Walkable location, big home

We stayed at this property with a group of adult ladies for a weekend getaway. The house is clean and comfortable, plenty of space for a group. We loved that we were able to walk into town for dinner and shopping.

Wonderful Family Get-together

We recently enjoyed our third family vacation at the cottage. We love the location, the perfect view of Crystal Lake as well as easy walking distance to Beulah. The cottage is a perfect fit for our family, this year spanning children’s ages from four to fourteen. The lower level bunk area/tv room is a great area for the teenagers, and the four-year old spent many hours enjoying the beautiful sandy beach. The kayaks and paddle boards are always an attraction and a nice addition to fun along with the fire pit for S’mores. While the cottage was undergoing some renovation, the owners made every effort to guarantee that our stay would be comfortable and all that we expected from our previous stays. This year we enjoyed a beautiful new kitchen with gorgeous appliances and countertops. Another new bathroom is planned for next year. Communication with the owners is exceptional. We have already booked for 2024 and can’t wait to see the completed renovations next summer!

Great property

The backyard was the best for all of our friends to hang out at and enjoy all day and night long. All 14 people slept comfortably all weekend. A short walk to a cute brewery with great food. Sitting outside one night we saw the northern lights!!

Spectacular

Best sunsets ever in this generously equipped home. We rode bikes to Lake Michigan on fantastic trail, enjoyed the kayaks and paddle boards, savored delicious home grilled dinners on the deck overlooking beautiful Crystal Lake. Easy access to fresh produce market, Dairy King, great golf and more. We were two families -- 11 total -- and all had comfortable accommodations. Great linens! Shhhh....don't tell anyone ;-)

About the host

Hosted by Prayush & Hollie

We have a rather international family. My wife Hollie Anderson, grew up in Northern Indiana, while I (Prayush Saraswat), grew up in Mumbai, India. Hollie is a German teacher, and Prayush works in the hi-tech/software industry. We have two kids, Sam Anderson Saraswat and Leena Anderson Saraswat. They both enjoy playing Violin. Sam is now at MSU studying political science, and Leena is finishing high school. They both love this lake house. We all love to travel and have traveled to 6 continents. Our interests are reflected in the house and furnishings.

Why they chose this property

We have vacationed in this area for years, and have always dreamed if buying a house on the lake here. We particularly enjoy the clear water of Crystal lake and activities in Frankfort. It is our favorite place in the world to vacation. We thought this house could easily accommodate friends and family, and would be great for us to just walk out to the beach. We are glad it came up for sale in 2019.

What makes this property unique

Right on the beach. Walk or Kayak to Beulah downtown (including 5th shore brewery). Enjoy sports on Crystal Lake. Bike to Frankfort. Close to Platt River for kayaking. 15 mins to Cristal Mountain. Close to Traverse City and Sleeping Bear Dunes National Park
