This large pavilion at the edge of the Rideau Canal's picturesque Dows Lake offers relaxation and recreation.

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 |
