Beach Pretty House Tour-Swooning Over This Lake Rosseau Beach Cottage

We found another dreamy beach cottage to share with you all.  This beach cottage is actually a two-bedroom boat house on Lake Rosseau, the main house is up the hill.  I would be perfectly content if this was the main house.  How cool would it be if your friends inviting you up for a week on the lake and you get up to the lake expecting you will be staying in a bedroom, which would be awesome because your at a house on a lake for a week, and they show you your diggs...and you  literally have your own house on the lake?   Then you walk in the door  and you expect it to be rustic cottage, and then you enter and realize this isn't your typical boat house, but has been renovated by an interior designer.  Wow..The designer is Anne Hepfer, who has been featured in numerous design magazines.  The interior of the houses walls and beams are awash in cottage white, the floor to ceiling windows and sliders  are on three sides of the boathouse and bring in the natural light and spotlight the gorgeous views of the lake, and the furniture and home decor are a mix of different shades of blue, white and sand. ..so beach pretty!

We love the idea that they kept the private area (sleeping quarters) secluded from the entertaining areas...everyone wants some me time.  An open first-floor plan features a well-connected kitchen, dining, and living areas. A large music room with a grand piano alcove features French doors at both the waterside deck and south-facing terrace that allow the room to open up to the outdoors on idyllic summer days.
