Great location and charming house
It was our first time visiting in PEC so we picked Picton for our stay since it had the most restaurant and grocery options. Our friends came in from Ottawa so PEC was a good mid way point. Everything was very clean and we loved how spacious the house was. Access to the downtown core was a bonus as we were able to walk to Bocado for dinner one night. We were also able to get to Ralph's Meat Market, Metro, the LCBO and the Agrarian Market very easily by foot or car. The only issue we ran into was the internet connection but Brian came over as soon as I messaged Julie and tried to resolve the problem. After some initial challenges, we were able to stream the Leafs hockey game. Great hosts and I highly recommend them!

Wedding weekend
We were in Picton for a family wedding. The house worked very well for us as my 89 year old mother was able to stay in the main level bedroom with the ensuite bathroom. The house was lovely - comfortable with lots of different areas to relax. The kitchen was well set up for our breakfast and lunches and the location was ideal. Thanks to our hosts for quick responses to questions!

Charming spot for family time
We recently stayed at the White Rabbit guest house to celebrate my mom’s 70th. It was the perfect spot for a family weekend. We enjoyed a game night in the cozy, spacious living area and the kids loved running around the large, grassy backyard. Location-wise, it’s close to major amenities and an ideal home base for trips to some of our county favourites. The owners were incredibly communicative before and during our stay and the home was clean, well-appointed and suitable for both toddlers and my parents in their 70s.

Great weekend
Our family enjoyed a wonderful weekend at The White Rabbit in Picton. The location is very central to many wineries and breweries and walkable to grocery and liquor stores. We enjoyed sitting on the back deck and playing yard games in the back yard. The house had good seating, bedrooms and space for our group of nine adults. The house was very neat and clean with lots of parking. We have stayed three times at The White Rabbit and once again it helped us to celebrate as a family and create many good memories.
