Bison Acres Close to Crystal Mt with Hot Tub

Welcome to Bison Acres located just minutes from Downtown Beulah, St. Ambrose Cellars, Lake Michigan, Crystal Mountain Ski Resort, snowmobile trails, and so much more! This sprawling ranch offers unique all-season lodging that sleeps up to 15 guests between the property's main cabin and the separate bunkhouse located above the garage, lovingly referred to as "The Cabin" and "The Shed." Guests will enjoy 9 acres on a private lot with plenty of open space to explore plus an outdoor jacuzzi/hot tub!

We are now welcoming small events like weddings, reunions, and birthdays! All events must be preapproved, sign our event agreement, pay a separate event fee, and provide proof of event insurance. Inquired today for more information about our event hosting policy.

The Cabin is a modern-built log home that features beautiful woodwork throughout the main level open floor plan. Boasting such amenities as a main-level master bedroom with a king-size bed and large closet, a sleeper sofa, gas fireplace, smart TV, a spacious bathroom, and a full-size washer and dryer. The upper-level loft sleeps four guests and has a pack-n-play crib set up for the little ones.

The upper level of The Shed is one large great room that can sleep seven guests and has been updated with your comfort in mind. There is plenty of extra bedding and pillows for the queen-sized pull-out couch plus lots of games and a second smart TV. The Shed's three-quarter bathroom is located off the ski boot/mudroom on the main level. (Note: The Shed is not connected to The Cabin.

The Shed is heated by the electric fireplace, an Eden Pure Electric Heater, and two-mini splits. The mini-splits also conveniently offer air conditioning, but both The Cabin and The Shed also have window unit air conditioners. Although guests do not have the ability to park in the garage, they will need to access it to roll the grill out into the driveway for use. Guests will also find lawn games like Cornhole, a beach umbrella, and extra fans there. Guests are welcome to bring their boats, trailers, ATVs, and snowmobiles! We just ask that you are mindful not to tear up our lawn. RVs are also welcome; however, we do not have an outside electrical or water hookup. Firewood is available for purchase on-site via a cashbox system provided by a local vendor.

Best get away trip!
You will not be disappointed here! I came up with my buddies and our girlfriends, 12 people total. There was more than enough room. The pictures do not do this place justice the property is so beautiful and big. The house is extremely organized and clean. I was expecting it to be the normal up north house with bugs everywhere and a little dirty but everything was spotless. They provided a lot of toilet paper and paper towels. They also have any yard games you can think of which was so much fun to do with our group. They also have a big sign out front with lights on so when we came back to the house at night it was very easy to spot! We would definitely recommend and we will definitely be back!!

Bison Acres
The property itself was fantastic, very private with plenty of space. The space easily hosted 15 people. The sleeping arrangements were fairly tight for 15 people, but it would be reasonable for 10-12 single people or 7 couples to stay, given the need to share beds. Plenty of towels/linens/pillows etc. There was notable trash under beds that seemed to have been pushed there, which did not detract from the experience. The hot tub cleaning solution was not pre-measured as started but was easy to do. Plenty of cooking utensils and pans. Host was very responsive and easy to reach. Truly a fantastic overall property as a getaway. Would highly recommend and return if had a large group again.

Family Vacation at Bison Acres
Me and my family had a fantastic time at Bison Acres. We felt very welcome with an easy check-in and a welcome gift from a local vendor. They were quick to respond to a question about the hot tub and even serviced the hot tub to make sure everything was perfect for our stay. We enjoyed the hot tub, firepit, fully stocked kitchen, yard games, smart tv and wonderful outside space (especially the porch and porch swing). It is a great place!

Lots of space to relax, close to skiing
Bison Acres is a cute cabin with second building that can sleep 6-8 in each building easily. There is one bathroom per building so it worked great for the 6 of us - the kids got their own space. The on site laundry is great. The property is organized and the kitchen is well stocked with pots, pans and gadgets to make a meal. Bring soap. And TP if staying longer than a weekend or with lots of people. This property has streaming!!! Netflix etc. 9 miles to Crystal. 5 miles to Benzonia. 30 minutes to TC. Nice hot tub. St Ambrose distillery is one mile down the road. Had a great dinner in one of their outdoor igloos. The first time you approach the property, it's super hard to find. You have to spot the address on the mailbox on the other side of the street while driving on a fast road. The owners really need to put up a sign that says "Bison Acres." Honestly, that's what I was looking for and would have been helpful. We never spotted bison during our stay. 😜
