The whole family had a wonderful time celebrating my husband’s birthday! Thank you!
We had a fantastic time! Great location, close to grocery stores, an hour from TC wineries and right on the water. Paul was great and communicated well. We even had the opportunity to meet the neighbors and they were very friendly. Would highly recommend to anyone wanting to visit Frankfort area!
Great lakefront spot to spend with family!
We had such a wonderful stay at this lakefront home! Our group of 2 adults and 4 kids had plenty of space, and the big yard was perfect for the kids to run around and play for hours. The lake was absolutely beautiful—peaceful, clean, and so relaxing.
The kids had so much fun exploring the water and using the kids kayaks, while we enjoyed the incredible views from the dock and shoreline. The home felt quiet and private, making it easy to truly unwind.
The location was also fantastic, with so many nearby activities, shops, and places to explore. We loved being close to the bike path which takes you to both Beulah and Frankfort, and the house is close to Sleeping Bear Dunes. We would absolutely stay here again!
Our family with seven kids ages 3 to 18. Enjoyed our stay on Crystal Lake. The water was beautiful and this location made it easy to swim out to the sandbar.
