About this property

Early June and September Discounts!

Delight in this rare opportunity for seclusion on Crystal Lake. Enjoy natural wonders while staying in this unique home. The Lodge is nestled in 3 acres of woods and enjoys lake views out both the front and the rear of the home. The 150 foot private beachfront on Crystal Lake is directly across the road from the house, 160 feet from your vacation home to the water's edge. Round Lake and Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore adjoin the property to the north and a creek meanders through. Deer, fox, sandhill cranes, (green herons this year!) and bald eagles are frequent visitors.

The Lodge is clean and spacious. There is plenty of room to find private spaces even if you are with a larger group. The fully furnished five bedroom/three bath home sleeps 2 - 12. The two story great room features a field stone wall with a gas fireplace. The loft has 2 bedrooms each with a private deck and spectacular views. Lodge rooms are appointed with artwork from local artists.

A screen 'sleeping' porch with a full size futon couch is attached to one of the main floor bedrooms. The porch over looks Round Lake. The porch can be a quiet place to escape with a book, away from the common areas. Also a real treat for sleeping, the porch offers the comforts of home and the sights, sounds & smells of sleeping outdoors.

The Lodge works well for multiple families & groups. It can also provide a tranquil retreat space for smaller gatherings. It is well suited for reunions of family and friends, yoga retreats, spa weekends, long weekends with the guys or gals, as well as a base location for wedding parties.

The Lodge is located seven miles from the MDNR boat launch on the south side of Crystal Lake. The sandy private beach on Crystal Lake offers a safe, secluded area perfect for swimming, canoeing, kayaking, fishing, water skiing, and sailing. If you are bringing or renting a boat, please provide your own mooring. Beach amenities include a dock and a fire pit at the water's edge.

And while we hope for good weather during your stay, the house is equipped with a large generator that turns on automatically in the event of a power outage.

The surrounding area has much to offer for outdoor recreation and site seeing. Nearby communities of Beulah, Frankfort and Empire are unique, charming, and free of traffic and chain stores. Galleries, boutiques and fine dining restaurants abound. We are happy to make recommendations to our favorite restaurants, breweries, wineries and award winning distilleries, all in the immediate area. Point Betsie lighthouse is a 5 mile drive or bike ride from the Lodge. Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore, begins right here, in our back yard. M-22 is a lovely drive through the park to Lake Michigan beaches, the Platte River, the dune climb and Pierce Stocking Scenic Drive. Frankfort is a deep water port on Lake Michigan with public boat access. There are many good charter captains in the area for salmon and trout fishing on the big lake. There are seven outstanding golf courses within 20 minutes. Located 2 miles from Crystal Downs Country Club and 24 miles from Arcadia Bluffs, the Lodge is a perfect location for golf weekends.

Fresh, locally grown products are readily available at farmer's markets & farm stands. A wide variety of mostly organic local produce, eggs and meats, flowers, syrups and honey are easily available. Northwestern Michigan wine country is just to the north with over 20 tasting rooms in Leelanau County.

This home is a treasure and a true sanctuary, providing an escape on one of the most beautiful lakes in the world. Please contact us if you have questions or would like a tour.

Enjoyed Crystal Lake Lodge
The Lodge is quite large and accommodated our group of 3 generations as well as extended family. The upstairs area worked out great for our daughter and her 2 kids. The primary bedroom was spacious and off to one side for privacy. The deck was huge with a lot of seating and a dining area. The location was great - Crystal Lake is a very short walk away. There is a nice seating area on the lake. The water is amazingly clear, and the lake is perfect for kayaking. Grandkids loved the dock and the kayaks! Not a 5-star hotel but lake house rustic. Mary, the owner, has made some significant upgrades. She stayed in touch with us during our visit and was very sweet. We enjoyed our stay there.

About the host

Hosted by Mary

Host profile image
I have been the host/owner of this property since 2010. (thirteen years of 5 star reviews!) It is my home and I am a hands on manager. I live and swim a mile down the road from the Lodge, so I am almost always available. Love of water and the outdoors is what motivates me and it is why I have chosen to live on Crystal Lake in beautiful Benzie County.

Why they chose this property

Crystal Lake and the many opportunities for outdoor adventures. It is a beautiful property and I am grateful to have it. It is a joy to share it with others who appreciate it.

What makes this property unique

This home is a real treasure. The architecture is interesting. The home is a copy of a house in the Cortina ski area of Italy. The property is wild, with all native plants. A stay at the lodge provides an outdoor experience while enjoying the comforts of a beautiful home.
