The Opinicon
1000 Islands and Rideau Canal Garden Trail
Perfectly placed along the shores of Opinicon Lake, The Opinicon is a living piece of history on the Rideau Canal System – a United Nations World Heritage Site. Originally a rustic fishing lodge, the property has evolved over time, welcoming multiple generations of families year after year. With over a century of hospitality and warmth radiating from it’s buildings, this unique location has everything you could want for an unforgettable day. Mature trees and lush gardens infuse the grounds with a sense of magic and natural wonder. Savour locally inspired dishes in the pub, seasonal dining room or on the patio. Enjoy our housemade ice cream cone or a light meal from our Ice Cream Shop & Cafe while sitting on our back patio. The Opinicon offers something for everyone.
