Host profile image
As your hosts, it’s our wish that you walk in and feel the stress of your day to day melt away. Make memories with family and friends, relish in the details and take photos that will make your memories last a lifetime.

Why they chose this property

Our cottage was named the Hey Betty Inn after our 5 year old dog, Betty. She is a 10lb Havanese, full of goofy personality. She was named after the incredible Betty White. You will see several ways we have paid homage to both Bettys throughout the cottage. We hope you have a wonderful stay and please do not hesitate to reach out to us if you have questions, or if there’s anything we can do to enhance your stay!

What makes this property unique

Expect a heightened cottage retreat. Unlike anything else offered in Port Franks. Nestled in your own little forest, and close to the river and lake, this property marries the cozy, getaway feeling you want with attention to detail that takes it far beyond your traditional vacation rental. After renting many cottages over the years, we designed this space to feel appropriate for all ages, and comfortable whether you’re returning from a day at the beach with the family, to hosting friends for some beverages on our legendary Lanai. With a background in event planning and expertise in creating extraordinary customer experiences, let us know how we can elevate your stay!
