The Bright and Breezy - Lakefront with Spa!

The Bright and Breezy is a gorgeous newly-remodeled home right on the south shore of Crystal Lake! Outside it features a NEW PRIVATE HOT TUB, huge dock, outdoor shower, hammock, bonfire ring, water toys (including a lilypad and a kayak), backyard deck, and new propane grill! Inside the home is beautifully decorated in bright and beachy tones. Plus high-speed Wi-Fi along with live streaming tv's! The property makes for a fantastic base year-round to explore all of northwest Michigan!

The house is along the luxurious south shore of Crystal Lake, which boasts many luxurious homes of over $1M in value. The neighborhood is primarily made up of vacation homes of professional families.

This is also a great destination for winter skiing! The home is warm and cozy in the winter with an indoor fireplace and it's only a 24-minute drive from Crystal Mountain! It includes high-speed Wi-Fi, multiple televisions with live streaming, and board games as well! Also provides a beautiful wintertime of Crystal Lake and ice fishing right across the street!

Outside of the immediate neighborhood, the home is just a few miles from downtown Frankfort, which has a charming collection of shops, restaurants, cafes, and a microbrewery (Stormcloud). Frankfort also has a fantastic public beach on Lake Michigan and a popular historic lighthouse. The Bright and Breezy is also less than a 30-minute drive from both the start of Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore (to the north) as well as Crystal Mountain Ski Resort (to the southeast).

The house is also only about a 1-hour drive east to Traverse City. Traverse City is the business, arts, recreation, entertainment, dining, and shopping hub of all of Northern Michigan and it provides a vast variety of "bigger city" things to see and do.
