Crystal Blue Oasis boasts a level lot with eighty-two feet (82’) of direct frontage on a 155-acre spring-fed lake with all-sports access to boat, swim, and fish for Bluegill, Black Crappie, Sunfish, Largemouth Bass, and Walleye. Its calm, shallow, and sandy shoreline makes it great for little ones to splash and play. The marl (clay) lakebed allows sunlight to reflect, creating the mesmerizing turquoise water reminiscent of the Caribbean, and its crystal-clear water lends itself to a tranquil kayak and paddleboarding experience. For a small added fee, there are two sit-on kayaks, two sit-in kayaks, two kids’ kayaks, and/or two stand-up paddleboards available onsite for the duration of your stay. Contact the host to arrange access and to sign the waiver of liability. For guests traveling with their watercraft, a no-cost boat launch is available for small boats and personal watercraft.

Need a break from the water? Enjoy an assortment of games and puzzles or relax while watching any of the Wi-Fi-connected Smart TVs found in the living room and each bedroom. Seasonally (September 15th – May 1st), bask in the warm flickering glow of the wood-burning fireplace.
Off-property, choose to hit the links at one of the area golf courses, enjoy a meal at their clubhouse, or take a 15-minute walk and visit the local chill and grill for its fast food-style menu and sweet treats for dessert. If breakfast sweets are your thing, Special Ed’s offers a roadside donut stand with fresh, hot apple fritters, cake donuts, and breakfast sandwiches.
