“Birch Crest gives you the natural beauty mother nature offers. The owners and operators are friendly and helpful. They make everyone feel safe and comfortable. The property is extremely well cared for, and the bathrooms are exceptionally clean. The lake is the cleanest I have ever swam in because it's spring fed. It's absolutely my favorite place to go to recharge and feel grounded.”

“This place is a gem! Owners are so nice. I never had been in the water before. They gave me lessons for kayaking as well for no charges. Their cottages are so beautiful and are equipped with all the essentials. It has a great swimming dock. You can sit on it and enjoy the sunset, which is most beautiful. I had cook for them and they loved my food. Never seen a such beautiful place.”
