| Skipping Rock Lake House was the perfect escape! The location right on the water is stunning, and we loved spending our mornings on the break wall with a coffee, watching the water. The cottage itself was spotlessly clean, super comfortable, and packed with thoughtful extras like board games and a massive DVD collection for cozy nights. Having the kayaks and paddleboards right there made it so easy to get out on the lake. Jason met us at arrival, showed us around, and were incredibly welcoming. It is an absolute gem of a cottage and we cannot wait to come back!

| What a wonderful stay we had for our friends annual Father's Day trip. Such a beautiful setting, tucked in a bay, away from the big Lake Erie winds. The cottage has everything you need to enjoy your stay. Lots of beds for large groups, including a bunkie. It comes with all the amenities you need but it's really the outside that is above all other places we have stayed. A beautiful lake front area to sit and relax and have a fire at night. The lake views are stunning!! I highly recommend staying at Skipping Rock!!

Owner response: Phil, Thank you for the positive, detailed review. It is great to share what you liked so that others can picture themselves there too. We are very happy to host you and the guys for your annual fishing trip. We love when our guests come back time and time again to enjoy the lake and what cottage living has to offer. We look forward to hosting you and your group again next year. Father's Day is the perfect time to book. Lisa | |

| Beautiful, well equipped cottage right on the water. We had everything we needed. Jason came and toured us through the cottage and all its amenities which included games, paddle boards, kayaks and a fire tub! Fans and air conditioners provided the perfect climate control. The Blackstone grill made dinners quick and easy and the kitchen had more than enough cutlery, utensils, dishes and glasses. Plenty of chairs to provide ample seating indoors and out. The decor was modern with that cottage feeling.
All in all a great place for a getaway hosted by owners who like to go that extra mile to make their cottage welcoming and comfortable.
Thanks Jason and Lisa!!

| Host was at the cottage when we arrived to answer questions, and show how to use the hot tub, it was very well organized and appreciated. The cottage was very clean, and has everything needed for a cottage stay. The paddle boards and kayaks were great ! Will definitely stay again.
