Cottage vacation rentals in Skeleton Lake

This is a beautiful place to stay, right on the lake with an amazing view, and a friendly beaver right next door! Our highlights were the hot tub, the fire pit and kayaking on the lake. This spot would be amazing in the Summer. The house is clean and well set up, the 2 downstairs bedrooms are small but just fine for sleeping. There is plenty of room in the rest of the house.

The cottage was lovely! We had no trouble using the kitchen, grill and firepit. We had a beautiful view of the lake, access to kayaks and a canoe, and really clean rooms and washroom. Definitely exceeded our expectations!

Our family absolutely loved our stay! The beach was sandy with shallow water - perfect for swimming and kids play. We felt rejuvenated after trips with the kayaks, wood fired saunas and coffees on the dock. The location is close to shops and restaurants as well. The cottage had all the amenities and was squeaky clean. The hosts were very responsive and proactive with their messages and never left us hanging. We will totally be booking again. :)

Very responsive host, easy to communicate with! When something is missed by the cleaner, frank was able to help us with solution. The place is very quiet and peaceful, very recommend for small families.

Had a great time at cottage. Great Location on a nice calm Lake. Very easy check-in. Staff very friendly. Very Clean and nice kitchen and BBQ. Would definitely recommend staying here. The Dome and other huts on property would be fun to stay at as well. Have already recommended this property and will probably be back.

This was our second visit to James & Marisol's cottage and we loved our stay just as much this time around. The location, the scenery and being on the lake... absolutely breathtaking. If you ever want a nice getaway, look no further because this is a hidden gem. The interior is gorgeous with a nice rustic vibe & ideal for relaxation. Sitting on the beautiful Brandy Lake, it was perfect for us to do some canoeing & kayaking. Most of all, hanging around by the dock in the sun was our favorite part. We highly recommend this brilliantly hosted cottage to everyone looking to have a wonderful time in beautiful Muskoka!

Returning guests here. We had another amazing getaway in Lynn’s cottage (see my previous review for specifics - it still stands).

If you are looking for a beautiful, tranquil setting this is your place. The home was as described, clean and very well stocked. The outdoor area, fire pit and location are one of a kind. In October the fall colours were beautiful, would highly recommend James’ place for a peaceful getaway.

Joanne has been a great host from booking all the way to check out. She has communicated with us all throughout the stay. She was kind enough to give us a flexible check in and check out time. The place was as described on the listing and instructions were quite clear as to what’s what. My family and friends had a wonderful time.

My sister did a last min booking an hour before we arrived and Jess was super accommodating! everything was lovely and it was exactly what we needed for a little wellness getaway! we even extended our stay another night because we were soo relaxed and happy with the place and location! I highly reccomend staying here.

Daniel gave a thorough intro message of specifics the day of on top of what was already so clearly laid out. The property was beautiful with access to so many activity options. House is clean and spacious. We spent a lot of time on the dock which had a great selection of furniture and sun/shade options. The beach is a close walk. We thoroughly enjoyed our weekend and will likely be back to enjoy the space again!

Had a great experience! The place was spotless, and the lake view was absolutely beautiful, perfect for a relaxing getaway. We especially loved the hot tub, which made the stay even more enjoyable.

Jason’s place is perfect! A great clean home with everything you need. Large property right on the water. Gazebos, hot tub, large deck with water view. We had a fabulous week!

Zebina, was so helpful & proactivt to ensure our visit went smoothly. Our group loved the location & pristine clean home. We'll be recommending this home to family & friends alike. Cheers !

Carm & Mary accommodated our group on short notice and were very gracious hosts. The place was very nice, clean, and well equipped.

Ashley and team were great hosts and a pleasure to deal with Cottage was what I expected and Port Carling is beautiful! Highly recommended !

We had a great time at Patrick’s cottage, the location is great, within walking distance from the beach, it’s exactly as described, very clean and comfortable. Highly recommended.

We stayed 4 nights at Bryan's cottage and had a wonderful time. Very beautiful view of the lake. Although it was still a bit chilly in April, we were very cozy and warm at the cottage. It was very clean, well stocked, and had everything you could possibly need for your stay. The cottage even had some board games. Bryan was very responsive and was a great host overall. 5/5. Would highly recommend!

Beautiful and peaceful lakeside cottage! We had a great stay. Host was extremely responsive and helpful. It was very spacious and had good amenities.

The stay was very safe and cozy. The well-cleaned and maintained building created a great atmosphere. It is one of the best B&Bs I have ever stayed in. Anthony's responses were very quick and straightforward, making everything go smoothly. I asked for an hour early check-in, and it was approved. I will definitely come back again later.

We are a family of four with two young kids, and the stay in Azar’s peaceful waters cottage was great. The cottage is beautiful, decorated in very good taste, perfectly equipped and feels very homey. It is very clear that many details have been thought of to make it extremely friendly for guests, particularly for families (for example, there were spare change of sheets in the children’s bedrooms). We stayed there during a snowstorm weekend, so there we didn’t do a lot of travel around the area, but just staying in and hanging around the cottage was beautiful and very enjoyable. The location is very private and quiet. It is a perfect place for families. We would definitely come back to Azar’s cottage to visit the area at other seasons as well.

We discovered the perfect secluded getaway in this beautifully maintained property. The grounds were consistently plowed during snowfall, making our winter stay worry-free. The main cottage comfortably accommodated our group of 5, featuring a fully-equipped kitchen and a thoughtful welcome kit with snacks and coffee. Two full bathrooms with provided toiletries made sharing the space easy, and the comfortable beds ensured restful nights. The clean, spacious hot tub was perfect for relaxing after outdoor activities, and the reliable wifi kept us connected. We enjoyed both the excellent heating system and the cozy wood fireplace, all while taking in beautiful waterfront views. Killbear Provincial Park, just 40 minutes away, offered excellent winter hiking. Quick tips: bring extra towels as only one is provided per person, and pack slip-on shoes for travelling between cottages. While water has a slight odour, it tastes perfectly fine. We’d love to return in the summer! Highly recommend!

This stay was the most perfect for my Family and I, we felt just at home and the surroundings were beautiful! Cozy and peaceful, just what we needed this weekend! Vanessa was very quick to respond to us when we needed something. I recommend this place to everyone!

Great cottage with an amazing view! Our family of 4 + 1 dog loved it. A lot of space, good kitchen, the beds are comfortable. We enjoyed doing barbecue and looking at the beautiful sunset.
