About this property
Modern A-Frame Near Frankenmuth & Bay City
Experience a one-of-a-kind peaceful A-Frame retreat in the Great Lakes Bay area. Perfect for couples or small groups seeking a quiet, comfortable stay. Tucked into a quiet neighborhood, yet just minutes from Bay City’s charming downtown—stroll local shops, cozy cafés, waterfront views, and restaurants—with Frankenmuth just a short drive away. Slow mornings, fresh coffee, and a space designed to unwind.
This property features two A-frame cabins connected by garages (duplex-style), each with private entrances and no shared living space.
It's the first and only twin double Aframe of its kind in Michigan. The property was built in 1971, remodeled with modern touches yet keeping its charm and character. You haven't seen anything like this twin double aframe before!
The space:
- 3 bedrooms, 1 bathroom
- Open-concept living with high ceilings, exposed beams, and large windows
- Central AC & heat
- Fast WiFi + 55” 4K Smart TV
- Electric fireplace
- Board games & cards
Kitchen:
Fully equipped with stainless steel appliances, Keurig coffee maker, kettle, blender, toaster, microwave, and cooking essentials. Complimentary coffee (regular & decaf), tea, sugar, and creamer provided.
Sleeping arrangements:
King bed (main floor)
Queen bed (loft)
Twin bed (loft)
Bathroom & laundry:
- Washer & dryer
- Complimentary laundry pods
- Fresh linens, towels, and basic toiletries
Parking:
Free driveway parking for up to 2 vehicles (back-to-back).

QUIET HOURS ARE FROM 10pm - 7am.
This is a quiet residential neighborhood and parties are not allowed. We want our guests to have a good time but please keep the noise to a minimum and be respectful of our neighbors. Per Airbnb's recommendation, we have installed a noise monitor inside the house. Failure to follow the quiet hour requirements will result in a minimum $250 fine and a phone call to local law enforcement.
CHILDREN SAFETY:
Please keep an eye on your younger children. Lots of share edges along with steep, floating stairs. We are not liable for any accidents during your stay. Please do not book if you feel the space is not suitable for children.
PETS:
Due to family allergies, we do not allow pets in the home. If you are traveling with a service animal, we will do our very best to accommodate you, but we would encourage you to look for other pet friendly accommodations.

- No parties and loud music. No music outside.
- No smoking of any kind (cigarettes, vapors, marijuana, etc) both inside and outside the house.
- No illegal activity.
- Do not flush sanitary items down the toilet.
We do have two exterior cameras to ensure the property is safe at all times (front and back entrances).
Failure to observe any of the house rules will result in a minimum $250 fine.
CHECK IN Procedure:
- Check in time is 3pm.

Your cleaning fee covers a normal amount of clean up in addition to washing and folding linen and folding your washed towels. Any additional cleaning (i.e. excess trash, dirt and sand, stains, etc) will result in an additional cleaning charge.
We do not expect our guests to clean during their stay, but we do expect guests to respect our home. We would appreciate it if you leave the house in the same or better condition as you found it :)
