Wake to Crystal Lake Serenity
Start your day with glass-calm water and soft morning light shimmering across Crystal Lake â the kind of peaceful start that only Northern Michigan can offer. The Nest combines luxurious comfort, thoughtful design, and unbeatable lake access for families, couples, and friends seeking an unforgettable Up North escape.
đïž 100 Feet of Waterfront Bliss
Set on 100 feet of private Crystal Lake frontage, spend summer afternoons paddling across the lake on one of the provided kayaks or SUPs, or unwind by the fire pit as the sky turns pink over the water. In winter, soak in the hot tub beneath a canopy of stars after a day of skiing at Crystal Mountain.
đ Perfect Central Location
Centrally located to all that Northern Michigan has to offer â just minutes to Sleeping Bear Dunes, M-22, Point Betsie Lighthouse, Frankfort, Beulah, Traverse City, Crystal Mountain, and more.

The newly renovated chefâs kitchen was built for connection â featuring a large island, 36-inch stove, coffee/tea station, and panoramic lake views. A private chef is available year-round for gourmet dinners right at home. Share meals at the spacious dining table for 8, or sip coffee from the window seat as the morning sun reflects on the lake.
đ„ Cozy Living Spaces
The inviting living area encourages slow mornings and long conversations. Curl up by the electric fireplace, stream your favorite shows on the Smart TV, or enjoy a game night as waves lap the shore. Every space is designed to make you feel right at home â modern, welcoming, and filled with light.
