Nice place to relax, read and get some sun while you’re lounging on the private beach-all by the Crystal Lake! Bring your own food, paper cups, plates and drink. There’s no need to get into your car although restaurants are nearby.

Crystal Lake Resort has its own small beach to allow great access to Crystal Lake right outside your room/cottage. It’s close to all of the businesses in Beulah and is only 10 minutes to Frankfort. The room was simple but clean and had everything you’d need from a hotel room.

Quick Trip

Simple up north fishing trip, so we were looking for a basic place to stay. The room fit the bill - bed, bathroom, fridge, microwave, Keurig. Small room, but clean and comfortable.

Rooms are simple and straight forward, clean and smell nice. Could use some updating for the price even being summer, was high. But it’s a room.

The owner was so kind and gracious to us. Let us check in early and we had to also check out early due to unforeseen circumstances and she was so nice about everything. She told me over the phone how nice and happy my fiance and I were checking in that we even got a free upgrade. She didn’t know that we were there to take our engagement photos in the sleeping bear dunes so it just made our weekend. Would totally stay again! (:

Quaint but cramped

This place was clean and well maintained. The room was functional and everything except the exhaust fan in the bathroom was was in good working order. On the other hand, it was definitely the one of the smallest rooms we have ever stayed in, especially for the money. The parking lot is barely adequate for manuvering and we got stuck on the ground floor with the door facing the highway only a few yards away. Fortunately there was very little traffic at night so it wasn't too noisy, but it would have been much better to have one of the rooms with the lake view instead. Overall the whole area was very calm but there is nowhere to get breakfast in the immediate vicinity besides McDonald's a few miles away. During the day there a handful of restaurants to choose from but every place except a couple of bars closed quite early. If you are looking for access to Crystal Lake specifically, this place is alright. If you are going to the sand dunes national lakeshore you would honestly be better off to book a place in Traverse City.
