This cottage is located approximately 20 - 25 minutes to Rosseau or Huntsville where you can dine and explore all of the quaint shops and summer time markets. Please note that seasonal rentals both spring and fall are a minimum of 3 nights. High season which is the last week in June to labor day weekend is a 1 week minimum rental period.

Skeleton Lake cottage vacation
we really enjoyed the cottage and the lakefront property. it had everything we needed and came as advertised. Lorie and Steve were great to deal with and very helpful. we do recommend a 4 wheel drive suv to get up and down (we did have one) to the cottage.

1st week of summer
They have everything you need on site which we really appreciated. Satellite tv, fire wood, bbq with extra tank, towels, paddle boards, canoe and kayaks all available at no extra cost. Lots to do for the kids so that they dont get bored. It is exactly as advertised. Very clean and comfy cottage for 2 adults, 2 kids, and a dog. Owners and property manager were very very nice. Thank you!

Amazing Views and Beautiful Cottage
The cozy cottage exceeded all our expectations, it was beautiful, clean and the perfect retreat for our little family getaway to see the fall colours. The lake views were amazing. Lots of great outdoor spots to sit and enjoy nature, have a bon fire or enjoy a canoe ride on the lake. Inside was cozy, modern and well cared for.

Blue Heron Cozy Cottage
Beautiful, comfortable cottage with high-end furnishings. Fantastic deck overlooking beautiful, clear Skeleton Lake. Covered outdoor eating area was very convenient on a rainy day. Cottage is part of a large family compound with friendly hosts.

Slice of paradise!
We had a wonderful stay at The Blue Heron Cottage. The beach front was beyond perfect for our 3 year old and 10 mo old who enjoyed the shallow, sandy beach front (not weedy at all) and easy swim to floating dock. Lots of activity options! The indoor living space is small and cozy. On Rainy days we spent our time under the outdoor sitting area, which had plenty of coverage. End of August had minimal mosquitos, the water was still warm for swimming, mornings and evenings were chilly but the cottage is warm and the outdoor fire pit was always going :) Beds and living space are comfortable, internet worked well, Note - No oven but stovetop and all other kitchen needs are there. The cottage is located in a super private area, across from crown land. We really felt like we had our own space. We will definitely be booking again! Can't wait to come back! Thank you so much for an awesome stay :)

Stunning Cozy Getaway
Enjoyed the week with my wife along with our daughter, son-in-law and 2 grandchildren. For the size of the cottage, the space was well utilized and the covered porch was outstanding. Property was beautiful, beach and water were great and lots of paddle boards, kayaks, canoe's and paddle boat for our use. Our other daughter and her family visited from the south west side of the lake. Steve and Jill visited one day and had a great chat. Definitely a strong consideration for a future visit but much suited for a couple of family of 4 but we made it work. Thanks for everything Lorrie
