This cottage was super cute and the location was great. It was almost right between the Sleeping Bear Dunes and Frankfort. There is a canoe rental place just down the road. The cottage was super clean and comfortable. Jerry was very friendly, responsive and helpful with suggestions and tips for the area. We would definitely stay here again.

Beautiful well equipped cabin

We loved our stay at the cabin. We found everything we needed loved being able to come back and have a fire to close out our evenings. Very nice and comfortable furnishings and bedding. Nice and clean. We highly recommend and it was an easy drive to several local towns.
