Great Northern Michigan stay

The property was spacious, clean, modern, rustic and cozy! There was plenty of room for everyone and the lake access was sandy and perfect for our three year old granddaughter to enjoy the water. Dock was new and nice! Would definitely stay there again.

Crystal Lake Stay

Everything was as described and clean, from the house to the large lawn area. The house was well stocked and the host was very accommodating and responsive. Our grandkids enjoyed the shallow beach area and all the toys, paddle boat, canoes, stand up paddle boards. We had a great time and would book this house again!

Spectacular!

What an amazing location! Right on Crystal Lake and so close to Frankfort and Beulah. The home was cozy, spotless, and had everything our family needed for the week. The hosts are very responsive and accommodating. I would highly recommend.

Great Family Get Away

Perfect location and home for 6 adults & 1 toddler. One of the cleanest VRBOs we have rented. Location was great to get to Frankfort for our needs. We cooked most meals at home and enjoyed the well-appointed kitchen & grill. While the weather was very cool, on the warm days we enjoyed all of the kayaks and pedal boat. Dock was perfect for our grandson to fish & catch a few blue gills on his first few tries! Communication with Mike was always on point and we appreciate his feedback provided to us re: renting a pontoon along with checkin/checkout. We all agreed it was a wonderful stay.

Perfect Family vacation!

We had such a wonderful vacation on Crystal Lake! The house was perfect for our family of 5, plenty of space if you have a larger group. Kitchen provided everything we needed; plenty of towels, washcloths in the spacious bathrooms. Great yard and dock. We had tons of fun on the clear water with the provided kayaks and canoe. The fishing was great off the dock as well as the drop off, the kids caught a ton of fish! Easy check in and the lovely welcome basket was wonderful! Thank you for a great week, we would definitely stay again!
