4 day stay

What a perfect place. Plenty of room for two couples and minutes away from downtown Frankfort and a quick 10 minute drive to Lake Michigan lookout and pathway to the beach area and lighthouse. Everything was on one floor with no steps to climb. One very spacious bathroom with walk in shower, Perfect!

Felt like home

Very clean. It was better stocked than any I have stayed in. Strong WIFI and streaming TV. The beds were comfy. Outdoors was beautiful with deer, wild turkeys, colorful birds. The owners were wonderful! They left a plant and provided things for a breakfast and snacks so we didn't have to grocery shop as soon as we got there. They provided extra support when I had a medical mishap but respected our privacy. The town of Frankfort is small and friendly with sandy beaches and some beautiful old homes to admire. Try the steak bites at the Cabage Shed and the olive burger at the local A&W.
