★★★★★ We had a great time at Lazy Island. We booked out all three rooms and the place is even better than the pictures, with a super location and great amenities. We particularly liked the canoes which were fully licensed and which we were able to take out on the canals and the estuary. Corlia was a great host and we would highly recommend the place for a family stay.
