Unwind in luxury at this luxurious home, where everyone can relax in their own space. Cook with ease in the upscale kitchen, then serve in the dining room or the living room in front of the gas fireplace. And we mean it when we say there's room for everyone here - on the main floor, guests can relax in the first main bedroom, which includes a king bed and an en suite bathroom with a soaking tub and walk-in shower. The second bathroom on this floor features a walk-in shower. Upstairs, guests can select between one bedroom with two twin beds, a second bedroom with one queen bed, and the second main bedroom of the house (which includes a king bed and an en suite bathroom with a walk-in shower). Views of the Crystal Mountain Resort golf course can be enjoyed from this bedroom! The second bathroom on this floor features a shower/tub combination. Down on the basement floor, the final two bedrooms feature one queen bed and two sets of twin bunk beds. Guests of this floor can make use of a bathroom with a walk-in shower. Of course, after a long day on the greens (or the mountain), there's nothing left to do but gather around the firepit. You can always take advantage of the shared hot tub available and relax your sore muscles after spending the day exploring the mountain or shredding some powder at the slopes.

Guests have access to Crystal Mountain Resort amenities (less than a half-mile from the house), which must be purchased separately. At the resort, guests can enjoy skiing (cross-country and downhill), snowshoeing, 36 holes of golf, spa treatments, fine dining, and other activities. Beyond the resort, guests can take a delicious sip of local history at the Iron Fish Distillery three miles away.

Nice home but overall fell far short on basic amenities, etc.
Positives: Large foyer and mudroom with bench for removing shoes. Kitchen/dining/living room easily accommodated 10 adults. Outdoor area with picnic table and fire pit with plenty of seating. Quiet neighborhood. Negatives: We had to clean up several piles of dog poop near the fire pit area. No firewood, we had to drive around to find a place to purchase it. Screened porch furniture was stained and dirty. Lack of basic amenities: We were provided with 2 kitchen towels, 2 extra kitchen garbage bags, 5 dishwasher pods,1 roll of paper towel, no basic cleaning supplies. Contacted Vacasa about the lack of supplies for a party of 10 adults and was told we were ā€œfree to replenish these items independently, as neededā€. Basic essential toiletries were at a bare minimum. Thin cheap bathroom towels, cheap bedding and pillows, thick dust on ceiling fans. The bed in the main floor master bedroom sits very high. A 5ā€™4ā€ family member staying in that room needed to get a step stool from the garage in order to climb in and out of bed. The main floor community bathroom toilet was leaking into the downstairs mechanical room. I filed a report the first day but the bathroom toilet was not fixed during our stay. No instructions for how to lock the front door, no listing of emergency numbers, no listed location of first aid kit and fire extinguisher. We eventually found the fire extinguisher under the kitchen sink, the first aid kit was located in one of the many kitchen drawers.

Family Ski Trip
This is definitely one of the nicest places we have ever stayed at! It is our third year returning and we hope for many more to come. Constructive comments: - Not the most flexible with early check-ins. - Firewood was not readily available. - Despite the title of the listing, there is no hot tub at the home. They are referring to the resort hot tub for which you have to pay $20 per person to use and it is about a half a mile away. It would be amazing if they would actually put a hot tub at the home. Itā€™s really the only thing this place is missing.

Great location but customer service not so great
We had stayed at the property for a golf trip eight guys. Day one we noticed that the dishwasher did not work. We called Vacasa and they sent someone over right away. They told us that thereā€™s nothing they can do. We have to just persevere for the five days that we were there. We cooked two meals a day for eight people and had to do all the dishes all week long. The house is great. The location is great. They say thereā€™s a hot tub but there is no hot tub on the property. I assume theyā€™re talking about a shared hot tub somewhere at Crystal Mountain, which is located very close nearby. Also, the shower upstairs did not drain properly and there was water in it for five days. We did not report that since we got no satisfaction about the dishwasher. When we return home, we filed a claim with a Vacasa and Vrbo I spoke to Vacasa four times and Vrbo three times about the dishwasher claim. The Casa made an offer which we felt was not reasonable for a refund just today almost 2 1/2 weeks later after calling Vacasa again we were notified that the refund that we agreed upon was finally put through. Too much time has been taken on our behalf to remedy the situation through Vacasa even when I called them today, they told me that the determination had been made days and days ago, but Vacasa never notified me of their final attempt at a credit. Just make sure in the future if you rent through Vrbo, and itā€™s handled by a management company in Vrbo has no responsibility. Overall a nice place.

Awful experience
The house was not cleaned properly, was infested with fruit flies, had MOLDY food/trash in the downstairs bathroom, had no extra amenities like shower towels, blankets, or paper towels. The counters were not wiped down, dishwasher did not work. Beds were uncomfortable, cheap mattresses. The downstairs floor had some kind of polish on it that was so slippery it was unsafe to walk. In addition, when I called to get the fruit fly situation taken care of, they said a local maintenance person would come take care of it and call beforehand. That never happened. Their checkout/check in policy is completely ridiculous and unreasonable. So disappointed in this place and VRBO.

Beautiful Home in Thomsonville
Very nice home base for our visit to Northern Michigan. The home is nicely decorated, beds are relatively comfortable (mattress on the queen bed in the basement was a bit soft), the kitchen was fairly well equipped however the microwave was not working while we were there (we reported this). There were no hairdryers (the listing was not correct on this point). Overall we enjoyed our stay.

Loved this propertyā€¦ I hesitate to even say how wonderful this place is given I definitely want availability to rent again! The homeowner has thought of everything, and personally I think this is one of the best properties to rent at Crystal. Beautiful house, clean, incredible for an extended family stay. Walking distance to the slopes. House is even better than the pics. Loved our stay and will definitely stay again.

Annual family ski weekend
The house is spacious and beautiful. Plenty of rooms for our family to spread out and have our own space. The great room and kitchen were awesome for gathering. The house has great outdoor space and fire pit. It is right at the bottom of the sledding hill, jut out the back door which was perfect for the kids after skiing all day. Just a short walk to the chair lift. We have been coming to Crystal Mountain for years now for our annual family ski trips and this was one of our favorites.

It was our third stay at Buckaroo at Chrystal Mountain.
We were so pleased with the house, accommodations, and cleanliness of the house. We have a very comfortable stay both inside and outside the house. We appreciate how clean the house is and all that is provided for our use. Our nightly fires in the fire pit are always enjoyable! We did have an unsettling experience the second night when the fire alarm went off yelling ā€œFire! Fire!ā€ after we had gone to sleep only to get up to no fire (thank goodness) and a screaming fire alarm. We all scrambled around the house checking to see where the fire was and luckily nothing was found! The alarm finally stopped screaming Fire after a while but nobody slept well the rest of the night. We hope that never happens again and we wonder what caused it this time. Very upsetting! The rest of the stay was uneventful and just lovely!

Great Vacation Spot
Right in the Crystal Mountain resort area this rental had lots to offer. The small complaints I'd share was that there was only one hair dryer and with five women getting ready for a wedding that was a problem. Also, we cooked a few meals at home and two kitchen towels were not enough. Otherwise I'd highly recommend this rental property. It was even nicer in person than in the photos!

This property was very spacious and accommodating for our family. We had everything we needed in the kitchen to cook. Two things to note when considering booking we were short on towels in the main bathroom and the kitchen could have used a bit more cleaning. The range hood had a lot of dust and grease on it and the island cabinets looked as though they hadnā€™t been wiped down (crumbs and spilled food)
