Every cottage has a story. This guest book gives yours a beautiful place to keep it.
We take the photo of your actual cottage and hand-illustrate it into a custom engraving on a solid wood cover — right down to the porch, the dock stairs, the trees out front. Add your family name, your lake, and the year it all began, and you've got a keepsake that greets every guest before they've even opened the cover.
Inside: 80 blank pages, ready to fill with sunset notes, "wish you were here" scribbles, birthday weekends, and the kind of memories that get read out loud at Thanksgiving for the next twenty years.
How it works:
Send us a photo of your cottage, cabin, or lake house. Our team hand-illustrates it into a clean, engraving-ready line drawing, then lasers it onto the wood cover along with your personalized text. Every illustration is drawn from scratch — no templates, no presets — so your guest book looks like your place, not a stock cottage.
Perfect for:
New cottage owners breaking in a fresh guest book
A meaningful gift for someone's cottage, camp, or lake house
Milestone anniversaries — "25 years on the lake" starts a new chapter
Realtors or builders closing on a waterfront home
Airbnb or Cottage rentals for your guests to leave a warm message about their stay
The details:
Solid light birch wood cover, custom laser-engraved from your photo
Personalize with family name, lake/location, and established year
Wire-bound, lay-flat design for easy writing
80 unlined interior pages
Handmade in Rideau Lakes, Ontario
To order: Upload a clear photo of your cottage (a front-facing exterior shot works best) along with the family name, lake name, and year, and we'll send you a proof before it goes into production.
Note: Product is book only and pen in picture is not included.
