About this property
The Violet Cottage
This rustic family cottage will take you back to a simpler time where life moves by at a slower pace. There are 2 bedrooms upstairs (1 full and 2 twins) and a third area with a queen bed downstairs. There is one bathroom with a shower over the old clawfoot tub, as well as a washer and dryer. There is a wood burning stove in the living room that will take off the chill in the shoulder season. This Cottage is a member of The Congregational Summer Assembly that comes with access to 800’ of members-only sandy beaches on Crystal Lake, as well as shared access to Lake Michigan beach. Registered renters are included for a $33 weekly fee during the mid-June to mid-August season. There are also four tennis courts (the two closest to the cottage require purchasing an additional $10 season access ticket). The main assembly building has a ping pong table and foosball table, a library, activities board, and is where they hold dances and other indoor activities for young kids. There is also a meeting house with church on Sunday across the field from the main assembly building. As a guest in a CSA cottage, you are welcome to use/attend as many or as few of the CSA activities you wish.
