This property went above and beyond my expectations, and I would recommend it without reservation. I would love to stay in this VRBO again! My mom, 3 sisters, and I had a fabulous mother-daughter stay in Frankenmuth and we wished we would have planned a longer stay! The only concern I had prior to our stay was the ramp leading into the house as it had received some attention within another review. It certainly is worn and should be replaced (to match the impeccable interior!), but I found it sturdy (I was so worried it was going to have wobbly boards) and my 94 year old mom was able to walk up and down, with her cane, without a problem. The location was perfect, the layout was perfect, the seating was perfect, and the decor was so cozy. We loved this house so much! Thank you!!!

The house was all you can wish for in a Vrbo. Large rooms all tastefully decorated. Two kitchens fully equipped. The whole house has been completely renovated. The location is in the middle of town perfect to explore Frankenmuth by foot. Perfect for a short or long vacation.
