Beautiful Crystal Lake at Our Casa De Lago

Beulah, Michigan, United States

Our property is located on crystal-clear Crystal Lake, known as one of the ten most beautiful inland lakes in the world. Our home is quaint and inspiring. Outside the door, and just across a lightly used one lane road, is 60 feet of frontage on the lake. brbrIn regard to the one lane road: It is a public street, but is used primarily by the owners and renters on the south side of Crystal Lake. Most of the traffic you will experience will be bikers, joggers, and walkers. Yes, for the safety of all staying at the cottage, you do have to be aware of the occasional cars that slowly drive by, but for the most part the car traffic is limited to the people living in the cottages over the summer.brbrWe have sand for the kids to play in, and a nice dock to swim, lounge, or watch the sunsets from each night. The lake is nine miles in length and up to two miles in width. It is great for fishing and all water sports. We even have a mooring for your boat. There is a nice fire pit for making s'mores or to sit around in the evening. A 'rail-to-trail' is available just outside the front door that gives the outdoor enthusiasts the opportunity to walk, jog, or bike upon. The full length of the trail is about 24 miles.brbrWe are only one mile from the small town of Beulah, Michigan. It has nice shops for the shoppers. It is a small town that takes you back to living in the late 50's and 60's, minus all the typical franchises that often decorate most other cities. There is even a neat drive-in theater (Cherry Bowl) just down M-31 about three miles from Beulah. It has double features each evening. Everybody just loves it. It was built in 1953 and still has that 50's environment (Elvis, Marilyn Monroe, James Dean etc.).brbrThe beautiful city of Frankfort, Michigan is only five miles West of our cottage. It is a quaint picturesque port city with great dining, shopping, ICE CREAM, and Lake Michigan Beaches.brbrThe famous Sleeping Bear Dunes are less than an hour north of us. In fact, you will be with an hour's reach of many Northern Michigan tourist sights and other activities for small day trips if that interests you.brbrI know that pets are important to the family. If you are interested in bringing the family pet along, please call us to discuss that possibility.brbrWe are very proud of our cottage. It is nestled in an area that we like to think of as our 'Little Paradise' or 'Heaven on Earth'. Whatever the case, we invite you to enjoy the beauty of Northern Michigan and enjoy the breath-taking views of one of the most beautiful lakes in the world!!!brbrKeywords: House

Cottage Perfection on Crystal Lake--Make great family memories!

Beulah, Michigan, United States

Nestled between the beach towns of Beulah (~4 miles away) and Frankfort (~12 miles away), this family cottage sits on 105 feet of Crystal Lake perfection. As one of the largest inland lakes in Michigan, Crystal Lake is special with its clear, sandy bottom and limited boat traffic. Swimming is divine, especially for those new swimmers who will be amazed at the long shallow entry to this majestic lake. It is a short drive to the renowned lighthouses at Pt. Betsie and Frankfort, with Lake Michigan beach excursions waiting nearby at Platte River Point or Empire Beach. The Sleeping Bear Dunes are also just to the north, offering plentiful opportunities to make memories in nature on land and or in the water. With extensive hiking trails, local brewpubs, world class golf (Arcadia Dunes, among others), fishing (charters galore), skiing (Crystal Mountain) and a short drive to wine country and the bustle of Traverse City, Suttons Bay, Glen Arbor, and Leland, this location offers access to the finest of Northern Michigan. brbrThe Lodge at Crystal Lake offers three bedrooms (Queen & Twin, 2 Twins, and Queen & Twin) and two full baths and is decorated thoughtfully with nods to many local artists. The kitchen is well-appointed to truly make this a home away from home. And, the open floor plan offers a large living and dining area, with generous views of the lake, opening to a newly installed wooden deck and slate patio, and your own private piece of Crystal Lake. brbrThe outdoor space offers much to enjoy, from sunrise to sunset. Lounge in the adirondacks over a cup of morning coffee, take paddleboards out to explore the lake, host a lakeside dinner with the outdoor dining set, send the kids to the sandbox or driveway basketball hoop, try some gourmet s’more recipes at an evening campfire, and watch the stars shine or a storm roll through lakeside or right out the front windows. And, of course, swim for hours in the crystal clear water and shallow sandy bottoms that stretch hundreds of feet before dropping off into some of the deepest inland waters in the state. brbrBedding and towels are supplied, and there is an onsite washer and dryer. (Bring your own beach towels.) There is wireless internet throughout with tvs in both the living room and master bedroom. brbrThis is the perfect rental for families or those looking for a peaceful getaway. We dearly love our neighbors who are summer residents, so please no party bookings. WE WILL NOT ACCEPT TRAVELERS WITH MORE THAN EIGHT GUESTS AT ANY POINT DURING THEIR STAY, WITHOUT EXPRESSED APPROVAL BY OWNERS.
