Michigan Vacation at Crystal Mountain Resort and Spa

Took a Michigan family vacation this summer to Crystal Mountain Resort and Spa in northern Michigan. It was probably one of the nicest Michigan vacation getaways we have had as a family for quite some time. Everyone had such a good time.

We take a lot of Michigan vacations especially in the summer because summers in Michigan are out of this world. For anyone who loves the white sandy beaches Michigan is tops in my opinion. For this reason we usually vacation along the Lake Michigan beaches.

We had heard a lot about Crystal Mountain Resort and Spa and had always related it to a sky resort more for those winter vacations in Michigan. Well let me tell you Crystal Mountain Resort is probably one of the best year long vacation spots to be in Michigan. And the price was nice especially for a family vacation.

There was so much to do that we were unable to do everything in a 3 day weekend getaway. We bought a vacation package so we would have an idea what our costs were going to be for the weekend. The package included lodging with a full kitchen in our lodge, use of the following activities during your stay: Crystal Clipper chairlift ride, Crystal Coaster alpine slide, Family Bonfires, Field Games, Disc Golf, tennis and tennis equipment rental, admission to Michigan Legacy Art Park, Park at Water’s Edge, The Peak - including the Fitness Center, Indoor Pool and Hot Tub, twilight bike rental, twilight Vertical Edge climbing wall, twilight golf on the Betsie Valley (cart not included) and Outdoor Movies.

The weather was great and there was plenty of water activity to keep us very happy. The staff at Crystal Mountain Resort and Spa was more than accommodating. They really wanted to make sure that we were happy with our stay and that we knew they were there to make our stay pleasant. The service definitely was 4 star.

We are now considering taking a winter Michigan family vacation getaway at Crystal Mountain. Crystal Mountain provides the best in northern Michigan skiing and northern Michigan snowboarding.

We are also stopping in at Crystal Mountain Resort and Spa for there 4th annual Peak To Peak Mountain Bike Race. We are not competing but our children are. The Peak to Peak Mountain Bike race is how we came across their summer vacation packages. We went to their site at crystalmountain.com to find directions and get lodging information on the mountain bike race. So glad we did.

So for your next Michigan vacation getaway why not take a Michigan family vacation to Crystal Mountain Resort and Spa and enjoy a great vacation any time of the year.
