About this house rental

Built in 2015, Fern Hill is a modern-day cabin on a private drive with a cozy yet open-to-nature feel. Situated upon a ridge on five acres of heavily wooded property, it offers privacy as well as a stunning view of Crystal Lake. It is not uncommon to see deer, turkey, woodpeckers, owls, and other wildlife on the land.

Comfortably sleeping six people, the cabin has two private bedrooms and a roomy loft, all with queen-sized beds. A futon in the loft may be used for a seventh sleeper. The master bedroom has an attached full bath. A second full bath is also located on the main floor.

It has a fully-equipped modern kitchen with microwave, dishwasher, garbage disposal, and electric appliances. The dining table comfortably seats 8. A washer, dryer, and DVD player are available. Also offered are:
• A fire pit for sunset bonfires (with wood provided)
• A large front deck
• An outside grill
• Beautiful lake and woodland views
• Nearby public access to beaches and marinas
• Five-minute drives to Frankfort or Beulah
• The Betsie Trail for hiking or biking (access within 1/4 mile)

Please note that there is no internet, cable, or satellite TV. This is an "off-the-grid" modern cabin that is fantastic for enjoying the finer moments in life. If internet is needed, the public library in Frankfort is wonderful, as is the internet speed at Stormcloud Brewing in Frankfort and Five Shores Brewing in Beulah. Cell reception is also very good for Verizon and T-Mobile.

** We are proud of our reputation for cleanliness. Please be assured we use FDA-approved antiviral, antimicrobial, and natural cleaning products. We also schedule a vacancy of at least a full day between guest stays.**

This is our dream home, waiting for our full retirement. Until then, enjoy it! May it bring you pleasant memories and good experiences.

We all appreciated the lovely landscape, accessible location and thoughtfully cared for property. The quiet site was restful and offered a great spot to launch day trips, hang out in and return to after a day on the beach, dunes, or in local communities. Small issue worthy of note, the upstairs couch/futon is a single, not a double bed.

This property was very conveniently located with an amazing view of Crystal Lake peeking through the trees from the living room. The house was clean and having access to the washer and dryer was nice. If coming with more than four people, I would recommend bringing extra towels/rags as the host only leaves four sets.

We had a wonderful stay at this property during a long weekend visiting friends from college and spending time at Crystal Lake and the Frankfort Beach. The home was perfect for our three kids, my wife, and myself. The house had up-scale amenities (I enjoyed the coffee mugs) and a gorgeous view of Crystal Lake from the big living room window. The beds were also very comfortable.

This house was perfect for our family and had more than enough room! I love how its in the woods and has privacy. The large deck was amazing and perfect for hanging out at night after dinner with card games. There is a little view of Crystal Lake, which was a bonus and we were even able to watch some fireworks from the deck. We were only a short drive away from stores, the Frankfort beach on Lake Michigan, our family cottages on Crystal Lake, the parade in downtown Beulah and Crystal Mountain. It couldn't have been a better location for us. The house was well stocked with supplies which was appreciated. We enjoyed our stay so much we might just have to come back next year!

This property is a perfect place to relax and explore the Frankfort area. So many things to do within a short distance and the suggestions from the owners are quiet helpful in planning excursions. Just sitting on the deck and taking in the woods, the wildflower garden, and the view of Crystal Lake was good for the soul.
