Spacious Betsie River Cabin by Crystal Mtn. 5bd+2ba+Loft+Game Rm+Fire Pit+AC!

Create your own family memories in this beautifully renovated Betsie River cabin with over 165' of prime direct river frontage & private dock. Tucked back close to state land on two acres of mature hardwoods and pines, this 'family friendly' updated cabin with 5 nice size bedrooms plus a loft will easily sleep 14 in beds. There is also an additional powered queen air mattress at your disposal for another two if needed. House also has Central Air Conditioning and fast Fiber Internet.

Whether it be kids playing/wading in the water, fly fishing for Steelhead, Salmon or Trout, serving up a family game of backyard sand volleyball, or simply enjoying a nice fire inside or out with friends and family, your vacation retreat awaits! This cabin has gone through an interior remodel and provides an updated kitchen with updated appliances & granite countertops. Large bedrooms also have closets to store all of your gear. The kitchen is fully stocked with everything you need for multi-family stays and cooking. Cabin has two full bathrooms. (One main floor and one upstairs).

Rainy Day? We have you covered. A large basement game room has ping pong, foosball, shuffleboard, electric dartboard, Fullsize Pac-Man arcade with 14 games, 55” Smart TV & game table with many games that are perfect for keeping everyone entertained. A river rock stone wood-burning fireplace will keep you warm and cozy on cooler nights in the great room and the large screened in porch is perfect for listening to river while enjoying your favorite libation or catching up with friends/family. The cabin also has a spacious outdoor deck with patio table & chairs, Weber propane grill and a fantastic stamped concrete firepit area with plenty of Adirondack chairs that are great for listening to river after a busy day of activities. (Limited firewood provided as a courtesy) A full-size sand volleyball court with nearby outdoor hot/cold shower are at your disposal as well.

Outdoor games such as Corn Hole, Washer Toss, Bocce Ball & Kan Jam are provided in shed. A 4'x12' private dock is on the property and provides easy access to the river with swim ladder. The Betsie River is a great shallow river for Steelhead, Salmon and Trout fishing as well as canoeing and kayaking. Also great for smaller kids to safely play around off of the dock. We also have the property sprayed May through Sept. for Mosquitos and Ticks just to be safe. State Snowmobile & ATV/UTV trails are also very close outside the neighborhood for summer/winter fun.

Located just four miles from Crystal Mountain Resort and Spa you have skiing, golf, biking, pool/hot tub, outdoor water park, a beautiful spa & fitness center, high-ropes, climbing wall, laser tag along and many other activities waiting for you. (Nominal daily fee applies) The cabin is also a short drive to Arcadia & Frankfort Lake Michigan Beaches, Traverse City, Crystal Lake in Beulah, Sleeping Bear Dunes, Platte River Rafting, Bear Lake and Manistee. The popular Iron Fish Distillery is just across other side of river from cabin and St. Ambrose Cellars & Tasting Room (Mead/Wine/Beer) just 15mins north. So many things to do and places to see that are close to cabin, although the privacy and peacefulness of the cabin may be all you need.
