Summary: My husband, myself along with my sister and brother-in-law stayed a week in September in the Villa. The property was gorgeous, weather was fabulous and Sue and Art were the perfect hosts.

Summary: This place is a little slice of heaven. The cabin was absolutely perfect- It was rustic, with plenty of space, comfortable beds, and everything you need to make delicious meals! The beach front is absolutely beautiful, the best spot on the lake, with a sandy beach, three piers, a dock to swim out to, and every kind of water toy you can imagine! My family had a blast canoeing, kayaking fishing, swimming, and enjoying a week of lake life! We will definitely be renting here in future years! Thanks to Sue and Art for being such awesome hosts, they were attentive, but not overbearing! I already miss the view, and the sunsets over the lake!

Summary: I spent a week at this property with my friends and family, and we thoroughly enjoyed our time. The cabins are quaint and rustic with nothing fancy but just the right amount of space. We spent most of our time at the lake, with the extremely friendly and accommodating owners of the property. The porch in the Brown Camp cabin, where we stayed, is perfect for meals and makes cool evenings and rainy days enjoyable. The property is adorable, with 3 docks and a floating raft, plenty of canoes and kayaks to use as we pleased, and floats and toys for the kids to use on the beach and in the water. There's a cute country store 5 min down the road if you need supplies. If you're looking for a comfortable, cabin vacation next to a quiet lake where you can kick back and relax and forget about the real world, this is your place. We definitely plan to return as often as we can.

Summary: We have been going to Crystal Acres for eight years now. We have found it to be a rare, quiet get away for our family. Even during a busy week of the summer Crystal Lake is quiet and peaceful. The lake is very clean, and the kids love the swimming. There is a baseball field and a small public playground within walking distance. The cabin is just right for our 5 person family. You cannot beat it when you get a week of good weather here.

Summary: My extended family--including sisters, moms, in-laws, cousins and more!--come to Crystal Acres every summer. It's a perfect location for relaxing on the beach, going out for quiet canoe rides, playing shuffle board, jaunting off to Weir Beach for go-carts and ice cream, taking hikes, and lots of rousing games of cards! The kids love to ride their bikes daily to the nearby Country Store. The kitchen facilities are small yet well-stocked with all the pots and pans you'll need. The beach front is perfect for kids of all ages--a gentle slope for beginner swimmers, and a raft in the deeper water. I'm coming back for an extra week this year with another family. (There are three cabins on the property, plus an extra bunk house, so it's possible to rent several at once, giving you both together time and alone time--a nice quality for a family vacation.)
