Great place to stay! Cozy warm on a snowy weekend. Host was very responsive and kept the snow clear. Beds are comfy, and they had everything we needed. Lots to do in the area. Highly recommend!
We loved our stay and everything was perfect! Teri was an amazing host and super helpful when we reached out. The barndominium is such a cool concept and help provide the perfect vibe for our golf trip!
We absolutely loved our time at this retreat. It was the perfect spot for our little family. Clean and comfortable and a good central location to nearby places like Sleeping Bear Dunes, Leland, Crystal Lake and more. The communication with the owner was fantastic. We plan to come back again for another stay!
We had such a wonderful stay at the barndominimum with our pups! It's quiet and private but close to restaurants, trails and beaches of Frankfort and Sleeping Bear Dunes. Teri has chosen beautiful cabin decor and stocks the cabin with some of the most thoughtful touches I've seen. Very nice bathroom supplies, washer/dryer access, and a well stocked kitchen.
This barndominium was fantastic! The homeowners spared no expense and all of the furnishings and finishing touches were outstanding. All the electronics and electrical gadgetry, including television and Wi-Fi were top-of-the-line. Outdoor furniture was tremendous very clean very well maintained!
Overall our stay was great! Cute little barndominium off the beaten path but not too far out of way. Easy travel to Frankfort. The property was very clean and well maintained. We loved the rustic decor. Not a huge fan of the TV location but if that’s the only negative that we have, then the VRBO owners must be doing something right!I loved that laundry soap, bath soaps, shampoo & conditioner was provided. Makes ease of packing so simple. Ohhh and a stock Keurig is always a perk!
Stayed here as a base camp for hunting near by, it was a perfect spot. The place was clean and great. Will definitely book here again when im in the area
