Hambly House - Three Bedroom Cottage, Sleeps 6
Whether you’re looking for an all-in Cottage Country experience in spring, summer, fall, or winter, Hambly House is sure to offer you exactly what you’re after! Only 30 minutes North of Kingston, in the beautiful South Frontenac region, is where you’ll find idyllic Hambly Lake. The locals call it their “best-kept secret!”
While the lake may feel miles away from civilization, it is actually quite close to the conveniences in town and is just 12 minutes away from a grocery store and LCBO/Beer Store as well as several spectacular hiking and biking trails. Closer to Kingston is where you’ll find shopping, healthcare, restaurants & attractions.
The quiet community of cottagers are rightly proud of their piece of paradise, so this cottage will suit those who enjoy peace, tranquility and the sounds of nature. Your family may have just found their forever vacation cottage!
The landscaped gardens, full of colourful perennials, lead to a sunny dock at this west-facing location. A small sandy beach with a shallow walkout deepens quite quickly to about 10ft off the end of the dock and the water is great for swimming. The wrap-around deck has seating in sunshine and shade and there’s a picnic table on the lawn for al fresco dining. The gazebo-covered hot tub, discreetly tucked away off the end of the deck, is bound to be a popular year-round feature. Inside is a lovingly designed space with an open floor plan on the main level; a comfortable living area, dining for 6 and a well-equipped kitchen. The 3 bedrooms on the upper floor are beautifully furnished and the master has an ensuite bathroom. Whether you’re looking to slip into the hot tub to enjoy the sunset over the lake on a warm spring or fall day, jump in off the dock while the kids build sandcastles on the small beach in the summer, or take a moonlit romantic skate on the frozen lake in the winter - Hambly House it is the epitome of cottage fun in one easy-to-get-to location. There are times we come across a location that’s just about perfect in every season – this one ticks those boxes!

Cozy, clean cottage with a wonderful location and lots of amenities including a well stocked kitchen. So many fish off the dock. Lots of watercraft to explore the beautiful lake. Friendly neighbour that helps care for the property. Perfect for our weekend getaway!
I'm almost hesitant to write this and give away a beautiful secret holiday place! 😉 My husband and I stayed a couple of nights this time, but we plan to be back! Gorgeous views, clean and comfortable bedrooms and cozy family areas with all the kitchen equipment etc needed. We loved taking the canoe out and watching the ducks (we are still looking forward to seeing the baby loon sometime!) Definitely would recommend this property highly
