Enjoy this private retreat seated in the woods of Thompsonville on your next family vacation or getaway with friends! The furnished deck and private balcony look out to the foliage and provide great places to enjoy a cup of coffee in the morning or a glass of wine in the evening. Enjoy nights out by the firepit roasting marshmallows under the stars for some classic s'mores. The wood-burning stove will keep everyone warm on colder days and the full kitchen is ready to make comforting homecooked meals for the whole group. Don't forget to stop by the hot tub in the Crystal Spa & Fitness Center at Crystal Mountain Resort! Plus, if you stay during the colder months, this home makes for a great home base for a ski trip to Crystal Mountain.

Sitting at the base of Crystal Mountain, guests will be able to experience resort activities nearby such as skiing, snowboarding, and hiking! The mountain offers runs for all experience levels during winter months, so the whole family can have fun on fresh powder. During warmer times of the year, take a leisurely walk and view the unique art exhibits in Michigan Legacy Art Park or play a round of golf on the resort's golf course. If you brought little ones along, spend warm days at the Park at Water's Edge, a waterpark featuring slides and fountains to cool off in. For a day trip head over to Lake Michigan for a day on the sand and a swim in clear waters just 18 miles away.

Fall color trip
Spacious and clean home. Plenty of room as there is a basement, main level and upstairs. Love the privacy, quiet, peaceful atmosphere. Kitchen was stocked very well. Plenty of blankets, pillows etc. The management group was very quick to respond to any questions and willing to help when needed. If you have anyone that is handicapped there are many stairs which would make it difficult, my husband has heart issues and struggled with steps. The tv is limited, we struggled with using - it would be nice to have directions. We ended up watching you tube the entire time which was fine except it would lag sometimes. Other than that it was a great experience - beautiful scenery!

Great leaf peeper trip
The area and property are wonderful. My only complaint is the lack of communication with the local rep regarding delivery of a refrigerator during our stay which would have required us to use one of our few days here to wait for the delivery, remove and replace our food from the frig, and resanitize the main kitchen and dining area. After 4 phone calls, the delivery was delayed, the current frig worked fine and we had a great stay.
