Fun! Expect a Rustic Lake House

Excellent location tucked away in the woods between Crystal Lake and Lake Michigan. It is on the CSA grounds with several other similar lake vacation houses, but the woods are dense enough for a sense of privacy. The house is pretty rustic and dim, so expect that. Also kinda felt like there was sand everywhere, but I suppose that's on par for the area (and we might've contributed to it during our stay). Nice updated kitchen though. We had lots of fun in Frankfort!

So fun & fabulous!

This was the sweetest cabin in the woods. The lake is in walking distance down the hill from the cabin. The kitchen is fully remodeled & has everything you need. If you plan on grilling, you'll need tongs/spatula! There are fans to keep the air moving (if needed). We never turned the TV on, but there is one if you want it. The bed was very comfortable. Towels, sheets & blankets are all included. Plus, a washer & dryer! The kids absolutely loved the bunk house (with 3 twin beds). It was so great for them. If you're wondering if you should book this cabin, do it!! You will not regret it! Have a fun time♡

Great little spot on Congregational Summer Assembly (ASC) grouns

We had a wonderful time. Crystal Lake is beautiful and so clean! It would have been nice to know we were booking on the CSA grounds and to have a little more information about the place.. IE - where to park extra cars, where is beach in relative to cabin.
