EXCURSIONS

Located just minutes from downtown and hidden away in forested waterfront parkland, The Ottawa New Edinburgh Club is one of Ottawa’s oldest sports clubs.

Offering tennis, rowing, paddling and sailing programming for adults, as well as for children in our popular day camps, ONEC is your place for summer fun and fitness.

The historic boathouse is located just off the banks of the Ottawa River & our red clay tennis courts are set amid the greenery just off the Sir George-Étienne Cartier Parkway.

ONEC Tennis Facilities

Our tennis courts are hidden away amongst some of Ottawa's oldest pine & oak trees - only steps away from the Ottawa River.

Our seven red clay courts are maintained daily and our hard courts were recently resurfaced. New LED lighting was installed in 2022.

We're also steps away from the Ottawa Heritage East Winter trail - from which we run our winter XCS and Trekking program.

ONEC Water Sports Facilities

The River House, previously known as the Ottawa New Edinburgh Club Boathouse has reopened its doors after a 5 year renovation by the NCC.

ONEC couldn’t be happier to be returning to its special place on the Ottawa River, that it has been proud to call home for the past 100 years!

The historical building is a rare example of a Canadian boathouse that has continuously served its community for a century or more.
