Overview
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.

The house was very nice and equipped with everything we needed! It was close to the slopes! Had a shuttle service available but we could not find the pass for it! Would definitely stay here again!
We liked how close this was to the center of everything, unfortunately the garbage disposal was broken and we struggled to do dishes. We planned to cook a lot while we were there so not having a functioning sink was problematic
Took my two nieces and their family on a ski trip. Loved the room upstairs with the queen bed and queen bunk bed. All 5 great nieces ages 7 to 13 were able to share the room and play games on the floor. Also loved how close the house was to the ski slopes.
This is a good property. We couldn’t get the gas grill to work, which may or may not have been our fault.
This house was perfect! Very spacious rooms and great layout. Plenty of room inside and nice deck and firepit for outside hangouts. Kitchen was well stocked with utensils and cookware. Loved how close it was to Crystal Mountain.
Great location. Could’ve been cleaner and the wifi/tv service was very spotty. We didn’t really watch much tv but when we tried would buffer very often. We rent homes every year in the area and I wouldn’t say this is the worst but I probably wouldn’t rent this one again.
