Weather
When is the best time to visit the Skeleton Lake region?
The best time to secure your Skeleton Lake vacation rentals really depends on your personal taste. The area experiences all four seasons, with cold and snowy winters but relatively mild and temperate summers. Summer is, of course, the time when most people choose to visit, which can make for an exciting time and the chance to make new friends. However, the warmer the season, the more expensive and crowded the area will be. Winter is quite snowy, but snowmobiling and cross-country skiing are popular activities during these months.

Natural features
Crystal waters, geographical features, and stunning views, all at Skeleton Lake
Skeleton Lake is believed to have been formed by a large meteor impact about 800 million years ago, then filled in by periods of glaciation. It’s roughly 5 miles across and 3 miles wide, and is part of the Lake Huron drainage basin. The waters are crystal clear and, on a calm day, it’s possible to see almost 100 feet down with the naked eye—still less than a third of how deep the lake is at its center! Skeleton Lake is surrounded by serene forests, with the population of silver birch trees on Anderson’s Island being breathtaking.
