We enjoyed our time at the cottage... it has everything we wanted and needed. We didn't get to spend as much time on the lake as we had hoped because our plans changed, but the kayak and lake access looked wonderful. This location in general is perfect. Easy to get to shopping or drive for a day trip to Sleeping Bear Dunes.

We loved this cottage! The decor was updated yet cozy. So close to the bike trail and the beach! We went to the Manitou for Walleye and to St Ambrose Cellars for live music. Our host was very responsive. We will be back!

The unit was unbelievably clean and as cozy as can be. It is just a lovely place. Town was quiet which was nice. Parking maybe a little suspect but tolerable. We loved it. Thank you very much.

Peaceful get-away

Well appointed, thoughtful layout, tucked in a woods, with a peek of the lake, and only a short walk to town and five min. to golf. Just what we were looking for.

Lovely place! It was decorated so adorable, had all the amenities, and accurately described. The only issue we had was that you couldn’t lock the place when you left, which should be fixed.

This place is even better than the photos! Absolutely everything looked brand new. Nothing was worn out or dingy. Everything extremely clean. The host was so sweet and, due to bad weather, proactively offered to extend our checkout. Highly recommend, would stay again.

Nice respite in quiet area of Crystal Lake

Very nice to be so close to the Betsy bike trail and ride all the way to the pier in Frankfort ( just < 20 mile round trip). Also nice to be close to Beulah restaurants. We also enjoyed picking peaches and plums in PierPort. The accommodations were perfect.

Beautiful Place with Great Amenities

Space was clean and well decorated, had lots of dishes, cooking utensils, etc., which was great because we love to cook. Would love to go back during the summer to spend more time around the lake.
