of stars that seemed like you could almost touch.... just majestic!

Lovely, pristine French River is the backdrop for a set of cottages nestled on the shore and a few up on rock perches giving exquisite views. We rented the cozy, well appointed White Pine one bedroom. A bit difficult for me climbing the stairs up the rocks of the Canadian Shield, due to mobility issues, but so worth the covered deck (we could BBQ in the rain), the comfy queen bed, well-appointed kitchen; it was spotless throughout, and perfect for our needs. No mice, which made me very happy. The little eating nook with 3 views was much enjoyed at breakfast. No cell network unless you drive up the hill a kilometer, which made us truly relax! Andrew, the owner, is a top-notch host. Very friendly and accommodating. Knowledgeable about the river and where to fish, he has a fish cleaning area on site - no messing up your kitchen! Hubby was thrilled with the number of fish he landed over the week, and we have some nice fillets in the freezer. I highly recommend this business for fishing and real relaxation. The evening bonfires are fun and social. Family and pet friendly. We will soon be planning a return visit.
