About this property
Large Family Suite w/ private entrance one block from Lake Michigan
Located in the resort town of Frankfort, Michigan, Serendipity House offers summer lodging in five suites just a block from Lake Michigan. The Sandune Suite is our largest at 1,150 square feet, has one bedroom with a queen bed and another with two queen beds and a twin bed. The suite sits on the second floor at the rear of the inn and has two private entrances, living room with a sofa bed, full private bath and full kitchen.
Available to all guests is the big front porch looking across Main Street to Betsie Bay and a backyard outdoor seating area with fire pit, picnic table, Weber grill, and comfy furniture. The inn sits on Main Street just steps from the beach and the downtown with its collection of unique restaurants, Stormcloud brewery, retail shops and the Garden Theater.
The Betsie Valley Bike Trail begins its 26-mile journey just across the street in Frankfort Park, while biking and hiking trails are all within 10 minutes from Serendipity House. We are a half-hour drive from Sleeping Bear National Park, with vineyards, farms and distilleries sprinkled throughout the area.

Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Sarah McCallum
My family has a long history of innkeeping. My grandmother, Nancy Bannister, owned the Sunset Valley Resort Motel and 13 waterfront cottages on M-22 in Arcadia in the 1960's. Our family has been enjoying Benzie County for years and we'd love to share our experiences with you and help you create your own memories.
Why they chose this property
My father Tim Bannister purchased Serendipity House in 2007 and lovingly restored the c.1890 historical home. He often referred to the house as a "she" and after painting, fixing or planting flowers on the porch he could be heard to exclaim in a campy sailor's voice "she's looking good yar!"
What makes this property unique
Close to everything! One block from the sparkling waters and sandy beach of Lake Michigan and one block from downtown.
