A Day in the Life at The Lilac Lakehouse

Imagine waking up to the soft glow of sunlight filtering through your bedroom window as the lake outside shimmers with early morning light.

At The Lilac Lakehouse, each day unfolds like a beautiful story, balancing serene relaxation with unforgettable experiences. And while every day and story is beautiful in PEC, there's nothing quite like getting to imagine (and write) yours!
Here’s what a typical day might look like during your stay at our stunning waterfront retreat.
Morning: Coffee, Calm, and Connection
Your day begins with the comforting aroma of freshly brewed coffee. Whether you choose to simply step outside your suite and prepare it the adjacent lounge's coffee station or in the gourmet kitchen, the real question is: where will you sip it? Will you step out onto your private balcony to greet the songbirds, curl up right in the cozy top-floor lounge with a cherished companion, or savor your first moments of the day on the expansive dock on the water?
Decisions, decisions...
Once you’re ready to greet the world, take a leisurely stroll around the property’s gardens. The blooming lilacs and lavender provide a calming backdrop to start your day. For those craving a bit of activity, grab a kayak or paddleboard and glide across the lake’s tranquil waters as nature awakens around you.
Midday: Adventure or Relaxation—Your Choice
By midday, you have the freedom to craft your experience. Feeling adventurous? Explore the best of Prince Edward County by visiting charming boutiques or a local farmers’ market to pick up fresh ingredients for a homemade lunch. The County’s treasures are just a short drive away, making it easy to discover something new.
Prefer to stay close to home? The Lilac Lakehouse offers plenty to keep you entertained. Challenge friends and family to a game of cards in the lower-level entertainment area, or lounge by the dock with a book in hand. If the mood strikes, try your luck at dockside fishing and reel in a story to share later.
Afternoon: Indulgence and Views
Afternoons at The Lilac Lakehouse are best enjoyed outdoors. Fire up the BBQ in the pergola area or prepare a delicious meal in the chef’s kitchen using the fresh produce and artisanal goods you picked up earlier. Gather around the live-edge dining table or enjoy an al fresco feast on the deck, surrounded by breathtaking water views.
After lunch, you can take time to recharge. The lounge areas across all three floors of the house provide the perfect spots for quiet relaxation, whether you’re sipping tea, journaling, or catching up on some reading. The gentle hum of the lake ensures a peaceful atmosphere no matter where you choose to unwind.
No need to recharge, and feeling ready to go? Head out to sample and sip at the many wineries, breweries, and distilleries that PEC has to offer - just make sure to establish a designated driver first (or schedule a group wine tour ahead of time!).
Evening: Fun, Food, and Firelight
As the sun begins to set, The Lilac Lakehouse comes alive with possibilities. Gather your group for a lively karaoke session or a movie night in the media center. Feeling competitive? The games table downstairs is the perfect setting for a spirited match (stay away from Monopoly if you plan to talk to each other during the rest of your stay)!
For those who prefer the tranquility of the outdoors, evenings on the dock are magical. Watch the sun dip below the horizon as the lake reflects a symphony of colors. We swear there's something extra breathtaking about the Cove's sunsets. End the day by sharing stories under a canopy of stars - without the city lights, they sparkle extra bright.
Night: A Peaceful Retreat
When it’s time to wind down, retreat to your luxurious suite. Take a soothing soak in the standalone tub or enjoy the serene lake views from your private balcony. The high-thread-count bedding and thoughtfully designed spaces promise a restful night, preparing you for another day of wonder at The Lilac Lakehouse, and another experience in beautiful Prince Edward County.
Your Day, Your Way
Every day at The Lilac Lakehouse is as unique as you are. Whether you crave adventure, relaxation, or a bit of both, this waterfront haven offers the perfect setting to make your stay unforgettable. From morning coffee to starlit evenings, every moment here is a celebration of life’s simple joys.
