About the host

Hosted by Celia Homsher

I started coming to Crystal Lake with my family when I was 5 years old. My husband has been coming for the past 40 years. It has become a part of our children's lives too...and their grandparents, all their cousins, aunts, and uncles too. So many great qualities of life here (accompanying so many great memories) that we decided it would be a great place to buy a cottage and to share it with others!
