The house was great, the location was perfect for us, the owners were always there for any questions. They were extremely accommodating to our family.Thank you for a wonderful experience, it made our daughter‘s wedding so enjoyable!!
We really enjoyed our stay at the Frankfort Cottage. Great location made it easy to walk to downtown. Nice playground across the street. House was clean and had a fully stocked kitchen which made it easy to prepare meals. The owners were very quick to respond to any questions. Our 2nd visit. Will definitely be back!
We loved our stay in Frankfort
The house is across from a park where our kids played basketball and on the play ground
Easy access to down town and beach
We walked to ice cream almost every night.
Outside areas provided for great conversation and game night activities.
And the Sauna was a special treat.
Would definitely stay here again
The house was nice.It had all the basic things you might need, plenty of room for the 5 of us. I personally loved sitting on the large porch. The location is nice and close to all the cute shops and Lake Michigan. I would definitely recommend staying there.Iwouldrecommeujwas nice. It was very close to
We have stayed here a few times over the years, the owners are easy to work with and have made some great updates! It's great for families, right across the street from a park and walking distance to downtown.
Our favorite things were the location to downtown Frankfort (and the beach!) and the ping pong table / hangout areas available in the house!
Owners were very responsive and helpful!
This was the perfect location for our vacation. It was walking distance from everything downtown. And our dog got to enjoy it as well. We greatly enjoyed our time.
My significant other and I needed somewhere to stay last minute for long weekend ski trip. Booking was very simple and quick and the property was great! We only had 2 people but it could certainly house and sleep many more. Would stay again!
We spend large amounts of time on the porch during our stay, watching the world go by and all the people enjoying the park across the street. We walked to town every morning. Won’t be able to rent the house again next year because of having a walking toddler around the many steps in and outside of the building. We were very comfortable and would highly recommend this stay

Skiing with Family
We had a great time. Loved having lots of bedrooms and two full bathrooms for the 6 of us. The slopes were only about 15 min away and the local Storm Cloud Brewery was perfect. We'd love to come again in the summer.

Location, location, location !!
This house is perfectly located to walk to downtown Frankfort and the beach to watch the beautiful sunsets ! There is a park across the street that we enjoyed going to after dinner to play "around the world" basketball and play tennis. The owners were extremely prompt in calling us back when we had a couple of questions. We had a great stay !
We're so thankful for the opportunity to stay at this great home once again. Perfect set up and location for relaxing, skiing, casino and more. Just as we did for my husband's birthday before, we celebrated 2 of our son's birthdays. Thank you guys so much! The memories made in your home, will last forever.
Stayed at this wonderful home for my son's 13th birthday. The house was exactly as described and the loction was perfect even in the cold month of January. They'd just renovated the bathroom which was very well done. I would certainly stay again, the hosts were very easy to work with during the entire process. A must stay!
Had fun doing all our favorite things around Crystal Lake. House was just the right size for my family. Enjoyed the ping pong table. Unfortunately they were paving the road fight in front of the house while we were there. Also this years the alewives were all over the beach.
Great location! Basement bedroom is really musty smelling and there’s no way anyone would sleep down there. It’s a good value though since it’s across from the park and a short walk to downtown and the beach!
My somewhat extended, multigenerational family stayed here a week and loved it. The young kids loved being able to walk to the village, the beach and the fishing pier. The basketball courts were in use by them every night until the lights were turned off at 10:45pm. The adults enjoyed everything about Frankfort: shopping, eating, beach. The house was clean and very nicely laid out. The porch is fantastic for relaxing in the morning with coffee and at night after a great day. The owners were very responsive.
