NEIGHBORHOOD:

The home is located on the fabulous west shore of Crystal Lake, which consists primarily of very high-end vacation homes, many of which are valued at over $1 million. The home is on legendary M-22 as it travels along Crystal Lake, so it makes for a great location for not only exploring Crystal Lake, but also taking M-22 north up into the Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore and exploring the fun and charming beach towns of the Leelanau Peninsula. The home is less than three miles from Rock's Landing, which is a lovely and very private high-end restaurant that is right on Crystal Lake and allows for dining right on the lake!

Outside of the immediate neighborhood, the home is just a few miles from downtown Frankfort (to the south), which has a charming collection of shops, restaurants, cafes, and a microbrewery (Stormcloud). Frankfort also has a fantastic public beach on Lake Michigan and a popular historic lighthouse.

Lwardcove is also just 3.7 miles from Old Indian Trail and the start of Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore (to the north). Thus, it makes for a great location for hiking, cross-country skiing, kayaking, tubing, and exploring all of Sleeping Bear Dunes!

From the house, Traverse City is also only about a 1-hour drive to the east. Traverse City is the business, arts, recreation, entertainment, dining, and shopping hub of all of Northern Michigan and it provides a vast variety of "bigger city" things to see and do.
