The Blue Heron Cottage

Tucked along the quiet shores of Rice Lake, The Blue Heron Cottage is your family’s peaceful escape from the everyday. Thoughtfully designed and fully stocked, it’s perfect for cozy mornings, lakeside BBQs, and stargazing nights by the fire. Whether you're sipping coffee on the dock or reading by the fireplace, you'll feel right at home — and never want to leave. Enjoy the included kayak, volleyball/badminton setup, and unmatched privacy on the longest lot on the road.

The space
The Blue Heron Cottage features 3 cozy double-bed bedrooms, 1.5 bathrooms, a fully equipped kitchen, a bright dining space, and a comfy living room with a fireplace. Outside, enjoy a large private lot with space to unwind, dine, and play. Guests have access to a kayak, volleyball/badminton net with rackets and balls, a BBQ grill, and a lakeside fire pit — all surrounded by nature with no close neighbours. It’s peaceful, spacious, and perfect for families or friends.

Guest access
Guests have full access to the entire cottage, the spacious yard, lakeside fire pit, dock, BBQ area, kayak, and volleyball/badminton setup. You're also welcome to explore the far end of the property, which features a small, forested area — just be cautious when venturing out, as it's more rugged and natural.

Other things to note
The tap water is safe to drink and tested regularly, but we also provide a water station for guests who prefer filtered water. Essentials like body soap, shampoo, toothpaste, toothbrushes, and shaving supplies are provided to help you feel right at home. If you need extra essentials or anything to make your stay more enjoyable, just let us know — we do our best to make sure your time here is the best it can be.
