Crystal Lake Lakefront Retreat | Private Beach + Balcony Views

Agua Bella on Crystal Lake | Private Beach, Dock + Sunset Views
Welcome to Agua Bella, your classic Crystal Lake escape in beautiful Beulah, Michigan. Set right on the north shore of Crystal Lake, this cozy lakefront home is all about easy summer living, unforgettable sunsets, and the kind of up-north experience that keeps people coming back year after year.
Walk right out the side door and you’re at the lake — no road to cross, no long walk, just direct access to a private beach area, covered outdoor seating, and your own dock on one of the most beautiful lakes in northern Michigan.
Whether you’re here for swimming, boating, kayaking, paddleboarding, fall color tours, or simply relaxing by the water with family and friends, Agua Bella is the perfect home base.
The Home
Agua Bella offers 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms and sleeps 6 guests comfortably.
Sleeping arrangements:
Primary bedroom: 1 queen bed
Bedroom 2: 2 twin beds
Bedroom 3: 2 twin beds
There is also a pull-out couch available if needed, though it is best used for extra flexibility rather than as a primary sleeping space.
Inside, the home is comfortable, welcoming, and designed for a laid-back lake stay. You’ll find:
Multiple lake views from inside the home
A cozy living space with fireplace
A well-stocked kitchen
Dining space for meals together
Wi-Fi
Mini split air conditioning
Washer and dryer
This is the kind of home where mornings start with coffee overlooking the water, afternoons are spent at the beach or out on the lake, and evenings wind down around the fire or on the dock watching the sunset.
Lakefront Living
The setting is what makes Agua Bella so special.
The shoreline is a mix of sand and small rocks, and the water stays shallow for a good distance, making it especially great for swimming and for families with kids. The private dock includes a spot at the end where guests can sit, relax, enjoy a cocktail, and take in the sunset views looking west across Crystal Lake.
Guests are welcome to enjoy:
Private beach area
Private dock
Kayaks
Paddleboard
Boat hoist (if compatible with your boat)
Mooring (use caution during windy or stormy weather)
Fire pit
Grill
Covered patio with outdoor dining/seating
Outdoor shower
One of the best things about this property is how many great outdoor hangout spaces it offers — whether you want to dine outside, sit in the shade, spend the day at the beach, or end the evening by the fire.
Location
Agua Bella is located on the north shore of Crystal Lake in Beulah, giving you a peaceful lakefront setting while still being close to everything people love about Benzie County.
You’ll be near:
Downtown Beulah
Local restaurants and shops
Hiking and biking trails
Golf
Boating and fishing
Scenic drives and fall colors
Day trips throughout northern Michigan
Crystal Lake is known for its incredibly clear water, beautiful shoreline, and unforgettable views — and once you stay here, you’ll understand why so many people fall in love with it.
