"Had a wonderful stay at Skipping Rock cottages. Georgian Bay is my favourite place. The cottages were great. The main cottage was quaint, a log home very nicely renovated but none of the charm removed. The rear building was modern and had everything a family could want (as my grandkids would testify to). Very attractively done! Just wish I could have stayed longer."

"We had a fantastic stay. The hosts were wonderful, kind, and incredibly responsive to any needs or questions we had. We enjoyed the fire pit and star gazing from the dock at night, but spent most days in the water swimming or paddle boarding. The property is quite peaceful. We had family from multiple countries join us here and will do so again."

"Amazing place to stay at. Host was so responsive and was up to date with everything. We literally got a message within 5-10 minutes every time we needed something. Amazing 10/10, would 100% recommend. There was something to do for everyone from 5 year old kids to grandparents."

"We loved staying at this beautiful cottage! There were 10 of us in total and between the two on-site cottages there was ample room for everyone. The private lake access was fantastic - the water was warm and inviting - and in the evenings we had lovely fires. The kids enjoyed the various activities, both water and games related. Having AC was a bonus! Any questions and concerns we had were responded to immediately. While our primary purpose was relaxation and serenity, despite the seclusion, town isn't far with lots of amenities and restaurants."

"I stayed in this place for two days and had a wonderful experience! Everything was super clean, neat, and well-organized. The decoration was lovely and the space was quiet and comfortable. The host was respectful and responsive. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a comfortable stay. Thank you for the great hospitality!"

"Fantastic 5 starts! The property was fully stocked with all the amenities needed to settle in and fully enjoy the house, kitchen, fire pit, dock and boats. Sparkling clean with a ton of character and charm. The pictures don't do it justice. Our hosts were incredibly thoughtful and responsive. We'd love to return!"

"Skipping Rock Cottages genuinely exceeded expectations - the lakeside location was fantastic for our extented family gathering and made for a very memorable weekend. Very well stocked property with lots of recreation gear, well equipped kitchen, rustic and modern design and helpful thoughtful hosts. Everyone was impressed!"

"Me and my family staged for four nights and absolutely loved the space. We had lots of young children with us ranging from 1 to 15 and there was lots to keep them busy. We barely left the cottage in the days we spent there. Cottage has lots of charm and the loft is very nicely finished. We also found it very private. Nothing but good things to say. Strongly recommend."

“We had a great time - it's a perfect spot and the cottage has everything. We extra appreciated the well-equipped kitchen and our friends who have a 9 month old appreciated all of the kid/baby items in the house! We were already trying to figure out a time when we might be able to come back."

"The property was absolutely gorgeous and perfect for four families traveling together to ski at Blue Mountain! We did two families in each house and there was always a place to go for fun and quiet if desired."

"We stayed for two nights in December 2024 (9 adults and 10 kids). Everyone had a wonderful time. The place was wonderful for both large groups and groups with kids. All of the accommodations were so well stocked with everything you could possibly need including tons of kids toys. Would recommend 100%!"

"This is our second year partnering with Skipping Rocks Cottages providing welcome jars of seasonal blooms I have enjoyed my partnership with Breanna and Skipping Rocks Cottages. Their homes are stunning, their communication is always prompt, and their appreciation for what I create is always positive. It’s nice to add value to guests experiences, and supporting a local business (around the corner, literally) is great for the community!"

The expectations are always clear, with a well-organized approach that makes each project efficient from start to finish.

"We operate a family-run market and bakery and were thrilled when Kylie approached us about a potential collaboration. Kylie and Bre are an absolute pleasure to work with. We greatly appreciate their patience, particularly during our hectic harvest season. Local supporting local is the absolute best and we highly recommend connecting with them."
