Search hotels in Mattawa

We selected Mattawa for a couple of days because it is at the northern point of Algonquin Park and the leaves would be at the height of their colour. We had been there before to enjoy the trails, paths along rivers, the gorge and waterfall. This part of our visit did not disappoint us. However, we will select a different motel next year.

Mattawa is my home town and I have always loved it. It is a small town where the Mattawa and Ottawa Rivers meet. The people are very friendly and all the restaurants in the town are top notch. In the summer, they have Voyageur Days and the little, quiet town comes to life with many vendors, lots of things to do and live bands. The town is swamped with tourists.

Mattawa is a quaint little town that borders Quebec. The views of the Ottawa River are spectacular. It’s quiet but we love it. Very handy if you are camping nearby with a Home Hardware, an LCBO, two grocery stores and a Giant Tiger. Variety stores and gas stations too. The locals are all very friendly. Eat at Myrts! You won’t be disappointed. Tai and Chinese food are both great too. Valois restaurant has the best blueberry pie. Sitting at the town dock and watching the sunset is priceless.
