We are sweet on Suite Baby James
House was quite comfortable for three people. Floor plan works well with spacious entry including hooks and storage, large closets in the bedrooms, and spacious, well furnished kitchen. The house is nicely furnished and decorated with a keen eye for detail. Good location in town on quiet residential street.

Perfect Summer Escape!
Our family enjoyed staying at Suite Baby James! The house was spotless and perfect for our family of four. We loved the quick walk to the beach and downtown Frankfort, the proximity to the park for basketball and pickle ball and listening to all the records/ playing games every night. My teen boys and husband didn’t even miss a tv! Lauren was available at a moments notice to help if we needed anything too. Definitely would stay again!

About the host

Hosted by Lauren

Host profile image
We are Josh and Lauren, transplants from other places that fell in love with Benzie County, and now we get to call it home! Josh is a builder and leads the way on our rental renovations, with an eye for functional design

Why they chose this property

We love this town, Frankfort is a great base camp for all of the outdoor adventures that we enjoy so much! The community we have in Frankfort is small yet full of friends, and this house made it's way to us through those connections. Although James needed a lot of work we immediately fell in love with the idea of what it could become. The final result is beyond our expectation.

What makes this property unique

Two master suites!! James needed a full makeover when we found him, and we used that to our advantage. This brought the opportunity for us to create an ideal situation for travelers by incorporating two master suites. These two beautiful bathrooms add so much to the space in James.
