HOUSEBOAT CRUISING ON THE RIDEAU CANAL

Seeley’s Bay is located on the beautiful southern part of the Rideau Canal, surrounded by the expansive lakes and charming small towns that make this region unforgettable. If you head south from Seeley’s Bay you can visit the lively city of Kingston, Canada’s former capital, and where the Rideau Canal meets the majestic Lake Ontario (8.5hrs away). Alternatively, heading north, Jones Falls with its spectacular staircase of locks and impressive dam is a little over an hour away via the idyllic Whitefish Lake.
