Live on an Island! How romantic is that?
We have done an independent home audit showing all issues affecting the property value. This report is available for your review.
Location: 15 minutes from Pembroke ON, 15 minutes from Chapeau QC, 1¾ hours from Ottawa ON, 4½ hours from Toronto ON, 3½ hours from Montreal QC. Allumettes Island (10 miles x 20 miles) is surrounded by the mighty Ottawa River which forms the border between the Canadian Provinces of Ontario and Quebec, connected by regional highway. We are on the QC side of the river directly across from Pembroke ON, on Allumettes Lake. Allumettes Lake is part of the Ottawa, but because it is so wide at our location (approximately 3 miles!) it is called Allumettes Lake. We are located in a beautiful bay with spectacular views of the water.

"This is a wonderful sexy home to live, work and play in. It is almost always quiet here even on the busiest holiday weekends. What you hear are the sounds of nature, birds, animals, wind and water.
Everywhere you look there is something beautiful to see! If you like long walks on the beach, watching the sun come up, being dazzled by a double rainbow, the intimate romantic beauty of the full moon moving across the river, lying in bed listening to the waves lap against the shore, or the fierceness of a lightning storm shattering the night, this would be the property for you. If you want to see young families of ducks and geese, herons feeding, osprey diving to catch fish, turtles waddling across the sand, beavers swimming by and fish jumping out of the water, this is the property for you.
It is a wonderful place to raise a family, or to work from home. This property is a four-season playground, swimming, gardening, horseshoes, bocce and gigantic bonfires on the beach, fishing, boating, canoeing, kayaking, trail hiking and long walks on the beach in summer; ice fishing, snow shoeing, cross-country skiing and ski-doing in winter -- all right outside your door!"
