The Latch String is out, please come in…your pleasure has been our family business since 1935, when the first guest book was opened in the log cabin living room of our main lodge.

Old-fashioned summer cottage rentals are right here, alive and well, refined for today's tastes. All have decks or patios and a fireplace. A tennis court, basketball court, playground areas and 300 acres of wooded hills surround Chimney Corners. There are four cottages on Crystal Lake. The remaining units are across the road from the beach or on the bluff, with beautiful views.

1,000 feet of private sandy beach is available to all guests. There are both shallow and deep water rafts, paddleboards and rowboats, all for your pleasure. Swim in clear sparkling water. Bring your fishing, sail or ski boat and enjoy Crystal Lakes 9 mile stretch or rent one from a nearby marina.

Benzie County, Michigan offers great gift and antique shopping, a variety of restaurant choices and many golf courses, within a short drive from the resort. Visit Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore Park, canoe or kayak down the Platte River, bike the Betsie Valley Trail or enjoy marshmallow roasts and colorful sunsets at Point Betsie Lighthouse on Lake Michigan.
