Visited the area in winter — The room was inviting, very clean and tidy; beds comfortable, and spacious for the purpose of relaxing. Host was a great communicator, and it was an easy check-in and out. In addition, it was very close to the downtown; I felt we could have walked if we had chosen to make the adventure.

This is a quaint spot very close to the main downtown area of Frankenmuth. The house and street have a lot of history and the preservation and renovations are beautiful. I have a family of 5 (2 adults, 3 kids). We were able to stay in the house comfortably. It was a better option for us instead of the waterpark hotel. The beds are very comfortable, the living area was spacious for all of us to hang out in and talk or watch tv, the bathroom was excellent, and the kitchenette had everything you would need (similar to hotel amenities). We had a few questions upon arrival and the owner was very responsive, kind, and pleasant as we met him in person. The “apartment” is the second floor of their house, and if they lived there, we would’ve never known because we didn’t hear anything from downstairs. This would be a great option for a weekend stay to wander around Frankenmuth or for a family with day passes to the water park. We were very satisfied!
