About this property

Modern A-Frame Near Frankenmuth & Bay City

  • Experience a one-of-a-kind peaceful A-Frame retreat in the Great Lakes Bay area. Perfect for couples or small groups seeking a quiet, comfortable stay. Tucked into a quiet neighborhood, yet just minutes from Bay City’s charming downtown—stroll local shops, cozy cafés, waterfront views, and restaurants—with Frankenmuth just a short drive away. Slow mornings, fresh coffee, and a space designed to unwind.

    This property features two A-frame cabins connected by garages (duplex-style), each with private entrances and no shared living space.

    It's the first and only twin double Aframe of its kind in Michigan. The property was built in 1971, remodeled with modern touches yet keeping its charm and character. You haven't seen anything like this twin double aframe before!

    - 3 bedrooms, 1 bathroom
    - Open-concept living with high ceilings, exposed beams, and large windows
    - Central AC & heat
    - Fast WiFi + 55” 4K Smart TV
    - Electric fireplace

Failure to follow the quiet hour requirements will result in a minimum $250 fine and a phone call to local law enforcement.

    Please keep an eye on your younger children. Lots of share edges along with steep, floating stairs. We are not liable for any accidents during your stay. Please do not book if you feel the space is not suitable for children.

    PETS:
    Due to family allergies, we do not allow pets in the home. If you are traveling with a service animal, we will do our very best to accommodate you, but we would encourage you to look for other pet friendly accommodations.

    - No smoking of any kind (cigarettes, vapors, marijuana, etc) both inside and outside the house.

    Your cleaning fee covers a normal amount of clean up in addition to washing and folding linen and folding your washed towels. Any additional cleaning (i.e. excess trash, dirt and sand, stains, etc) will result in an additional cleaning charge.

    We do not expect our guests to clean during their stay, but we do expect guests to respect our home. We would appreciate it if you leave the house in the same or better condition as you found it :)
