About the host

Hosted by Jay Kulesza

Host profile image
I grew up spending my summers here since 1968 - my first dip in the waters of clear blue Crystal Lake was when I was 2 weeks old! Spending summers here was such a special part of my life growing up as was my mother and grandmother before her. We've been very fortunate to keep the property within the family for 5 generations and counting and one thing I find most rewarding is being able to share this special place with others.

Why they chose this property

Built in 1922 by my great grandparents, only recently has it been completely renovated bringing it up to 21st century standards but continues to hold the old world charm of a northern Michigan cottage. Plenty of room to spread out inside and out there is room to explore on land, in the water or climbing trees. The area abounds with adventure and is regularly featured as one of America's finest destinations, also known as "the other West Coast".

What makes this property unique

Centrally located midway between Frankfort and Beulah on the South shore of Crystal Lake and within a short drive to the southern tip of Sleeping Bear National Lakeshore the cottage is centrally located to many of the areas best eateries and local attractions. Come stay with us and you won't want to leave!
