From a range of spices to coffee and cleaning supplies, our guests simply need to show up without the hassle of getting supplies ahead of time. High quality bedding, towels and toiletries are provided. The lower level has a washer/dryer, iron/ironing board and an additional full fridge/freezer. Please bring your own beach towels.
We have a gorgeous new 7 person, salt water hot tub for guests to relax in and leave their worries behind. We keep this open all year.
We have a fire pit available on the premises. We ask that guests bring their own wood either from Picton or one of the roadside vendors along County Road 12 (cash).
Bliss’ owners take a great deal of pride in the cleanliness of their cottage; our first commitment is to provide a clean/neat environment that exceeds our guests’ expectations.

The backyard is simply stunning and no doubt where you will spend the majority of your time. The large covered gazebo provides a majestic experience for dining, lounging or just viewing the western exposure for the fabulous sunsets off West Lake. The dock is a perfect way to get into the water and swim. Although the water is not deep enough for diving off of the dock there is a ladder to lower you down. Boats should not be tied to the dock but many guests have boasted success while fishing off the end of the dock. There is also a launch point where you can safely lower the three kayaks and canoe that are provided for your enjoyment. PFDs are provided for your safety. If you are feeling up to a little challenge you can kayak across the lake to the sand dunes for an adventure.
