Perfect weekend getaway!
My girlfriends and I stayed for the weekend and absolutely fell in love with this place! The place is beautifully decorated, clean, and had everything we needed. The quaint downtown Beulah is an easy stroll down the road with the stunning Crystal Lake view right across the road. The hot tub was a real treat and would really be the cherry on top after a day on the slopes in the winter too! I will definitely be booking here again.
