Family Visit

My husband, sister in law and brother in law had a wonderful stay at the Boathouse. So comfortable and perfectly located to Dad who lives at a Care Facility close by. This was our third time at this home. For us it feels like coming home. We refuse to stay anywhere else when coming to the area. We look forward to coming back again hopefully in the fall.

Great space for a family get together!

It was a super space for a family getting together with new in-laws and a new grand-daughter. We were close to family and and they could come to the house to celebrate the holiday in a family friendly space with a great view.

Great Property

Our family had a fun vacation at the Cottage on Crystal Lake again. It was our second time staying here. It's a great place to relax plus we had everything we needed. Loved the view of the lake along with dock fishing and the nearby beach for the grandkids. Great VRBO property.

Relaxing

Welcome our first impression as we arrived @ our lake cottage. Upon entering the lake view amazing & a place we spent much time relaxing fishing, kayaking, water boarding & canoeing. Home was clean, well supplied, w/ comfy beds, 3 baths, upper & lower seating w/ lower level providing games & comfy seating for viewing movies. In town for an extended weekend w/ family wedding. Great place of retreat between events. Shawn was great to respond to any ??’s. Highly recommend & look forward to future visits!
