Perfect for what we needed

We were at Crystal for a conference and this was a great spot with ideal accommodations for four of us. We actually didn't spend a ton of time in the house. One minor irritant - we had to still the beds. But that's not really a big deal

Family ski trip

As a past guest I was a little disappointed in the house this time. It wasn’t as clean as it was previously. We were given one roll of toilet paper per bathroom. I know we are supposed to purchase our own supplies but when arriving at night with a group, two rolls would be appreciated by guests to get us started. I couldn’t find any extra pillows for the futon. The listing says there is firewood but we did not see any this time. Many of the dishes were dirty. We had to wash them before we used them. Last time we rented there were pictures on the walls but they are gone now. It just needs a little updating. Lastly, they need new mattresses. The mattresses are very worn and soft. A toilet was broken upon arrival and she had it fixed right away. I don’t mean to complain but owning rental property myself I would want to know these things.

New Years Fun!

We had a great time! Great place, lots of kitchen amenities, beds were comfortable, very spacious for all 14 of us. We could have used more toilet paper and maybe some Kleenex. That is the only thought we had. Beautiful place, clean, comfortable and perfect for all of us. Thank you so much for such a great place to celebrate the new year!

Great Up North Home

This house was perfect for our extended family gathering. The location was nice, great firepit, and responsive host. The screened in porch was so nice (although could use a little upgrade on the furniture). Overall it was a great home and we highly recommend it!

Great Family vacation destination!

Home was so nicely equipped and furnished. Enjoyed the screened-in porch and outside firepit. We could walk to the resort activities. Close enough to Sleeping Bear Dunes for a half-day trip with little ones! Highly recommend this property!

Great family spot

We booked a weekend here for our whole family which is comprised of 12 people. Finding space for this many people can be a challenge but this was absolutely perfect. Everyone felt they had adequate space and there were many options of places to explore that were not too far of a drive away. The highlight for many in our party was the 3 season porch which was occupied almost every night.

Best family reunion yet!

This amazing home was perfect for my family! Beautiful home. Great space in the home and the yard. All 4 bedrooms were great. And we loved that there was a ping pong table surprise in the basement! If we did an annual trip we would stay here everytime! Thank you!

Rented 7/14-16

Bedding was not good. No bath soap. No coffee. No instructions for tv. Couldn’t find towels until we looked in dryer. Porch furniture was dirty and uncomfortable. No chairs by fire pit. Certainly not worth what we paid.

Relaxing retreat

This cabin is located in a lovely little community. Myself and 10 others came to stay here for a weekend girls trip and had a lovely time. The cabin is clean and tidy inside. Don’t let the lack of ac deter you - this cabin is surrounded by tall pine trees that provide ample shade and keep the home nice and cool all day and night. We all very much enjoyed our stay.

About the host

Hosted by Rita Wieber

Host profile image
Rita and Renee are sisters who grew up in Lansing, Michigan. After enjoying winter skiing at many Michigan resorts, their parents invested in a cottage at Crystal Mountain resort in 1999. In 2005, they had the opportunity to purchase the last available lot in the Club #1 at Crystal and had the Mountain Resort custom built. Their families have enjoyed many years of year-round fun at Crystal. With growing families, the sisters are now sharing their beautiful cottage with other families and friends to enjoy.

Why they chose this property

Take a 10-minute walk to skiing, golf and all of the amenities at the resort. Relax in the cottage nestled behind beautiful pine trees on a quiet cul-de-sac. Take a little drive and you will find yourself on the beach of Lake Michigan in the quaint resort town of Frankfurt, enjoying a cherry pie in Beaulah, or climbing the sandy dunes of Sleeping Bear. Any type of escape you are seeking is all available from our comfortable, homey cottage.
