Our stay was incredible and very relaxing! Our kids loved it as well and had so much fun on the beach and kayaks. The owners were incredible and very helpful. My kids say that this was the best weekend of their lives! Rating this 5 stars, would absolutely recommend this to anyone. Who doesn't enjoy a beautiful sunset on the beach? We know where to look when we go on vacation again! Thank you host's for allowing my family on your property and enjoy the beauty.

The cabin is wonderful, the property is fantastic and the location made for a wonderful stay. A short walk to Beulah and the Betsie Bike Trail is an added benefit. We thoroughly enjoyed our time. The use of your kayak was an added plus. Sitting on the beach chairs by the water late at night, seeing the stars, the Betsie Light and the sound of the waters of Crystal Lake was an unforgettable experience. Thank you so much for sharing your property.

We were very happy with our stay. The cabin is very small, but well kept with good amenities. VERY compfy beds, a nice shower head with hot water, everything in the kitchen worked well. Everything is marked very well as to where to park and what items you can use. It was cooler weather so we didn't end up using the beach really, but liked that it was included.
My biggest heads up for others looking to book this is 1. the space is very small, and I'm not sure I would have enjoyed it as much with more than 2 people in the cabin. The bedrooms are so cramped it is hard to find room for your suitcase. (I actually would have preferred a luggage rack over the closed door closet or dresser.) And 2. The owner lives on the property too. The aerial photo showing where the cabin is located is old, and between the cabin and the lake is the owner's house. His backyard is your cabin's front yard. You walk past his house, which overlooks the lake, to access the beach. The owner was very nice and helpful during our stay so we had no complaints, but I know not everyone wants to be staying right next to the owner, and that wasn't clear in the vrbo listing.

Brian was phenomenal, the cottage was cozy, hooks everywhere to hang bathing suits and towels, beds so comfortable if you’d like a softer bed like my daughter and I do, Plenty of towels for the bathroom, kitchen well-stocked
If able, add more lights in the kitchen and side lamps for the evening in the living room, wish there would have been a rake available rake up some of the debris that washed ashore. Otherwise, loved the beach and floating platform
Would DEFINITELY stay here again.

Best week, just not enough time.
So many things to do just not enough time in one week. Perfect location. The cottage is very comfortable with everything you need for a relaxing week. We especially enjoyed using the included kayaks!

Family Getaway at Crystal Lake
We had a great stay in this cozy cabin a stones throw from Crystal Lake. We really enjoyed that there were many activities right on the property from kayaking and the row boat to games in the shed. Fire pits on the beach and outside the cabin with wood provided was a nice touch. Overall had a wonderful time with friendly host nearby.

Fun, relaxing stay on the lake
We stayed in one of the small cabins which are right on crystal lake.
The cabin is very small, but totally fine for a family of 3-5. The cabin we stayed in has a loft with mattresses with kids can sleep ( may be hot up there though)
although the cabin is small, the design is set up so that there is plenty of room for everything. Cubbies, nooks, hooks, shelves everywhere. I'm a heavy packer and always bring more stuff than I need and I found a place for all of it.
The cabin is clean and updated. The owners are extremely accommodating and friendly. The owners sometimes stay in the larger house in the front facing the lake. There are two other small cabins behind it that they rent out. There is also a family who owns other small cabins next door who were there. They had an 8 year old son who became instant friends with my 8 year old son. They fished and played and had a blast together the whole time. The cabin behind us was rented out the same week by a family of four. they had two kids my son's age and they also became instant friends and played together the whole week. They are now becoming penpals. We got along great with the parents and had some fun hanging in front of the fire by the lake each night. If you are looking for a private cabin with no distractions or other people, this probably isnt for you, but if you are looking for family fun, its perfect. it had sort of a communal feel which was perfect for us.
There was also plenty of opportunities for privacy.
The lake is beautiful. We watched the sunset every night sitting from our area on the beach. they had a row boat, kayaks and tubes to bring out on the lake.
there really wasnt anything they didnt have that we needed. The cabins are stocked with everything you really need.
The cabin is close to all the sites. we didnt really have to drive too far to find fun things to do outside our little area. There is a marina nearby where we rented a pontoon boat.
I highly recommend this rental. We had.a great family vacation.

Great private beach and friendly owner
We stayed for a week and fell in love with crystal lake. The lake was very clear and shallow near the beach and was nice for little kids to swim. What makes this cottage special is the owner. Both Brian and his wife were very welcoming, friendly and nice. The private beach the owner owns was just perfect for my 7 and 5 years old to swim. There were chairs for us to relax and beach toys for kids to get busy with. We enjoyed our week of get away and hoping to come back again in the future.

Swim, boat, bike, jog, fun!
My family of four with younger children had a wonderful time here! The beach was perfect for swimming, kayaking to the nearby park, and fishing with the provided kayaks and rowboat. The provided grill allowed us to cook dinner a few nights, and the nearby restaurants provided dinner the other nights. I went jogging a few days on the nearby Trail, we also rode our bikes on the trail. My children slept every night in The Loft and loved it. Fully stocked kitchen, great shower head pressure LOL, and comfy bed all made for a great stay as well. The hosts were so kind and accommodating, and provided much of what we needed to enjoy a vacation without us having to pack it ourselves. Also a short drive to nearby Glen Arbor, Frankfort, and the Platte River gave us even more fun on our vacation. Got a good Sunset the last day we were here too. Thank you for a great vacation!

Hidden gem in Beulah.
This property was just simply amazing. Having never been to this wonderful town it was an amazing experience. The cabin was just perfect. The hosts were very nice and quick to answer any questions about the area and cabin needs for guests. Will definitely be coming back.

Loved the beach and kayaks!
Check in was super easy and convenient. The five of us (2 adults and 3 teens) stayed in the cabin together for 3 nights before spreading out to both cabins. The extra space was perfect. Loved having the property to ourselves. Brian was very helpful with anything we wanted. The bike trails in the area are wonderful. Definitely recommend if you love being outdoors.

Excellent getaway
Cute updated cottage on the shores of Crystal Lake. Plenty of amenities including bikes, kayaks, bonfire pit, grill, and row boat. Close to town for food, shopping and brew pub. Owners were great hosts, shout out to Brian and Meg! They were generous, kind, and responsive. The basket of snacks and water in the fridge was a great touch. Missing it already! Pete & Heidi

Amazing cozy cabin on the best lake!
We had an amazing stay-it really couldn't have been better! The cabin was super clean, warm, fully stocked with everything we needed (we had all the pans and tools we needed to make pancakes, pasta, and steamed veggies easily), and the beds were really comfortable! Brian was a wonderful host and made sure we had everything we needed to have a great stay with our kids! He and Meg are SO kind and thoughtful and we couldn't have asked for a better set up. If you aren't familiar with Crystal Lake, it is a beautiful, clear, sand bottom lake-even in March, and the beach is only steps away from this cabin! We sat on the beach while the kids played in the sand (with the borrowed sand toys, as we forgot ours-thank you!!), grilled a couple of times, walked to Papanos for pizza, and had a fire pit out in front of the cabin one night while we had a picturesque view of the water. We also walked into Beulah to sit outside at Five Shores (highly recommend)! The cabin is close to Frankfort, Crystal Mountain, and only about an hour from our favorite wineries in Traverse City. We will certainly be back in summer AND winter!

Wonderful Winter Getaway
We had such a wonderful stay! Brian could not have been more helpful, check-in was easy, and the cabin was cozy and comfortable. So close to downtown Beulah, a very short drive to Frankfort, and close to so many winter outdoor activities (hiking/snowshoeing/sledding). We would definitely say here again!

Great spot, nice little cabin
Hosts were very prompt and helpful with communications. Loved the location with lake view and small stretch of private beach. They provided all kinds of extras - from snacks and water to a firepit with firewood to access to bikes and paddle boards (which we didn't use since it's November, but still).

Great Location and Hosts
We spent two weeks here and really enjoyed it. It's a great location and we were never at a loss for something to do. The cabin was quaint and well appointed. We enjoyed a mix of meals in and some local dining with outdoor seating (even during Covid 19). One of our favorite activities was to ride our bikes to Five Shores Brewing. The cabin is close to Natl Park hiking and Lake MI. We enjoyed trips to the beach, hiking in the woods, St Ambrose Cellars, Glen Haven, and the bike trails. My husband loved the fishing. The sunsets were gorgeous with a different "show" every night. The cabin was clean, and the kitchen had everything we needed. The WIFI worked great. I was able to zoom my yoga classes with no glitches. Brian was a great host - helpful and friendly and never intrusive. He offered terrific suggestions for activities and restaurants. We appreciated their attention to safety during covid.

Lake get away!
This cottage was perfect for a week on the lake. Brian was very accommodating - from quick responses to helping us with having our boat with us to “surprise” wine in the frig. The lake is beautiful and there are so many things to do near by. Would highly recommend this cottage in Beulah!!!

Great location & host
We enjoyed staying in the cozy cabin on Crystal Lake and making s'mores on the beach while enjoying the sundown. Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore is just a few minutes away, with pleanty of stuff to do. Restaurants and ice cream are in walking distance in Beulah. Brian took excellent care of us, and kids will be happy with all the beach toys.

AMAZING stay at Crystal Lake!
Our family had a truly perfect stay at this beachfront home on Crystal Lake! This was our first trip to Northern Michigan in over 10 years, as we typically go to the New Buffalo/Union Pier area from Chicago. The extra few hours were absolutely worth the drive, as we were rewarded with a lovely private beach and outstanding sunsets on beautiful Crystal Lake. The nicely-outfitted cabin had so many extras... kayaks, life jackets, firepit with complimentary first-night firewood, charcoal grill with chimney starter. The owner went above-and-beyond to offer the extras that made this vacation really special! The cabin itself was in great condition and had a nice assortment of cooking pans/tools. It is not a large cabin... two queen beds plus three twins in the loft (those would be great for little kiddos). The living area is compact but has a new TV and opens to the kitchen... with great views on to the lawn and lake. We loved walking down to the beach whenever we wanted, and again, the sunsets were outstanding. The local Marina was very accommodating for our boat rental (book two weeks in advance for the best selection) and we had a great day boating/tubing on Crystal Lake. Beulah is a charming town with great places to eat (Ursa Major cafe was outstanding for coffee and breakfast), the local deli was delicious too! Just 7 miles away is charming Frankfort, with a beautiful Lake Michigan beach, shopping and StormCloud Brewery. Also just 20-25 minutes to Sleeping Bear Dunes (the scenic drive there is great), and 30-45 minutes to Traverse City. Oh and the tubes/kayaks down the Platte River are fun! We wish we had more time to explore more of the area's features, but our own private beach was always a draw for evenings and many days just spent hanging out. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!
