Perfect home for a Frankfort vacation

Sandy’s cottage is spacious, comfortable, clean and perfectly located to enjoy the Frankfort beach and town, as well as the surrounding area. My family of 5 loved our three week stay!

Pure relaxation

We love Frankfort and staying at Sandy’s place added to our need for a relaxing getaway. The house is clean and comfortable. Plenty of spaces to read a book, watch tv, or nap. The beds are super comfortable - easy to sleep in every morning. Perfectly located and an easy walk to town and the lake- less than 10 minutes. Truly added to our vacation. Would definitely stay here again !

Weekend Away

We had a great time! We were in town for the half ironman and this was the perfect location. We were so close to downtown and we could actually see the bike course from the porch. Sandy was excellent and the house had everything we could have hoped for. If we do the ironman in the future we will definitely be back!

Bathroom Count Misleading

Information pertaining to the bathrooms is misleading. There is only 1 full bath and a half bath. Property description states 2 fulls and a half bath. This was a deciding factor when choosing the home so we were a bit disappointed. However, it was too late to find something new so we made it work with the number of adults. House was extremely clean and cozy. Great distance from town.

Bathroom count is inaccurate

The Vrbo listing clearly states 3 bathrooms. Then there is a 2 under the shower head (which makes you believe two baths with showers) and a 1 under the half bath. There is only ONE bath with a tub/shower and ONE half bath. We wanted two full baths. We made it work and we had an amazing vacation just think the way it is listed is deceiving

Perfect location!

The property is located in walking distance to downtown and Lake Michigan. It was the perfect location for our girls week with grandma, aunts, me and my daughters. Everyone had a great time, despite the rainy weather. The teens loved being able to walk to town on their own and go to the skate park and basketball courts a few blocks away. I would definitely recommend staying at this property. The house itself was very clean and charming.

About the host

Hosted by Sandy Tochterman

Host profile image
We are lifelong visitors to Frankfort. My mother grew up here, I grew up spending my summers here, and my parents retired here in 1985. My husband and I were thrilled when the opportunity arose for us to purchase our own home in town. Frankfort is our special place, filled with memories of family, love, laughter, and cherished views!

Why they chose this property

Frankfort is a charming town. Our location allows for casual walks into town for coffee, or walks to the bay with an ice cream cone. Kids can walk to the beach, or take their bikes. The large fenced in yard allows for outdoor games and plenty of room to enjoy a bbq or roast marshmallows at the fire pit.
