Adorable lake cottage
Stayed at this amazing updated lakefront cottage with my sister and niece for the Frankfort 70.3 Ironman race. Location could not be better. Cottage is updated and pictures are accurate. Host was VERY accommodating and great, very fast communication through the whole process. Comfortable beds. Kitchen had all the necessities to make this place your home. 10 stars all the way around. Only wish I could have stayed longer. Will definitely stay again if I make it back up to the area. Thank you for such a great experience!

Great location
Comfortable cottage and great location for visiting the Frankfort, MI area. Very quiet and relaxing. Bedrooms were small and difficult to navigate (walk around) due to the limited clearances between the beds and walls. But overall worked well for our short stay.

Hidden Gem
We had a great time! The lake was nice and quiet and you are able to see the bottom. The adirondack chairs on the dock were the perfect place to watch a sunset. The boat, kayaks and paddle boards were also so convenient. We're already set to rebook for next year!!

Quaint, quiet cottage
Cottage was very clean. It is a small cottage which worked for our family (2 adults, 2 teens) but I probably would have enjoyed a larger space if there had been more people in our group (the cottage will sleep 6). Access to paddleboards, row boats, kayaks. Close to downtown Frankfort (about a 10-minute drive) and Lake Michigan. Definitely recommend for a group looking for a quiet, private get-away.

Nice and Quiet and Excellent
We stayed in one of the cottages (only four or five there), on the water, it was great. close to lots of hiking all over like Sleeping Bear etc., plus they had Kayaks we used, owners were nice and available if we needed anything. the lake is sparsely populated which was great too, not a lot of boats making noise, etc. Highly recommended!

The Lakeview Cottage
It was wonderful! The cottage was perfect for us, we loved the wonderful dock, the waterfront setting, the lovely mix of privacy and connection with others staying in some of the nearby cottages. The biking was great, it was a wonderful trip for us and we hope to do a repeat again, with a stay with the Turners! Thank you Pete and Bliss, you guys are great hosts! Colleen & Bill Whiteford

Great lakeside cottage
Cottage 3 was a great little cottage for our family of 3. It is renovated very nicely and big picture window looks out to the lake. Kayaks, SUPs, cornhole, the pier, and a fire ring kept us occupied when we weren’t exploring the nearby area. Bedrooms are a little tight but we were only in them to sleep so we didn’t mind at all. Would highly recommend!
