Welcome to the Congregational Summer Assembly (CSA)! Step back in time to this wholesome, peaceful resort offering family events and activities. The seasonal activities are posted weekly and include arts and crafts, dancing, tennis, watersports, theater, bible studies, nature observation, area history, yoga, swimming lessons, and water aerobics. This community has multiple tennis and pickleball courts and offers private beach access to Crystal Lake and Lake Michigan.

Step inside this wooded, rustic cabin with a recent addition of a primary bedroom with a king bed, half bath, fireplace, and walk-out deck, offering a place to rest and relax. The cozy kitchen has everything you need to cook meals with a small electric oven and stovetop. The living room has a propane stove for heat and opens to a screened-in porch, which has a dining room table and additional relaxed seating. The porch is the perfect place to sit for meals between activities, play games, read, or build puzzles. Take the stairs up to the loft where the second floor has been sectioned into 3 sleeping areas-2 with queen beds, and 1 with twin bunks. Open the windows to appreciate the sounds of nature and the gentle evening breezes.

From the house, you can walk or drive to all the fun on the property. Time moves slower here and the opportunities for enjoyment are endless. The exclusivity of activities to just the residents and their guests throughout the summer allows for new friendships to be made. During your weeklong stay you will make many memories and it may become your groups annual summer vacation tradition.
