The house and lake access were what we expected, except that the what-would-have-been-ideal table on the expansive, deck above the lake had been broken (the glass top) by the guests before us. This wasn’t the owner’s fault, and the owner notified us of this as we were driving in, but this was very unfortunate. Other eating spaces in the house were far less desirable. We did eat on our laps in chairs on the deck and that was okay. I’m sure the table will be replaced, but do check this. Crystal Lake was beautiful. Very clear and clean. The kayaks at the house provided a lot of fun, as did the various floaties that were there. The master bedroom and bath were very pleasant, with views of the lake. Sitting areas facing the lake in the house were very comfortable and pleasant. Ceiling lights in the master bedroom were all dead (there was one bedside table lamp that worked). The house is old, but has its charm. Flowers around the house were lovely, as were the wild flowers along the road that surrounds the lake. Two cautions: You must be capable of walking up a long flight of stone steps from the house to your car (and bring a flashlight in the dark), and if you don’t know what Road America is (and we didn’t), look it up. You will hear the racing cars from 8 to 5 throughout the summer. You get used to the noise, but it’s delightful when the racing ends and the quiet begins.
