The house had everything we needed for a short ski vacation. Right by Crystal Mountain! The only thing missing is a washer and dryer, especially to dry wet ski clothes.

Karla, thanks for your review regarding your stay at our cottage back in February. We will work on the washer and dryer.
A great weekend away with family and friends. Home is very clean, beds are comfortable, and all necessities are readily available. This place is located a short walk or drive from the resort (shuttle passes are available). We had a great time and will definitely consider this place in our return visits. Thank you, again!
We enjoyed another wonderful stay. New family room furniture and large kitchen / game table are very nice! Sheets & Towels are super luxurious! Thanks for opening your chalet to us!
This is a great place for a family stay! The property owner is very helpful, made our check in and out easy and is quick to respond to any questions!
The home is very clean and comfortable and conveniently located in the resort community. The golf course is beautiful and the resort staff is very friendly. I will recommend this location for summer and winter vacations.

Thanks Dewayne. So glad you had a good time. Please come stay again.
We really enjoyed our time at Jeff's chalet. It was cozy and comfortable. Perfect for a small group. Walking distance to ski hill.
It would be nice to have access to the washer and dryer, but not a big deal since we were only there a few days
We absolutely loved our time at the Stay-N-Play. There were several bonus items such as spices and condiments as well as extra blankets. The front light was quickly fixed when we mentioned it to the owner. Our only disappointment was that the listing said there was a hot tub but this was only available down the road and for a fee. We would definitely come back here again.
The weather has very warm for Northern Michigan and the 2 air conditioning units kept the place comfortable. Unit has everything you need and deck is a great place to watch golfers.

It was very clean and though it started out with some trouble communicating with the property manager (no check in instructions), it did end up working itself out and was a nice place to stay for half our group.
This property is easily accessible to all the resort has to offer. Pleasant walk into the resort. Quiet location. Comfortable, although a little dated in furnishings, but retro can be fun. Overall, this was a nice property.
Property was very clean and smell-free. Nice space for a family of 6. Every bedroom has a sink which was great. It got warms a few days but there is a AC unit on both floors to keep it cool. Overall excellent experience.
