Summer week at Whitewater Village

We have just returned from our summer week at our fractional ownership cottage on the Ottawa River. The small cottage community is perched on a peninsula. The cottages are built on the Canadian Shield, each with waterfront and beautiful views of this unspoiled area of the mighty river, about one and a half hours west […]

Purchased on day of first visit!

We visited Whitewater Village in June of 2008 and purchased on the same day, after touring the model cottage and having ‘Captain Joe’ take us for a spin on the river. I think you could say it was love at first sight. Our family enjoys the cottage life but conventional ownership is just not workable […]

A summer week of special memories

Our summer week of 2015 at the resort was one of special memories. Julie and I have immensely enjoyed our stays in Treetops over the past 5 years, with family and friends joining us in its offerings; whether it be in the quiet tranquility of snowshoeing during our winter weeks, the spectacular fall colours as […]

Whitewater Village Cottage Club: Summer the best time of all!

We have been owners for a number of years and have no regrets. We love that is a place we come to relax. As I tell my friends, I only have to bring my clothes and food: the rest is taken care of for me. I don’t even have to change a light blub (unless […]

Our own little piece of heaven

We live in a quiet part of Ottawa so it wasn’t just peace and tranquility we were looking for – we wanted a little getaway with the luxuries we are used to and enjoy. A home away from home… but not too far away from home that it was a chore to get to in […]

What’s your Vacation Flavour?

It seems that everyone has a different ‘Vacation Flavour’.  Some like adventure while on vacation, and others simply want to curl up with a furry companion and a great book.  Others, like myself, choose a little bit of everything wrapped in one!  That is what is so great about Whitewater Village. For those who love relaxing in […]

Our cottage is for our families to come together

Another summer has come to an end for us at Pine Circle. We have been lucky to begin the summer with a week in June and end it with a week in August for the past few years. We have been there for 6 years and always find something new to do every time. This […]

Five years later, it’s still one of the best purchases we’ve made!

We always explain our weeks at Whitewater Village in the same way: “We arrive on Friday with food, drinks and clothes and leave the next Friday with clothes.” We’ve always loved the idea of typical cottage ownership, but would have hated the reality: endless maintenance and cleaning, the feeling of obligation to visit every weekend […]

Becoming a member of Whitewater Village was the best choice we have made for our family. 

Owning a conventional cottage did not fit with our lifestyle. One of our sons has environmental allergies. The unpredictable nature of opening a cottage, even after a week was a risk we simply could never take. Learning that the cottages at Whitewater Village are cleaned and maintained regularly was what first caused us pause; curious to learn more. We […]
