Location: Frankfort, Northwest, Michigan, USA

Accommodations:  House, 3 Bedrooms + Convertible bed(s), 1.5 Baths (Sleeps 6)

The perfect place to stay to enjoy all that Frankfort and Northern Michigan have to offer. Situated on the highly desirable and tranquil Leelanau Avenue, guests will enjoy a short stroll to the gorgeous coastline and dunes of Lake Michigan and downtown historic Frankfort - one of the few remaining traditional northern Michigan small coastal towns. Once you park your car, you will not need to get in again until you leave.

This 3 bedroom, 1 1/2 bath cottage has been completely renovated and re-furnished. We have preserved the tradition of a Northern Michigan cottage, but have incorporated all of the modern conveniences of high definition TV and DVD, WiFi wireless internet, completely new kitchen, including new appliances (fridge w/ice maker, mircowave, dishwasher, stove), new cabinets with granite, new hardwood floors, all new furniture, new baths, washer and dryer, new back deck with dining area, and a wonderful outdoor shower.

The bedrooms and living spaces have been beautifully decorated and will surround your family in warmth and comfort. Unlike other rentals, this home is also our summer home, and you will immediately recognize the difference in the quality, decor, charm and comfort it offers. We look forward to our summer home being part of what we hope is a memorable and wonderful summer vacation in Northern Michigan for you and your family.

  • Our family had a wonderful week in this charming cottage! The location in downtown Franfort was an easy walk to the beach and to shopping. We made use of the available bikes and beach push cart to get where we needed to go. Five of us stayed comfortably in this beautifully decorated home. My family really enjoyed the outdoor shower with HOT water. We grilled our dinners on the back patio and got to meet the neighbors! We hope to visit again soon.

  • This couldn't have been a more perfect location for our "Girls' Time Out"! The cottage is immaculate, beautifully decorated and supplied with everything we needed, including extra special little touches that made it even more welcoming. It is situated perfectly for those who want to enjoy the lake and the peacefulness of the surroundings, and is equally as perfect for those who want to explore Sleeping Bear Dunes and the gorgeous area of Michigan in which the cottage is located. The owners are delightful to deal with, and my friends and I enthusiastically recommend this rental.

  • We are still thinking about what a great time we had this summer in Frankfort! A week was too short. This house was fantastic! Wonderfully decorated and super location! The owners were a pleasure to deal with. EVERYTHING you need is there. The attention to detail is really perfect, right down to all the hooks to hang your towels...the thoughtfulness in the renovation really shows. It was so nice to just be so comfortable and perfectly relaxed. We can't wait to stay here again next summer!!

  • Easily the best vacation rental property we have ever rented - anywhere. It was expertly renovated, clean, attractive, comfortable, easy to live in, beautifully furnished and thoughtfully equipped. On this latter point, we especially appreciated the bikes, beach equipment, wireless internet connection, Weber grill, dishware, cookware and stemware. On the design side all terrific but we really liked the kitchen. It a was a delightful place to prepare and enjoy meals.

  • The owners of this beautifully appointed, ideally located cottage have gone to great efforts to provide everything you need for a week away in lovely Frankfort. Just bring your bathing suit! And don't miss the outdoor shower in the sun.
