| Great time at Skipping Rock Lake House. This was the second time I have rented and there have been many improvements including a new deck, and a new rock wall by the water. Amazing place to sit and enjoy the view and at night it's a great spot for a fire. There is also a wood heated hot tub, very relaxing and again, beautiful view while sitting and relaxing. The other new addition was the blackstone grill, awesome for cooking for a large group, breakfast, lunch and Dinner. The cottage was fully equipped with all the amenities needed to make the stay quite enjoyable. We will definitely be back again!!

Owner response: Phil, Thank you for the wonderful review and foe being a loyal guest. Our first time guests' always mention they love reading the reviews and appreciate the detail in them. It helps them understand what to expect. When we are at the cottage ourselves, meals on the Blackstone Grille make cooking and cleaning and breeze. We will never go back to a regular BBQ! We look forward to hosting you again. | |

| This was our fourth year in a row staying at the cottage. It is our yearly weekend girls trip and we absolutely love it. The cottage is extremely clean and cozy as well as the beds being incredibly comfortable. Outside there was so much to do between hanging out at the dock which is our favorite thing, sitting in the Muskoka chairs, and kayaks if you choose so. Jason and Lisa are so wonderful and accommodating. If you have any questions they are very quick to reply, and are so kind and graceful. The cottage also has a fire tub which is my personal favorite. There isn't anything negative I could say about this place, and I can't wait for my next time back.

| We stayed at the cottage for Thanksgiving weekend and although the weather did not cooperate, we had a wonderful time. The cottage was very clean and tidy, the beds are very comfortable and everything that we needed was there. One of the hosts was there when we arrived to answer any questions and show us around. We will look forward to a return visit.
Thank you
Jackie and family

Owner response: Jacqueline, Thank you very much for the wonderful review. It was very nice for you to point out that you still had a great time even when the weather didn't cooperate.
