The little apartment was clean, functional, perfect for the stay with my children and I. It had everything needed to eat cook and rest. A huge plus was the Disney plus for some downtime for my little children, and the proximity to the beach and restaurants/shops of Frankfort was super convenient. A perfect stay overall and at a totally reasonable price.

Worked perfectly

My husband and I love this area of Michigan and this place worked well as our home base as we explored and relaxed. We ate every meal on the balcony. It was close to town, Lake Betsie and The BIG Lake- our favorite!

Our stay

We have stayed here for over 20 years and love the size and location. It's always clean. The blinds/curtains need to be fixed or replaced. We also heard some critters in the attic during our stay. There is no light on the front of the house to see the address. We love staying here and we'll see you next year! Thanks! 🙂
