The Farmhouse at Rustic Ridge

Modern Escape - Near Crystal Mountain & Lake Michigan!

Welcome to your perfect getaway! This charming modern farmhouse is designed for large groups, offering plenty of space and comfort for everyone. With 3 bedrooms, a lofted upstairs with built-in beds, and 2.5 bathrooms, it comfortably sleeps up to 16 people. The home is fully equipped with a full kitchen, washer and dryer, and high-speed WiFi for a seamless stay.

Relax and unwind in the spacious living areas, or enjoy endless entertainment with a pool table, classic video arcade, golden tee video arcade, board games, and a PlayStation 4. In the evenings, gather around the fire pit (wood included), have a drink at the outdoor bar while grilling on the propane grill or dial in your short game on our practice putting green.

For extra convenience, the property features four (4) Smart TVs — three indoors and one in the outdoor bar area — so you can enjoy your favorite shows or movies no matter where you're relaxing.

Located just 5 miles from Crystal Mountain Ski & Golf Resort, this retreat offers easy access to year-round activities, including skiing, golfing, and more. Explore the nearby Iron Fish Distillery and St. Ambrose Cellars, or tee off at one of the ten golf courses within 10 miles, including the renowned Arcadia Bluffs. For some added fun and relaxation, visit Little River Casino & Resort, just 20 miles away, or take in the stunning views of Sleeping Bear Dunes or the small-town charm of Glen Arbor, both just 30 miles away. Downtown Traverse City, along with the Cherry Capital Airport, is only 40 miles away, offering a variety of local dining, shopping, and entertainment options.

Nature lovers and water enthusiasts will appreciate the close proximity to Bear Lake and Crystal Lake, both perfect for swimming, kayaking, and fishing. You can also explore the shores of Lake Michigan or visit Downtown Frankfort, a charming lakeside town with quaint shops, restaurants, and breathtaking water views. For anglers, the Platte River and Betsie River offer some of the best fishing in the area, particularly during the fall and spring when the rivers are filled with salmon and steelhead. Whether you're after a trophy fish or simply enjoying the serenity of these beautiful rivers, you'll find the perfect fishing experience just minutes away.



Whether you're here to relax, explore, or simply have fun, this farmhouse retreat offers the perfect setting for making memories with family and friends!
