Karen and George are terrific hosts. They have given us wonderful recommendations for restaurants and trails. They have also provided us the permit that allowed us to enter Sandbanks for free. The location of the guest house is perfect. We are able to walk to restaurants, coffee shops and shops. The guest house is so beautiful! It has everything that we need. We felt at home. The garden is gorgeous! Thank you Karen and George for the wonderful weekend. We will be back

Perfect spot in the County

Our stay was amazing. The County is always a wonderful getaway. The Runaway Rooster was the best spot to enjoy all of the area. The cottage was so clean, well appointed and the bonus space off the back deck was a breathtaking oasis of green and flowers. Location and the best customer service...even fresh cut flowers provided by our gracious hosts! We definitely recommend.

Runaway Rooster and hosts, George and Karen, could not be more charming! Just delightful!

This property was perfect for us--a couple from Toronto with a 12 year old son. It is just as cute, clean, cozy and comfortable as it looks. Karen and George have attended to every detail--it is super well equipped with kitchen gear, comfy linens, games, Netflix, etc. Karen and George were so nice and easy to deal with. We took them up on their offer to play badminton in their backyard and joined their family for roasted marshmellow around the fire one night. We're looking foward to going back!

Thank you Libby! You and your family were an absolute delight to host. It was lovely to meet all of you. We appreciated how clean you left the space, and loved how you made the most of the property and lawn games despite the weather. We especially enjoyed toasting marshmallows with you. Please let your son know we owe him a rousing badminton game challenge the next time you come here! He looks like a pro ... he'll probably win!! Be well. Karen & George

A beautiful restful getaway

Can’t say enough about this property! Not only is it beautiful, with so many creative accents and tasteful design touches throughout, but it’s extremely well-appointed. Not a thing was lacking, we loved cooking in the kitchen and the available Spotify & Netflix was much appreciated. Karen & George are gracious and helpful hosts, our welcome gifts were such a nice touch. Great location, Bloomfield is nicely situated between Sandbanks Provincial Park and Picton, and close to most of the wineries. So grateful to have use of a parks pass too! A wonderful convenience. We’ve never had a bad time in the County but this was our most comfortable and relaxing yet!

A place you'll want to run back to!

We decided to spend our honeymoon in PEC, staying at the Runaway Rooster for 4 nights. Karen & George were super welcoming and great to communicate with. Knowing of our recent special occasion, they were kind enough to greet us with a local fave Rose wine, chilled and ready for us upon arrival. It was a lovely first impression and welcome.The VRBO itself has all the amenities you could possibly need. Well stocked and comfortable, we will definitely visit again when we are next in PEC. I highly recommend leaning on Karen & George's expertise if you have any questions on what to do in the area. All their suggestions were hits.Lastly, they do offer a 2 course breakfast (paid, per person) which we also highly recommend. The breakfast items were thoughtfully prepared - you might've thought it was prepared by a professional chef! Definitely recommend to partake in this upgrade.Thank you again Karen & George!J&L

This cottage was fantastic. It had everything one could possibly want. It really felt like home. The hosts were amazing. Karen checked in with us every day to see if everything was alright. It was also situated so close to everything- Picton, Wellington, Sandbanks( for which we had a complimentary pass thanks to our hosts), and so many wineries. I would recommend this cottage to anyone in a heartbeat.

Exceeds expectations

Spacious, bright, open living area with fireplace. Separate bedroom with extremely comfy bed. We absolutely loved our stay. Karen and George have thoughtful added little extras like generous supply of coffee, creamers, tea, sugar, cooking oil and a complementary bottle of wine. The location is central to most of the wineries. Karen and George are excellent hosts and love to share their knowledge of the area. The patio sitting area is private, with beautiful trees on the property. We went in the fall, and the huge maple out back was in full splendour. Exceeded my expectations. Next time we will stay longer!

Week in The County

We had a great week at the Guest House in July 2019. Karen and George are amazing hosts, the house is spectacular, meticulously decorated, well equipped for cooking fresh County produces and everything has been thought of. The location is central for accessing everything in the county. Quiet, within walking distance to several restaurants and the quaint town of Bloomfield. As hosts, they could not have been nicer, with several kind attention including hand cut flowers and beach towels. They have endless suggestions for experiencing the county and are super helpful and knowledgeable. We have wonderful conversations with them, it is obvious they love to host. Thank you Karen and George

The Runaway Rooster is a real gem. We had a lovely and relaxing four day stay. The cottage is very chic with tasteful whimsical touches. It is also super comfortable, well-appointed and exceeded our expectations. Most importantly, hosts Karen and George were very friendly and welcoming and had many helpful tips.
