Old Burnside Bed & Breakfast

Your hosts: Marilyn & Howard Campbell

A Unique Georgian Mansion

"... this is one of the most exceptional houses in the Ottawa Valley." (The Ottawa Citizen newspaper.) Old Burnside started out as a log homestead built by a stream on the banks of the Mississippi River in 1822 by a Scotsman, James Wylie. Mr. Wylie's original 200 acres have dwindled to a beautiful seven-acre garden where Old Burnside sits in absolute privacy on its own stretch of the murmuring Mississippi.

Tait McKenzie Suite: Very large, elegantly furnished bedroom with ensuite bath overlooking the gardens, the stream (burn) and its waterfalls. Queen size bed with a cozy duvet for your comfort.

The Naismith Room: Named to honour James Naismith, world famous Almonte native who invented the game of basketball. A twin-bedded room overlooking the river, well-equipped for a good night's sleep lulled by the sound of the Mississippi River's waterfalls.

The James Wylie Aerie: A corner room with an eagle's view of the garden and gurgling stream. All decked out in blue and white with a queen-size bed.
