Perfect Getaway!
Loved our stay at this charming cottage! It had everything we needed including peace and quiet. Cottage was very clean and decorated so nice. Also there's a nice outdoor grill and a place for an evening campfire. Cottage is just a few miles from several small towns and also close to a biking/hiking trail. We brought our bikes with us and had some really nice rides. Would definitely stay here again.

It was vey comfortable and cozy. It had just the right amount of space for my husband and I. It is close to the boat launch where we were able to launch each day we were there and go fishing. The only thing we thought that may have been a bit more accommodating was a bit larger refrigerator. It was a great stay!

Really enjoyed Carol's Cabin. Quietly tucked away. Very clean and reasonable price. Comfy bed. Much more offerred than a hotel. We were at a local wkd event at Frankfort. 7min away. Good communication. Perfect for 2 people. Kitchen has everything. Breakfast coffee teas provided. Bathroom well stocked. Its on a highway, but felt hidden and noise was not an issue. Will return! Model experience! Perfect.

Cute little place
Over all a great place. Only downfall is the road noise. We spent a lot more time there than planned due to the weather. Just miles away from a beautiful beach and great little towns.

Perfect Getaway Cabin
We loved our stay in this peaceful, quiet and lovely cabin. Hosts were very pleasant and made us feel very welcome. Location is close to Frankfort, Beulah and Benzonia and we visited, shopped and dined at all 3. We also brought our bikes and rode them on the nearby bike trail. Cabin decor was very cute and cabin had everything we needed. Loved our stay and would definitely consider staying here again.

Very close to Frankfort
The cottage is rustic but very clean . We knew this from the listing . We wanted the “up north “ feel . The road is a bit noisy during the day , but that was also stated in the listing . We were gone most of the day anyway . Owners were very attentive . It worked fine for us .

This was the first time my sister and I took a sister vacation. Super cute place and Lesa and Randy were awesome. Especially when we locked ourselves out…lol All the little ant hills freaked us out a bit, but other than that we had an amazing time and will most definitely be back!!! 😊

This studio cabin was the perfect place for us this weekend, as we attended a wedding at the Cherry Barn. Lesa left breakfast sandwiches for us, along with granola bars, juice, etc. which was a nice touch. We would stay here again.

Absolutely Perfect
We stayed here with our 3 year old son for 2 nights and it couldn’t have worked out better. We hiked in sleeping bear (30 min away). You must go to Frankfort to watch the sunset and walk to the lighthouse! The bed was comfortable and we appreciated all the little extra touches. We would definitely stay here again!

Cozy, comfortable cabin
Perfect for our visit with family near Frankfort -we were really just there to sleep and shower -( comfy bed and good shower ..) -this cabin is bigger than it looks in the photos and was VERY clean .A/C worked well and everything was just as described . One rarely finds coffee, oatmeal, breakfast sandwiches , juice provided by hosts .. a little extra touch that , as others have mentioned -is just really nice! Lesa and Randy are very friendly and responsive with communication - We have already reserved for next year again !

This cabin was adorable, clean and very comfy for our needs. We picked up groceries in town and there was everything we needed in terms of cooking for the weekend which was an added bonus. We stayed for a wedding and this was the perfect spot to relax and enjoy between wedding activities all weekend.

Lovely Escape
It was the perfect spot for two and a great location from the beach and hiking. Even though there are neighboring homes the privacy fence makes you feel like you have your own space. My partner loved our stay so much he told me he wouldn't mind coming back twice next year. Thank you so much for letting us stay and the breakfast sandwiches. We are looking forward to rent this place again in 2021.
