This house is literally right on the water. It was too cold to swim but I really wanted to. House is well maintained and clean. Beautiful view from inside. The gallery kitchen was a little tight for more than one.Nice bedrooms and master bath is wheelchair accessible

We enjoyed Northern Michigan but would not book this property for future visits. We were disappointed in the kitchen-the shape and cleanliness of appliances and the equipment. We found the remote control for the TV under the couch and it was taped together and a challenge to utilize. Underneath the upholstered furniture and underneath the cushions was unclean. We had to wash the throws on the couch as they had dried food on them.

We rented this cottage to gather our two sons, their wives & two grandchildren together. We all live in different states, so this time together is precious! This is such a lovely setting with so much to do together! Being right on the water with small beach was great with our 6 year old grandson. Our kids & grands loved the lily pad, especially the day it was so windy! And the last couple of days we discovered the ping pong table under the tarp! Not much fishing available off the dock, but my husband took a kayak out to deep water & caught a few. So he took the 6 yr old down to the public beach by Beulah & fished a bit of the dock platform. The 12 yr old enjoyed swimming laps as well as most adults in the deeper water and everyone enjoyed all there was to do! The reason for the 4 star in cleanliness was the grill needed cleaning, but other than that the cottage itself was excellently cleaned. We would definitely rent here again!

My family and I loved getting to spend some time Up North at Jon’s property while our own cottage was undergoing repairs. Beautiful location right on the water—we really enjoyed ourselves. Thank you so much!

All bedrooms have a nice view of the lake, nice deck at East end of cottage too, for grilling, and eating. One small end of deck has another picnic table right next to the water. Dock is nice too. Kids had fun fishing off of it. Fireplace helped warm us up on a few cold evenings

The setting of the cottage was great. It was wonderful to be right on the water! The colors of the water made us feel like we were in the Caribbean (minus the humidity). Bring your polarized sunglasses. Easy to get to Frankfort and Beulah. Jon was great to work with. We would definitely come back.

Had a terrific week in the Bald Cottage! Great amenities (dock, beach, kayak, paddle board) and location. Can't recommend enough. We'll be back.

Our week escape was really top notch. There are several amazing properties on Crystal Lake but this one stands out. The single floor concept worked great for my older extended family and the property truly felt secluded despite having next door neighbors. The small beach is also perfect for children as the shallow water allows play without worry. We are already looking to book again!

It almost feels like a houseboat, how you are perched right on top of the water. Every room has huge windows that frame the view. Wonderful beach. Resident blue jay. Clean. Modern. Near a great restaurant - Rocks Landing. Jonathan made everything easy.

This is an amazing property, and the pictures / description don't do it justice. The view and beach are great, and ideal for kids. The beach was perfect for our 2 and 3 year olds. Next time we consider a trip to the area, I'll look to book this place again if it's available. It would be tough to beat its location, view, access to the water, etc.

This property was perfect for my husband, 2 adult kids, and me! It was simple, but clean and comfortable. There are views of the lake from every room in the house! (I still miss waking up to that. . .)
The kayak and paddle board are tons of fun, the grill works well, and the kitchen is well-stocked. We saw some amazing birds on the dock, and also got to enjoy some black squirrels chasing each other up the backyard trees.
We really needed a place to get away and rest - and this place did the trick. There were some great restaurants for take-out, world-class sunsets, and great hikes. We love it Up North, and this house was a great base from which to enjoy the area.

We had two families staying at the cottage and we loved every minute of it. The sunsets and the starry night skies were the highlight of the week, followed by the bald eagle we caught soaring overhead while lounging on the dock. The kids loved the paddle board and kayak. We tubed the Platte River and spent a night at the Cherry Bowl. Perfect up North week. Thank you!

Everything about this cottage was perfect! Cottage was clean, beds were comfortable, kitchen/living space just right and full of windows with a lovely view of the lake. Outside beach area very nice and perfect for the little ones. Many places/spaces to sit outside and relax throughout the day depending on if you want sun or shade. We commented several times that it was comfortable and quiet...if we didn't know we were in Michigan...seemed almost tropical. Also close to shopping, restaurants and ice cream...if wanted. Would definitely rent again!

The cottage is well maintained inside and out. Very clean and well equipped. Perfect dock for stand up paddle boarding or kayaking. Fun for teens or young children. Restaurants are a short drive from location, the nearest is just half a mile down the road.

Great location with beautiful views. Cottage has anything you'd need. Host is very prompt in responding to any questions. Will definitely be back.
