Welcome to Beulah, Michigan’s “Blown Away,” a cottage aptly named after Crystal Lake’s unique and ever shifting waves, breezes, clear waters, and unforgettable sunsets.

Upon entering this West facing home, guests encounter an unobstructed view of the entire length of 10,000 acre Crystal Lake. Guests can enjoy this beautiful view inside, behind floor to ceiling windows, or outside, from the large, elevated deck.

Recently renovated, the 4 bedroom/2 bathcottage includes all new furnishings, appliances, electronics, and cooking utensils to help make your stay comfortable, fun, and relaxing.

The main floor offers fantastic lake views from the kitchen, dining area, and living room. The living room faces the lake. It features lofted ceilings, full-length windows, slider to the deck and includes comfortable seating around a Smart HDTV and gas fireplace. High speed internet and Sonos speakers support streaming needs and allow guests to play their favorite tunes throughout the home.

The kitchen features updated cabinets, granite countertops and all the amenities- including large fridge with ice maker, built-in microwave, regular and Keurig coffee makers, and gas range. The kitchen is stocked with flatware, dinnerware, drinkware, cookware, and baking, cooking and bar tools.

The first floor dining area includes an expandable dining table that seats 6-8.

The cottage sleeps 11 comfortably. The king bedroom is located on the first floor, next to a full bathroom with walk in shower and large closet stocked with plenty of bath and beach towels.

A laundry room with speed queen washer and dryer completes the main floor.

Upstairs, a desk and work area overlook the Lake. The loft also includes a large bedroom with three built-in, extra-long twin beds, ample storage, and kids play area.

Downstairs, guests will appreciate another living room centered around a second Smart HDTV and more lake views. A kitchenette and second eating area include a table for another 4-6 people (the “kid’s table”) and a second refrigerator/freezer to store extra food and drinks.

The second full bath with walk in shower and bedrooms 3 and 4 are also downstairs. One bedroom includes a queen bed and twin bunk beds. The other is equipped with a queen bed.

The basement is walk-out and provides easy access to a roomy hot tub, grilling area, lawn, private sandy beach and 80 ft. dock.

Additional outdoor highlights include a large composite deck, dining table that seats 8-10 and spacious lounge area and gas firepit. An 11 ft moveable umbrella provides ample and adaptable shade.

The lawn is large enough for bocce, badminton and other lawn games. Arguably the best outdoor feature is the private beach and sandy bottomed, clear Crystal Lake.

Directly across the quiet street in front of the cottage, guests will find a tennis court and small playground with swings and a slide.

Downtown Beulah, ice cream, restaurants, Beulah Beach, pickle ball, and Five Shores Brewery are a short walk or bike ride away. The cottage also enjoys close and easy access to the Betsie Valley Hiking and Biking Trail. The quaint town of Frankfort and Lake Michigan are a 10 minute drive away. Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore, Crystal Mountain Spa and Ski Resort, Platte River Beach are also nearby. Traverse City, Manistee, Glen Arbor and Arcadia Bluffs are all within a short drive.

    What a beautiful house! We stayed here for a quick weekend skiing at Crystal Mountain. The location was great, only about 20 minutes away. The house is near restaurants, coffee shops, and a grocery store. The house was clean and comfortable and the hot tub was welcome after a day on the slopes. I am sure it would be amazing in the summer - just walk right out to Crystal Lake! We would not hesitate to stay here again.

    The moment you step into this lovely cottage you are in Pure Michigan vacation mode. We made many family memories playing and relaxing at the cottage's private waterfront. Its turquoise, clear water and sandy entry make for blissful beach days. The kids absolutely loved it! The fully equipped kitchen made meals easy and the deck was great for dining al fresco. We wrapped up every sun soaked day enjoying the sunset over the lake followed by a dip in the hot tub under the patio lights. The accommodations are plush and cozy and the area is peaceful and quiet. The very responsive hosts have thought of every little detail to make this cottage the perfect getaway. Our stay was a highlight of our summer and we can't wait to return to this little paradise!

    What a perfect spot! The location is perfect! You can't beat being right on Crystal Lake and the views of the lake are just about perfect, especially for sunsets. You're also just a short walk away from the cute town of Beulah with restaurants, a brewery, shops. There's a great path/trail that goes right along the lake, perfect for walks or runs (and biking in the summer!). Crystal Mountain is just a short drive away but you're also near Sleeping Bear Dunes, Traverse City, Frankfort, and the Lake Michigan coast! The place itself is clean and beautifully finished. Everything is updated and lovely. The large back deck would be perfect in summer! And you can't beat having a hottub in the back with lake views. Would love to come back to enjoy the water and Michigan summers!

    We enjoyed it all...from the house, the beach, the lake, the hot tub, and the deck. But, the sunsets were absolutely amazing...each night was different but equally beautiful. The house was probably the best stocked house we've ever stayed in and was very clean. The owners left us a welcoming gift which we enjoyed our first night there. Loved the spacious deck...I don't think we ate inside for any meal. Would definitely recommend.

    From the turquoise color crystal clear water during the day to the sunsets at night, this house has the best view of any VRBO we’ve stayed in. The house is clean, comfortable, beautifully decorated and in a great location. We used our scooters to get to lunch at Le Chaiyim and a drink at 5 Shores in downtown Beulah and walked the Betsie Trail every morning with our kids. The hosts have thought of all the little details and the place is well stocked with anything you would need. The owner was friendly, the beds were super comfortable and the deck and beach were awesome places to hang out. Our kids will never forget the hours spent catching cray fish off the dock and then running back and forth from the lake to the hot tub. We can’t wait to be back!
