Canada Day Is Just Around The Corner Here at Sauble Beach Cottage Rentals

Victoria Day Sauble Beach

Victoria Day Sauble Beach

Well Victoria Day was cold but was lots of fun anyway. The waves off Lake Huron (Sauble Beach) were quite high. Sauble Beach Cottages  (Sauble Beach Rentals) and Sauble Beach Campsites had the young and old holding blankets and wearing heavy coats to keep warm.  Here at Lake Francis Cottages the guests were able to snuggle up and watch a movie in their cozy nest. The wind died down on Sunday night so they enjoyed sitting by a  fire. The air was crisp and the stars were absolutely incredible. No one was brave enough to  jump  in the clear cold water but did enjoy a canoe ride early Monday morning.  All of you who came out to enjoy the Victoria Day Long Weekend don’t forget Canada Day in Sauble Beach is just around the corner. Here at Lake Francis Cottages, Sauble Beach Cottage Rentals, Lake Huron Cottage Rentals, Georgian Bay Cottages Rentals and others near by look forward to the up coming summer to see you all spend some quality time here in The South Bruce Peninsula. If anyone who was in on Victoria Day Long Weekend and tried the fridgid waters in Sauble Beach let us know if your crazy or was it a bet?

The Docks Go Out Today on Lake Francis Cottages Rentals, South Bruce Peninsula

Bass Fishing-Lake Francis Cottages

Bass Fishing-Lake Francis Cottages

Today and tomorrow will be busy days. With some help, we will be putting the docks in at our Waterfront Cottages. This consists of a 30 ft. extended  dock and an attached floating dock for your relaxing and tanning pleasures. It allows you to have sun all day long  and is also a great way to dock a boat. Many Sauble Beach Rentals, cottages for rent in and around The South Bruce Peninsula,  Georgian Bay and Lake Huron area may not be able to have this type of dock because of the waves off shore. We will use an ATV as well as man power to put these in. When it is done it looks so inviting and ready for the summer months that are right around the corner.  The lake is very clean and the Bass are in sight. This weekend I am sure my kids will be out fishing trying to catch the first Bass of the season. Of course they will catch and release. This lake is absolutely a Great Bass fishing spot. The weather is getting better everyday which also means I am going to put my Baltimore Oriole and Humming bird feeders out  so they can nest  on the properties here on Lake Francis in South Bruce Peninsula. Well, better get going or I will never get this all done!

Serenity at the lakeSerenity at the lake

Whether you have cottages for rent in the South Bruce Peninsula area; Sauble Beach CottagesGeorgian Bay Cottages, Lake Francis Cottages, Wiarton Oliphant, Port Elgin or Southhampton spring is a very busy time of the year. With this winters snowfall it seemed to bring a substantial amount of  tree branches to the ground. Thursday we had a fire going down by the lake to burn the larger ones after they had been cut into smaller pieces. The sky was so blue and it seamed to fall  into the chrystal blue waters of Lake Francis (South Bruce Peninsula). You could smell wood in the air as the robins were in search of materials for their nests. The calmness  of a waterfront cottage is very serene. At night  as the sun goes down you can see the fish jumping and the loons begin to say good night. When you look across the lake  as it gets dark all you will be able to see is the stars , moon and a glimpse of flames along the shore  line. Everyone is out sitting by a camp fire so in the distance you can here the sounds of laughter. The quietness is something you long for after a hard days work or when your on a Ontario family vacation.
