 Lakeside oasis year round |
1001 Queen Elizabeth Driveway Ottawa, ON K1S 5K7 Canada +1 613 232 1001 http://www.dowslake.com/ |
This large pavilion at the edge of the Rideau Canal's picturesque Dows Lake offers relaxation and recreation. Two restaurants with large patios offer casual food, drinks and a wonderful view, while a full-service marina offers fuel, pump out and slip rentals. In winter, the lake becomes part of the Rideau Canal skating rink and the pavilion rents a variety of winter sports equipment, including skates, sleighs and cross-country skis. During the summer, the marina rents canoes, paddleboats and inline skates. Review © 2007, Wcities |
