About this property

Beachfront vacation on Crystal Lake, downtown Beulah

The Beach House is a turn-of-the-century, twenty-room home that was used as a boarding house for young college women working in the large luxury hotels of the lumbering era in Northwestern Michigan. The charm remains with quaint living rooms, individual kitchens and bathrooms in each of the four living quarters. There is 1 one-bedroom unit, 2 two-bedroom units, and a four bedroom unit which are rented together during the summer months, making it ideal for a family gathering! Starting in the fall of 2024, we are offering smaller spaces for up to 12 people at a discounted rate during the non-peak months for the upstairs or downstairs units.

Each place includes a flat screen TV, fully equipped kitchen, refrigerator, and range. There is a large picnic area with gas grills on the side lawn and huge decks on both the first the second floors overlooking the lake. If you have a special request, ask to see if we can accommodate it.

The house is located within feet of the east end of Crystal Lake, between the children's playground and boat launch on Beulah's town beach. The bike trail that connects Thompsonville and Frankfort is just around the corner.

There are also several restaurants and shops in this charming community. If you are ready for more exploring, Frankfort, Elberta Beach, Traverse City, Sleeping Bear Dunes, and Point Betsie, are all within a short drive.

Hope you enjoy your time in Northern Michigan, regardless of where you stay!

Weekly rentals are from 4:00 p.m. Saturday through 10:00 a.m. Saturday the following week.

If you are considering a trip before Memorial Day and after Labor Day, we may accommodate shorter stays and smaller groups at discount.

About the host

Hosted by Nancy and Scott Bradley

Host profile image
I grew up in Frankfort, but have lived 40 miles outside of New York City for the past 30 years. I have never missed a summer in Northern Michigan, and my wife and I now bring our kids to enjoy the laid back life this area offers.

Why they chose this property

We bought this place sight unseen! I knew the location (on one of the most beautiful lakes in the world), the town (quaint little shops and next to the Rails to Trails entrance), and the area, but hadn't seen the inside of the house. When I finally saw the place first hand, I couldn't believe what an awesome place it was. With separate units, it's perfect for large groups that want to be together for vacation, but not living on top of each other. It suits our family perfectly, and I think it will suit yours as well.

With the help of some talented friends and family, we’ve been taking on winter projects to modernize this home so people can enjoy this beautiful setting for years to come.

What makes this property unique

The water quality of Crystal Lake is incredible, drawing us to Michigan each summer. This house is on the beach, but also in the middle of this quaint village! If you can pull yourself away from the deck and beach, it provides easy access to explore Northwestern Michigan.
