The Pettit House has been carefully renovated and furnished to enable guests to experience a relaxed vacation with friends and family. There is so much to do in Prince Edward County, but you won't want to leave the grounds where you can collectively prepare gourmet meals and enjoy local food and wines. Sitting on six acres, it boasts a fire pit and water access to West Lake and Sandbanks Park. Stunning modern bathrooms, with soaker tubs and rain head showers, and lush linens make for luxurious relaxation.

The entire property is at your disposal, except the linen closet and basement. Walks around the grounds to the lake are encouraged, and enjoy the fire pit at night under the massive Butternut tree for smore's and marshmallow roastings.
