Thanksgiving in the County

The property had everything we needed to enjoy a long weekend in the fall. The kitchen was well appointed, and dining in the sunroom overlooking the lake was lovely. Everything was super clean, and comfortable. The host, Patricia was responsive to our inquiries and the bottle of local wine was a nice surprise. It was a great location as it is close to the wineries and we wouldn't hesitate to stay here again.

Beautiful view

We enjoyed our stay here, especially the outdoor area with the lake access, kayaks, fire pit, hammock, and beautiful view. We appreciated that the house was very well stocked with everything you need for cooking, towels etc., and was very spotless clean. The only downside is that the beds just weren't comfortable for our personal preferences.

Lovely Getaway!

Patricia is a wonderful host. The cottage is cozy and very clean. We caught (and released) many small fish off the dock, rented a pontoon boat on West Lake for a day and toured around Picton and surrounding towns. Dinners out at Stella’s and local Picton restaurants were very yummy. Wish we could have stayed longer!

Spotless home on the water

Great renovations that have turned this little home into a lovely open-plan retreat - great for socialising. Fantastic kitchen with everything needed to cook up a feast - including complimentary olive oil/ herbs etc. Truly a treat. A fully screened deck makes it easy to dine with a large group and a great view. A bbq is provided too. The house has aircon and comfy beds (my only wish would be for a down pillow.) The indoor living area/soft seating is small so rainy days get a bit long but the hosts provide games and the porch makes it pleasant to be “indoors.” We loved the little pier and spent time in the two kayaks provided. (Note - no diving off the dock and the water has weeds.) we lived the big outdoor fire pit. There are, as expected, plenty of insects in the outdoors - be prepared to clean off the outdoor chairs of cobwebs etc. Easy checkin with code lock on door. Thanks for a great stay!

Awesome visit

Our stay was great from the moment we walked in the door. The rooms were cosy and comfortable and the cottage was spotless. It was very well stocked from linens to plates/glasses/cutlery to coffee, tea, hot chocolate and spices. There was even all the fixings for homemade dressing as well as 2 bottles of local wine. The view was a stunning gift each morning, watching the sun rise over the water. I look forward to returning again!

Stellar at Lazy Acre

We had a wonderful weekend stay at Lazy Acre. The cottage is stylish and welcoming as were our hosts. There's view of the water from the sunroom and we were treated by the pair of swans coming to feed.Of course the bottle of local wine was a very nice touch. Thanks so much Patricia!

L’acces à l’eau pour la baignade est difficile et le fond de l’eau n’est pas beau. Beaucoup d’algues. Pour le reste tout était parfait. Les lits confortables. La cuisine WoW. Air climatisée. 2 salles de bains complètes. La vue magnifique. La véranda avec la grande table était un plus. Par contre le jour il fait chaud la dedans. ( Ce serait bien d’y avoir des stores pour pouvoir garder la fraîcheur. Je reviendrais 👌

Wonderful week spent at The Lazy Acre

Our family have just returned from an amazing week enjoying The Lazy Acre. The cottage itself was a great space for our group (varying between 2 and 6 adults over our stay) to unwind. It has been very thoughtfully renovated and the bedrooms and beds were very comfortable. The AC was something we sought out in our cottage hunt and it kept everyone comfortable when indoors and overnight. The kitchen is the (indoor) centrepiece of this property. It is very well appointed with new appliances and plenty of kitchenware to support almost any task. The large island became a gathering spot as meals as snacks were prepared and enjoyed, while the sunroom was where we gathered to eat and play games, all while taking in the view of the bay. The location benefits from an incredible waterfront setting, but is still less than 15 min into Picton and all that it offers. County Cider (and their great ciders, fantastic pizza and incredible view) is only 5 min away and other gems such as Jackson Falls Country Inn (and their fantastic brunch) are only a ~ 10 min trip. All in all - I would recommend The Lazy Acre to anyone wanting to enjoy a clean, comfortable waterfront cottage in the County, but still able to do quick trips into Picton or the any of the surrounding attractions!

Perfect little getaway

Clean, quiet, compfortable this cute cottage seam to have been recently renovated. It is very well equiped, it has all you need and more in door as well as outside. It is close to any convinience you may need and yet far enough to hear nothing but the birds or waves from the lake when the wind picks up a bit. It felt like paradize in the morning to sit at the end of the dock with my coffee watching the dragonflys dancing and while the fog was lifting. Also, the owner is super friendly fast to reply when needed. The service is impeccable. I strongly recommend this little paradize!!❤️👌 Nadine

Beautiful location! Very quiet and private (even with neighbours close by). Cottage had everything we needed. Only issue was digital lock system. Big concern about the possibility of locking ourselves out. Had to make sure we traveled with log in details, as it kicked us off a couple of times. Could use a bar or tub mat in the showers (but that’s just my age group :). All in all a lovely vacation break — thank you! K
