This home was made for a couple (or solo traveler!) looking for some lake fun away from it all. The tile details and wood paneling evoke a simpler time and a vintage lakeside vibe. Guests can also enjoy the use of a 14” aluminum rowboat with included life jackets of various sizes. No one does the lake closer than this spunky home.

What's nearby:
The couldn't-be-closer setting on Crystal Lake is just the beginning. Point Betsie Lighthouse (just under six miles away) is the perfect gateway to Lake Michigan. This home is also within nine miles of Long Lake, Rush Lake, Platte Lake, and Little Platte Lake. Cherry Bowl Drive-In Theatre provides fun viewing during the summer season just over eight miles away. Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore offers hiking and lovely views just over 22 miles away.
