GUEST INTERACTION:
We have a local property manager that lives in the area and is available to address any questions or issues.
NEIGHBORHOOD:
The house is set in the middle of Frankfort's very cute and charming downtown residential area. It's only a couple blocks from downtown Frankfort and a very easy walk to shops, restaurants, and cafes. Frankfort Beach and Lake Michigan is only 0.6 miles from the house, which works out to about a nice 10 to 15 minute walk from the house.
Outside of Frankfort, Crystal Lake is just 10 minutes away, the start of Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore is only a 20-minute drive from the house, and downtown Traverse City with it's shops, restaurants, entertainment, and nightlife is only a 1-hour drive away!
THE SPACE:
All 3 bedrooms and both full bathrooms are located on the main floor! In the partially-finished basement, there is a entertainment / game / kids room as well as a washer and dryer that is available for guests to use.
Outside, the house has a nice large deck with a new gas grill and nice new bonfire ring for great family bonfires with s'mores!

It is recommended that guests have their own vehicle, but it's very possible to get by without a vehicle if you wish to stay right in Frankfort the entire time.

This was one of the best places we have ever rented, and the 4 of us have done this for 30 years. Very clean, fully stocked, comfortable beds and walking distance to everything local. We would definitely stay again.

This was one of the best places we have ever rented, and the 4 of us have done this for 30 years. Very clean, fully stocked, comfortable beds and walking distance to everything local. We would definitely stay again.
We had a wonderful relaxing stay at Gwen’s place in August. The home was clean and comfortable, had plenty of space, the yard was great and we enjoyed the fire pit many days and evenings. The neighborhood was quiet and within walking distance to many downtown shops and restaurants. A bit longer of a walk led to the beach. We found everything we needed in the kitchen, and there was enough space for all 6 of us to sit together for a meal. We will definitely consider staying again when in the area!
My wife and I stayed for a week with two of our kids, 15 and 6. Very comfortable accommodations, climate control was perfect, the back yard was very nice, and the kitchen was well stocked. The linens were very clean, the only thing lacking from the entire stay was a dish towel. I only mention that to highlight how little there was to criticize.
It’s a short walk to everywhere you’d want to go, we hardly used the car for our entire trip. I would highly recommend.
Good time as usual. Pleasant stay. A bit noisier than we would have liked due to the main road and proximity of the neighboring house on the master bedroom side of the house. Price is reasonable. Don’t care for the security deposit method/refund timing. But would recommend based on convenience.

Great stay
We enjoyed our stay! Nice clean house. Close to town. Lots of parking available. Enjoyed the fire pit in backyard. Would stay again!
PERFECT location. In walking distance of the beach, cute town, and every magic moment that NW Michigan has to offer. Cute little fire pit out back to gather and enjoy family time. We will definitely stay here again. Highly recommend.
This house has recently been renovated and is in great condition. Very clean!! Beds are super comfortable. Kitchen well equipped. Walking distance to the cute downtown with shops and tasty restaurants. Another short walk and you're at the beach. Would definitely stay here again!!

Perfect for two generation getaway. Split floor plan allows you to have your own private space. Only negative is traffic noise. Located on main thoroughfare into town
This house is clean and comfortable. Location is in a great spot, close to the main drag in Frankfort. Would definitely chose to stay here again.

Beach vacation in Michigan!
Loved the house and the remodeling is beautiful. We appreciated the proximity to the downtown area and the beach. Having beach towels available was very nice! Only improvement would be having toiletries like shampoo available. We also noticed a lot of ants on the floor everywhere but especially the living room, and weren’t able to lock the back door.

Sand and Snow experience
Unit worked fine for us. Clean and nicely updated but a dishwasher would be a nice addition.
The property was great for our family vacation. The location was within walking distance to downtown shopping, the beach, and the grocery store. Our teens appreciated the rec room in the basement. The property was very clean.
Property is walking distance to Downtown Frankfort and Lake Michigan. Will be more convenient when construction of Forest Ave is completed. Clean, A/C, Internet, multiple TV's. Definitely rent here again.
The communication process was good from the beginning. Everything was prepared for us on arrival. The check-in process was smooth as well. The house is well equipped for a long- or short-term stay. Grill and a fire pit are a good way to relax in the evening. Recommended!
