Incredible spot in a perfect up North town. Home is cozy and character filled and you’ll never want to leave the porch until sunset. We’ll return!

Great stay. Cool old house. Weird and eclectic decor which was cool. There’s a mummy / sarcophagus in the basement. Would be even more cool if there were 2 mummies. Great location. Well stocked house with all amenities you need. Kids thought the attic loft bedroom was awesome. We had a great time. Will plan to come back.

6/10 Okay

Great Location

The view doesn't get much better then this, sand right off the steps of the deck. The house has a old cottage charm however the cleanliness on the other hand was less desirable. For the price that was paid you would expect better. Laundry still in washer & dryer, tables and countertops sticky. My wife spent some time cleaning and finishing laundry. Trash was piled up in exterior containers with chicken bones on top of it. Its advertised as AC however its only a window unit in the upper loft, so you better hope theres a breeze unlike the humidity and non breeze when we occupied the home. Miscellaneous items on deck and yard as we arrived, the grill was damaged and needs replaced. Well equipped with everything you would need Overall we had a good time and the commication with management was very good. If anything the cleaners gave the management a black eye. Grateful to have experienced it none the less.

We had a wonderful week here and the location is hard to beat. The views are beautiful, the beach is just steps away, and it’s an easy walk into Frankfort. We also enjoyed the family photos throughout the house and even found ourselves trying to piece together the family tree!That said, the house could use some maintenance and better stocking, especially for larger groups. While it’s advertised to accommodate a large number of guests, we found there weren’t enough bath towels, only one beach towel, limited toilet paper, too few cereal bowls and not enough silverware for our group of 12.The basement also had a strong musty smell, an overfull dehumidifier, and a bedroom that didn’t feel suitable for sleeping because of the dampness. There were a few maintenance issues as well, including a closet door off its hinges in the basement and a first-floor tub/shower that wouldn’t drain because the stopper was stuck closed.Sleeping arrangements were tighter than expected. The attic futon was very thin and uncomfortable and didn’t function well as a regular bed, so we ended up rearranging where everyone slept.Overall, we made wonderful memories here and really enjoyed our stay thanks to the fantastic location. With a few repairs, some updated furnishings, and better stocking for the number of guests advertised, this property could be an exceptional rental.
