It worked for our stay but was expecting it to be a little nicer. The flooring has trip and height changes that our group slipped down more than once.

Good house, good location

Good house in a good location to Frankfort. We were staying for the 2023 Ironman and couldn't have been happier with the location. Short drive to the very nice beach. Would definitely stay there again.

Thankful for a cancellation!

We had a nice stay in Frankfort - the house is an easy walk to downtown and to the beach. Plenty of room in the house for a family of 6-8. Smoke from the Canadian wildfires made mediocre sunsets and water views but we had fun, riding bikes, playing games and sampling several restaurants and of course all 4 ice cream shops in town!

Spacious house - great location

Excellent location. The house was bigger than it looked in the photos. Only down side was the master suite on the second floor didn't have a door. Also the front door was missing a screen (or window) which made it a little tricky to keep out the flies when we went in and out.

Simple, clean and great location

My family of 4 including 2 teens and our friendly pup stayed for a few days and this home was just what we were looking for. Nothing fancy, but clean, great location and owners were very friendly. Pretty easy walk to the beach and restaurants, shopping etc. The kitchen had everything we needed to make a couple meals and breakfast. Beds were comfortable and we slept well. Upstairs was hot when we arrived, but after a couple hours of running the window air conditioner up there, it made it comfortable. Would stay again!

Frankfort home

The property was clean and everything that you need was there. There was a nice grill to do some grilling out. The kitchen was fully supplied with utensils and dishes. There were towels and linens. The owner contacted us up upon arrival to let us know that the previous tenants caused Some small damage to a wood strip for the flooring that separated two rooms They didn’t have time to fix before our arrival. It’s close to all amenities in Frankfurt and Centrally located so you can visit the entire area. Will definitely consider for an next trip up north.

Up north getaway

Nice property, good location. House in some renovation we were not aware of…spackle, patching on ceilings, no paint therefore many decor items removed? cupboard floorboards missing in kitchen. The floors are very uneven; Watch your step. None of this affected our enjoyment of the beautiful area.
