Family trip

Enjoyed our stay at The Big House. We had plenty of room for us. Beds were very comfortable. Views of crystal lake, Lake Michigan and Sleeping Bear dunes was outstanding from the back porch. So relaxing and peaceful. Would definitely stay again if ever in the area.

Amazing Stay!!!

We just loved the surreal feeling of this house. It made us feel as if we were in the country side but we had frankfort and the crystal clear lakes right close by. The property manager was so informative and helpful. 12/10 will be booking again

Wedding Weekend in Frankfort

We came up here for a wedding. This house is very secluded and rural but only a 7 minute drive to Frankfort. The interior of the house is very dated; the interior finishes and appliances have not been updated in 30 years. That said, it was very clean and orderly.
