Our cottage is ideal for 5 (our price is based on 6 guests) and we have had up to 11 with enjoyment for all. For sleeping we have a QUEEN SLEEP NUMBER BED in main bedroom (sleeps 2). There is a double bed in lower level bedroom plus another all purpose room/bedroom with twin trundle bed (sleeps 2). We have had guests bring their own air mattresses and bedding to fit more people. We can discuss this, we are pretty much happy if you are. Amazing view in the main living area. Brand new open kitchen including cooking utensils, stove/oven/air fryer, microwave, toaster, refrigerator/freezer and coffee maker. This is a beautiful kitchen. I am very proud of. Bar sits 4-6 comfortably with two tables on deck. There is also a table at the deck on the beach with a large awning for shade. And a bar at the beach. We have a charcoal grill for guest and there is a cooler down at the beach for guests as well under the awning. The deck has a fantastic view with seating. There are lots of toys for the little one down at the beach. While supplies last... Parents must get the toys our for their child. Parents must put the toys away for the next guest. Many parents trust their children to do it and this does not work. The parents must make sure the toys are back where they belong. For the adults there is a canoe, 2 kayaks, All while supplies last... We store our pontoon on the dock that we use from time to time but other than that the beach is private. Please don’t let anyone on the pontoon. This cottage is our happy place. We waited our entire lives to find this home on Crystal lake. It was built by a student of Francis Lloyd Wright and you can see it in his attention to detail and love he put into this house. When I walk into my cottage my troubles just seem to melt away from my shoulders. I can breathe easier. I sleep better. I wake up in the mornings and have my coffee on the peaceful balcony and watch the quiet, calm lake and just breathe. I make a pitcher of iced tea and take it out to the beach along with my favorite book and read until the sun tells me it's time to jump in the lake or float on my float tubes. I usually end up in the kayak or on a paddle board watching the sandy bottom go by and counting fish. When we start to get hungry we bbq on the grill. In the evening we light a fire in the lake side fire place and make smores as we watch the sun set. Then we search for constellations and count shooting stars. Our beach is pretty private so I usually end up sneaking back into the lake for a midnight swim to cool down, float on my back and watch the stars some more. Then we go sit in the balcony for a late night glass of wine. We go to bed and get lulled to sleep by the lapping of the lake on the shore line.

Our kids loved playing off the dock and in the sand. We enjoyed the kayaks too. The house is complete with all the necessities. The kitchen was stocked well and the living space was enough for our family of five to relax comfortably. We enjoyed sunsets and sunrises from the front deck. The only concern we had were cars driving fast down the road directly in front of the house. 5/5 stay! ##### kelly l. Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Nathan R.

Like the property description says it is a small kitchen There was spices, sugar, coffee filters etc.. Had a wedding the day of check in, we noticed day before was empty. We asked if we could check in early to get ready. Owner let us check in early was much appreciated. Owner responded very quickly. ##### Nathan R.

First let me say that when it comes to location and beach amenities this place was excellent. We all spent most of the day on the beach. The home as described is somewhat quirky but very spacious with enough room for at least 6 people. Kitchen is small but easily big enough to prepare meals for our family. We would definitely go back to this home and plan to do so next summer. Our friend were staying about 8 houses down the street and were at on our beach with us the entire time because of the sitting area and amenities. ##### Elaina V.

The beach at the property provides hours of endless fun with kayaks, paddle boards, ample lounging and eating areas. Shade and sun are available. The views from the house, deck, and beach are truly amazing. The kitchen, living, bedrooms, and bath were all super clean and equipped for anything you would need. We ate every meal outside to enjoy the stunning Crystal Lake views. If you explore the area you will find wonderful places to bike, hike and beach enjoying the outdoors. The Betsie River Trail, Empire Bluff Trail, and Point Betsie Lighthouse are just a couple of the spots we enjoyed immensely. Meg the host communicated well with us and took extra care to make sure our stay was great. The little details for comfort and charm are definitely there with this cute little cottage. We love this area and this cottage. We can’t wait to return. Highly recommend. ##### Michelle B. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Samip K.
