About Crystal Lake
Crystal Lake is located in beautiful Benzie County in Michigan’s Lower Peninsula. Covering just under 10,000 acres, it’s the ninth largest inland lake in the state and amongst the cleanest lakes in the United States boasting crystal clear blue waters.

Crystal Lake and the surrounding townships are beloved by those who love Michigan’s raw and natural beauty and the rurality of Northern Michigan. On sunny days, the turquoise hues of the lake rival that of the Caribbean. You’ll discover endless opportunities for boating, fishing, swimming, tubing and beyond. There’s nothing more
refreshing than a dip in Crystal Lake on a hot summer afternoon.

As if the lake itself weren’t enough, the surrounding townships are incredibly charming. Grab ice cream in the tiny town of Beulah, venture to the Lake Michigan shoreline in Frankfort, or make the 25-mile jaunt to Traverse City.
.
The cottage is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 3 bathrooms, and a balcony, and there's space to spread out with 5 bedrooms. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a fireplace, and a coffee maker.
