You can launch your boat at the waterfornt, purchase supplies such as fuel, ice or bait, and fish in the Ottawa River, using either your Ontario or your Quebec fishing license. Tie up your boat at the free daily docking provided by the Municipality, or arrange for the Waterways services to trailer your larger boat around the HydroDam and lauch you back into the river where you can cruise the Ottawa River worry-free as far as Mattawa. Our Village remains a quiet haven where you can take a moment to relax and get to know the real Ottawa Valley.
