Inviting home w/ free cable and full kitchen - right on the lake

Grandma's Sandbox

Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'

This home was made for a couple (or solo traveler!) looking for some lake fun away from it all. The tile details and wood paneling evoke a simpler time and a vintage lakeside vibe. Guests can also enjoy the use of a 14” aluminum rowboat with included life jackets of various sizes. No one does the lake closer than this spunky home.

What's nearby:
The couldn't-be-closer setting on Crystal Lake is just the beginning. Point Betsie Lighthouse (just under six miles away) is the perfect gateway to Lake Michigan. This home is also within nine miles of Long Lake, Rush Lake, Platte Lake, and Little Platte Lake. Cherry Bowl Drive-In Theatre provides fun viewing during the summer season just over eight miles away. Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore offers hiking and lovely views just over 22 miles away.

Things to know:
Free cable
Full kitchen

Crystal Lake
It was almost as described. There is a strang layout, but it’s workable. We spent most of our time on the sand or in the lake. It was beautiful.

Peaceful location next to lake.
Patio door screen didn't close properly and lower part of refrigerator didn't stay cold enough. Everything else was good!

Enjoyed our stay at Grandma's Sandbox. The location was perfect as it is between Frankfort and the National Park. No A/C would have been just fine but for the lack of window screens to keep bugs outside. The house has more storage space and kitchen equipment than one would think for a tiny house. I have often booked homes through VRBO and this one was lacking in kitchen resources such as spices, foil, etc. So bring your own! The lake truly is crystal clear!

This vintage cottage definitely makes you feel like you’re at Grandma’s, but it’s the perfect size for a couple! The lake is gorgeous and you have your own private little beach area. Couldn’t have asked for a better spot for a mini vacation in Northern Mi!

Perfect location.
Too bad the management company of this place is worthless. It’s really too bad. Had to wait 2 hours to get in because no one could figure out the access code. We got in late and that was incredibly inconvenient. Besides that the property and accommodations were perfect! What a lovely place. I definitely would come back. It’s just lovely. Right on top of the water in a quaint little vintage cabin.
