OTHER USEFUL INFORMATION:

Deposits are required to secure your houseboat and your dates. Deposits must be received within 14 days of making your reservation or your dates may not be held. The balance of the rental is due before leaving the dock. All incidental items (gas, bait, ice, etc.) must be paid upon return to the dock.

Cancellations with at least 90 days notice have the following options:
– Move the entire deposit to different dates in the same season, pending availability
– Move the entire deposit to a future reservation, at prevailing rates
– Refund 50% of the deposit via the original payment method and forfeit the remaining 50%

Cancellations of less than 90 days forfeit their entire deposit.

We do not offer cancellations or refunds due to weather, fishing conditions, border issues or changes in your group count. Early checkouts will be charged for full time booked.
Ontario Wilderness Houseboat Rental is a small operation with a short season and we are greatly affected by last minute cancellations. We recommend you purchase travel insurance for your houseboat trip.

Your houseboat will be available for boarding at 2:00 p.m CST. Houseboats will not be allowed to leave our docks if you arrive after 3:00 p.m, as you must complete orientation prior to departing our docks. 
The houseboat must be back at our dock by 9:00 a.m. on the day of your return.

All rates are in CND funds and include 13% HST. US rates are approximate and can change with the current bank rate.
