The beach and waterfront are a highlight of any stay. To keep everyone safe in and around the water, please follow these swimming rules:

Swim at Your Own Risk: There is no lifeguard on duty. Adults are responsible for the safety of everyone in their group.
Supervise Children: Children must be watched by an adult at all times near the water, and young children and weak swimmers should wear a properly fitted lifejacket.
Never Swim Alone: Always swim with a buddy, and avoid swimming after dark.
No Jumping or Diving off the Docks: Water depth varies and there are rocks near shore, so please ease into the water slowly.
Stay Clear of the Locks and Dam: Currents near the locks and dam can be strong and unpredictable. Keep swimming close to the property’s shoreline and out of the boating channel.
Watch the Weather: Get out of the water at the first sign of thunder or lightning.
No Alcohol While Swimming: Please save the drinks for after your swim.

Whether you’re paddling the kayaks or bringing your own boat, please follow these rules on the water:

Dock Use: Use of the dock is at your own risk. We are not liable for any damage to your boat or watercraft. However, guests will be held responsible for any damage caused to our dock or property.
Lifejackets: Everyone must wear a properly fitted lifejacket or PFD while in the kayaks, canoe, or any boat.
Operator Card: Anyone driving a motorized boat or personal watercraft must carry proof of competency, such as a Pleasure Craft Operator Card, as required by Canadian law.
No Impaired Boating: Operating any boat under the influence of alcohol or cannabis is illegal and is not permitted.
Slow Down Near Shore: Keep to 10 km/h within 30 metres of shore, and watch your wake around docks, swimmers, and paddlers.
Using the Locks: Follow all posted signs and signals at the Magnetawan Locks, and check the locks’ seasonal operating hours before planning a trip.
Check the Weather: Look at the forecast before heading out, and return to shore if wind picks up or a storm rolls in. Be back before dark.
Docking and Equipment: Secure boats properly at the dock, and return the kayaks, canoe, paddles, and lifejackets to their storage spot after each use. Please let us know about any damage.

We love welcoming your dogs! To keep the cottage and grounds great for everyone, the following pet rules apply:

Leash Requirement: Dogs must remain on a leash at all times while outside the cabin.
No Unattended Pets: Pets are not permitted to be left alone or unattended in the cabin at any time during your stay.
Furniture and Bed Restrictions: Dogs are not permitted on furniture (including couches, chairs, and ottomans) or beds.
Cleanliness: Guests are responsible for cleaning up after their dogs both inside and outside the cabin. This includes vacuuming dog hair before departure and the “poop and scoop” cleanup throughout the entire property.
Aggressive Dogs: Aggressive dogs are not permitted on the property. Aggressive behavior includes, but is not limited to, excessive barking, growling, snapping, or any behavior that poses a threat to other guests, staff, or property.
