Beautiful!

Loved hanging here for the week with our friends and family reading, swimming, and having bonfires by the beach. The house is well equipped and is just steps from the lake. It's always so hard to leave -- looking forward to next time!

Beautiful spot!

We had so much fun here reading on the beach, playing in the water, and watching the lake from the dock. The owner is easy to communicate with, accommodations were lovely, and we can’t wait to come back next summer!

Perfect updated cottage with a great spot on the lake.

What an amazing spot! This place really has everything you can ask for. Awesome lakefrontage, lots of updates where it counts to a fun cottage. We had 3 families with 2 under 10 and one baby. It was perfect. If you are looking for a cottage getaway with updates where it counts this is an 11.

Michigan Memories

The location was great with quick access to Frankfort, Beulah and South Shore Drive. The immediate beach access was nice with virtually no rocks. Fire-pit at the beach was a plus and Adirondack chairs to enjoy the lake and sunset at night. Close enough to the beach to monitor a child taking a nap in the cottage. Short distance to extended sand-bar that I had no idea existed on Crystal. If you are looking for a place that brings back some cottage memories, with two new updated bathrooms - look no further. Thanks Scott for the opportunity to enjoy your property and the always amazing Crystal Lake

Lake Get-Away

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay on Crystal Lake. The property is conveniently located three miles from Frankfort, is comfortable and has wonderful lake frontage. There was some confusion as to linens and towels on the website, but that was quickly remedied. The only downside is the common drive which is located ten feet from the front door! The neighbors are in and out a lot......both driving and walking, though for the most part are quiet.

About the host

Host profile image
My grandparents purchased this property and it's been handed down through the generations. Through the years some of our fondest memories have been shared here.

Why they chose this property

Location, Location, Location!

There aren't many places on Crystal Lake like this. No cars roaring by your bedrooms, no crossing a busy street to get to the beach. One of the best swimming areas on the lake with very few rocks.
