February 2024 Seasonal Update

Hello Campers!

We hope you are all having a great winter!

Here are some updates for the 2024 season:

NEW Pedal Boat!
The “Commander” has finally arrived and will be in the water this spring! This boat can accommodate up to 4 guests and carry up to 750 Lbs!

In addition from May 10th to June 25th and from September 5th to October 15th seasonal guests may rent any boat for 1 hour and get 1 hour free!

Shower Renovations

The showers are all being touched up this year including the installation for white FRP panels which will eliminate the drywall getting scuffed up.

We are also working on increasing the water pressure to the showers and ensuring it is equal when all showers are in use at the same time.

Site renovations, moves and upgrades

Terry Jr Retirement:  At some point the Terry JR Rental trailer developed a leak somewhere of which we are unable to find. This has caused a musty smell in the trailer of which will take major repair to find. This trailer will still be around but will be used by us for family visitors.

Terry Sr Move: The Terry Sr will be moving over one site to Site 15 taking the Terry Jrs spot. This will open up Site 14 for overnight RV,s.

Site 12 Post: The post on site 12 is being moved to the left, turning this site into a “Pull-in” site , (Pull-Thru for smaller trailers).  This will allow for easier parking on the site and enhanced privacy for sites 10 and 12.

Sites 34-37: Site34 is getting larger angled parking by stealing some space from 35. Site 35 and 36 are being merged into a new site 35 that will allow for pull-thru RV rentals. Across from the current 36 the new 36 will be carved out of the forest allowing for a very private back-in site. Site 37 is getting a haircut making the back slightly deeper with a few trees also removed across the road allowing for easier parking.

WIFI Upgrades!

After a *cougfh* few challenges over the 2023 season with the WIFI, significant investment is being made including a 1 Gigabit bridge that will tie in the main internet feed to the top of the Terry Sr. We are confident this will solve the issues in this area. 

Boat Rental Procedures Changed

In harmony with Transport Canada best practices we have implemented many changes to the way we rent boats. Feel free to try it out on the room service website:

That’s all for now!!

See you in the spring!!! πŸ˜€

PS, Quick reminder that this update and all past and present ones are always posted to the seasonal website located at:

License of Occupation 2024

Hello Campers!

It’s that time of year again!  We would like to thank you for your continued business and welcome you back for another year at Lazy Rock! πŸ™‚

Please note the following changes for the 2024 season:

In response to rising operational expenses and to align with regional averages, there will be an adjustment to the seasonal site costs for many of our park members as seen in this year’s LOO.

Making this decision wasn’t easy. Our aim is to balance fair pricing while adjusting to market trends. Those affected by this increase will benefit from a locked-in, grandfathered rate for the next several years, ensuring a continued quality experience at our park. We thank you for understanding.

Payment plans are available, allowing for incremental payments over the winter. If this suits your needs, please inform us so we can tailor your seasonal invoice appropriately.

Friendly reminder that if you are not returning πŸ™ for the 2024 season your trailer must be removed or winter storage fee paid on or before October 1st 2023.

Completing your LOO for 2024


You can complete your License of Occupation (LOO) at any time before October 1st 2023.  Once your seasonal deposit is paid, the license will be signed by Lazy Rock and emailed back to you.

It is extremely important that we have your correct email address listed under the “Primary Occupant” section of the license form.

This form can be completed using any smart device, (phone, tablet, computer etc) and does not need to be printed unless you want it for your personal records.  
Please use the link below to fill out the form for your 2024 License of Occupation.

Looking forward to another wonderful season with you all!

August 2023 Seasonal update

Hello Campers!

Seasonal Campfire

Following extensive deliberation, we’ve scheduled our seasonal campfires to be held mid-month throughout the season. All our valued seasonal guests are cordially invited!

Join us by the firepit on the following dates. Whether you wish to share stories, enjoy the warmth, or simply relax, we’d love to have you with us.

Upcoming campfire dates for this season:
August 19th
September 16th (Potluck – To Be Announced – Soonish :D)
October 7th
See you there!

The campfire will take place in the backyard of the Lake house. Just look for the big fire pit at the back of the main house and don’t forget to bring a chair. πŸ™‚

Seasonal renewals start soon

The renewal notice for the LOO will be sent out during the first week of September, as is our annual practice.

For those joining us again in the 2024 season, we deeply appreciate your continued patronage! However, if you’ve decided not to return, please inform us by September 1st. This will aid us in the timely organization and allocation of spaces, ensuring that others can enjoy your spot next year.

Lakeside Chalet is Opening!!

After many many many many many many, delays….Sigh… The chalet is opening this week! WOOHOO, look for the post on social media! See teaser photo below:

June 20th 2023 Seasonal Update

Hello Campers!

Few updates for you all πŸ˜€

Fire Ban

Fire ban is still on -.- Looks like rain might be coming soon so fingers crossed! We did have someone here with a gas firepit and it was pretty cool and better then an iPad tuned to the fireplace channel.

Mowing

Just as an FYI, due to software limitations, when booking a seasonal mowing and choosing a date and time for your mow,  the actual mowing of your lawn will occur at anytime within that week based on weather and other factors. We will work to make this more clear when booking.

Vanilla Cones

In an effort to balance stock, stop eating the chocolate ones. We’re totally kidding but the vanilla ones are awesome too!

Seasonalboat rack storage.

We need to make a change as far as boat storage is concerned on the seasonal boat rack. Starting July 1st 2023 boat slots will no longer be free of charge. All seasonal guests will need to ensure their slot by this time for an annual fee of $20. The fee will go towards fixing the rack so it is easier to get boats on and off the rack and will cover the cost of an additional rack once required.

Main Dock Repairs

You may or may not have noticed a barrel missing on the side of the main dock.  This is being replaced along with all the barrel straps on both docks. The majority of the straps have been replaced but due to a miscalculation we have had to order more OOPS.

Lake Temperature

27C!! Wow its awesome see you out on the lake!

Geese POOP

Ah yes our favorite feathered friends with their fluffy kindred geese children? Gooselings? Smaller “pooping machines” have landed and are crapping their way across the beach.  We have been combating this in many ways and Kevin refuses to sit on the beach at 4AM with a garden hose sprayer. SO! Coming soon to our beach you will notice a lifelike coyote – don’t be startled and please pre-warn your pets so they don’t poop themselves when they see it.  =P It is of course completely fake, we just hope the birds don’t figure that out. It will move daily so expect to see it all over the beach standing watch against the poop machines. In addition, the automatic goose sprinkler sprayer doohickey that works 50% of the time will remain 50% vigilant at the right corner of the beach. So unless you want to play in the sprinkler if you see it up, it will possibly spray you, until you turn the dial to off. Feel free to turn it back on when you leave the beach.

Construction

As said in previous emails please ensure you are filling out the “Project Request Form” available on the seasonal website. Any Construction or projects of any kind will not be approved without the form being completed. Ensure you are listing all details and materials of your project on the form. This includes if not clear from earlier emails, digging holes of any kind, planting trees, gardens, screen rooms, sheds, decks, etc.

Bi-Weekly Seasonal Fires Coming Soon!

Details once it rains…

It will be BYOC (bring your own chair) :D.

Grass exceeding 5″ will be cut and billed to the site. If we notice that your site is in need of mowing, we will mow and charge the applicable fee.”
