About this house rental
Welcome to Villa Crystal — Your Ultimate Crystal Lake Retreat
Escape to Villa Crystal, a spacious lakefront getaway on the pristine shores of Crystal Lake, one of Northern Michigan`s most sought after destinations. Designed for unforgettable gatherings and year-round fun, this modern retreat blends laid-back luxury with nonstop entertainment.
Please note: Our private beach is accessed by crossing a country road. Children must be supervised at all times.
Wake Up to Crystal Lake Views
Start your mornings with a cup of coffee from the coffee bar and shimmering lake views from the balcony. With lake views from multiple rooms, Villa Crystal offers a peaceful setting to rest, recharge, and reconnect.
Private Crystal Lake Frontage
With 100 feet of Crystal Lake frontage, spend your days swimming, floating, and soaking up the sun on one of Michigan’s clearest lakes. Evenings are made for smores at the firepit at sunset, stargazing from the hot tub, and long conversations under open skies. Every season offers something special — from summer lake days to cozy winter escapes after skiing. A dock is available for guest use between Memorial Day and Labor Day, and we’ve partnered with local boat rental companies that can deliver directly to the dock. Depending on lake conditions and boat size, guests may be asked to use a mooring ball we provide rather than tie their boat directly to the dock.
Trilevel Home Layout
The main entrance is on the lower level, which features the game room, a kitchenette, a bunk bedroom with twin over twin bunks and a queen bedroom.
The main level (second floor) includes the living room, kitchen, and a king bedroom.
The third floor offers two additional bedrooms. One bedroom has a king bed, the other has two queen beds.
All staircases are equipped with handrails for safety.
Game Room + VR Fun
For rainy days and snowed in days, we got you covered. The dedicated game room features a pool table, ping pong table, and immersive VR gaming, making it a hit with kids, teens, and adults alike. Friendly competitions and late-night laughs are guaranteed.
Prime Northern Michigan Location
Perfectly located near the best of the region — just minutes to Sleeping Bear Dunes, M-22, Frankfort, Beulah, Crystal Mountain, and Traverse City. Enjoy the peace of a private lakefront setting with easy access to hiking, skiing, golf, beaches, and charming small towns. We are only 8 miles from Ironman 70.3 Michigan, which is held in Frankfort.
Kitchen & Dining for Gathering
The fully equipped kitchen makes meals easy and social, with generous counter space and everything you need for casual breakfasts or big group dinners. Gather around the dining table, share stories, and enjoy the simple luxury of unhurried time together. We have a beverage bar which is well stocked with coffee and teas. We have a Ninja Slushi, for frozen drinks of both kids and adult variety. We also have a Kitchenette on the lower level for additional space for food storage and prep space.
Inviting Living Spaces
The main living area is warm and welcoming — ideal for movie nights, board games, or relaxing after a full day on the lake or skiing on Crystal Mountain. Comfortable seating, Smart TVs, and beautiful views create a space where everyone loves to linger.
Sleeping Arrangements
Villa Crystal offers five bedrooms, 7 beds and sleeps 12 comfortably, making it ideal for extended families or groups traveling together.

The third level features an additional king bedroom and a bedroom with two queen beds, offering privacy and comfort for larger groups.
Outdoor Living at Its Best
Enjoy Michigan’s seasons outdoors with a hot tub, fire pit, BBQ grill, dock (seasonal), and comfortable seating. We have 2 kayaks and 2 paddleboards for guest use, please use the provided lifejackets. Guests use watercrafts and the hot tub at their own risk. Whether you’re roasting marshmallows, grilling dinner, or sipping wine as the sun sets over the lake, Villa Crystal delivers classic Up North moments.
Crystal Lake
Crystal Lake is one of Michigan’s largest and clearest inland lakes. While it’s excellent for swimming and boating, it is a large, deep lake where conditions can change with wind. Please supervise children closely, use life jackets when appropriate, and note that inexperienced boaters should use extra caution and follow all local boating regulations.
Year Round Escape
Winter at Villa Crystal is a true Northern Michigan wonderland. Just a short 15 minute drive to Crystal Mountain, guests can enjoy downhill skiing, snowboarding, and winter events, or explore miles of nearby trails for snowmobiling and snowshoeing. After a day in the snow, unwind in the year-round hot tub and settle in for cozy evenings by the lake — winter here is just as magical as summer.
Wineries and Tasting Spots
Explore Northern Michigan’s wine country just a short drive from Villa Crystal. The famous Leelanau Peninsula Wine Trail, with more than 20 award-winning wineries, invites you to enjoy tastings, scenic vineyard views, and a variety of cold-climate wines — from crisp Rieslings to rich reds and sparkling selections. You’re also close to the Old Mission Peninsula Wine Trail and Traverse City’s growing wine and culinary scene, making for a perfect day trip for wine lovers.

We had a wonderful stay at this Crystal Lake home! The house was clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed. The kitchen was exceptionally well stocked, the beds were comfortable, and we really enjoyed cooking on the nice gas grill on the front porch several evenings.Sherrie was an excellent host—very responsive and genuinely cared about making sure we had a great experience. When the dock became covered with bird droppings, she promptly sent someone out to clean it, which we really appreciated.The location is fantastic, with a beautiful private beach area on Crystal Lake and convenient access to Sleeping Bear Dunes and the Platte River float. We’d definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing Northern Michigan getaway!

Wow! This house has it all! Plenty of space for our group of teens, their friends and us parents. Crystal Lake is gorgeous! Truly crystal clear water with plenty of water activities available. The house offers kayaks and paddleboards. We rented a boat for two days to take the kids tubing and have a sunset cruise around the lake! We loved the use of the fire pit and patio by the lake & enjoyed a quick dip in the hot tub to warm up! The house has all of the amenities you need - a well stocked kitchen (3 different types of coffee makers - drip, Nespresso and k-cup!!), towels galore, well stocked bathrooms, a laundry room, reading nook, a game area for ping pong, pool, video games and VR system!! We loved the proximity to the Sleeping Bear Sand Dunes and all of the quaint nearby towns. Sherie, our host, was quick to respond to any of my questions! We hope to go back again soon!!

This is a fabulous place to stay on Crystal Lake. Highly recommended!The house has bedrooms on all 3 floors, and has multiple spaces where you can relax or have some fun, including 4 separate decks, all with great views of the lake! It is a great setup for any arrangement of people. The lower floor game rooms are stocked with fun activities. We haven't seen a better entertainment setup than this in other rental properties. We used the lower floor outside hot tub at the end of each day to unwind and relax while taking in the lake view.The waterfront area is very nicely appointed with lots of seating spaces in both the sun and shade. The sandy beach is nice to walk on or build sand castles on. The water is crystal clear and slopes out very gently. We used the provided kayaks for some water fun. Do be aware the beach area is across the street from the house, but this in no way detracted from our experience. Traffic was infrequent and slow. Lots of friendly walkers and bikers out on this route. Our dog absolutely loved this place.The host was very helpful and reached out multiple times to see if we needed anything. They are very friendly and quick to respond if needed. We didn't need anything because they had already thought of everything! They provided a very generously stocked coffee bar and a lovely arrival basket full of treats. From this location, it is very easy to get to Beulah, Frankfort, and Point Betsie Lighthouse, just to name a few spots worth visiting.A
