This new in 2006, 4 bedroom, 2 bath re-creation of an authentic farm house is located on all sports (not all crowded) Upper Herring Lake with 140' of private water frontage\*. The Farm House Cottage sits on 2.5 acres on a quiet, peaceful country road surrounded by a perfect blend of rolling hills, woodlands, orchards and vineyards. Privacy and elbow room awaits you in this beautifully decorated 2200 sq. ft. yet cozy getaway. Just minutes from Lake Michigan beaches, Frankfort and near many of Northern Michigan's premier vacation spots such as The Sleeping Bear Dunes and Traverse City. Custom ceramic tile, 5' plank flooring, custom woodwork, antique claw foot tub, Pottery Barn style decor and a mix of antique and custom furniture, will help make this a vacation to remember. This Home is also designed with family fun in mind, with separate areas for grown-ups and little ones alike. Also, just 1-2 minutes walk\*\* down the boardwalk through the protected natural area, await enough waterfront amenities to fill a barn! There is a row boat, 2 kayaks, 1 Floating Foam Aqua-Play-Mat, life jackets in various shapes & sizes, full dock w/moorings for extra boats, fire pit w/chairs, rope hammock, chaise lounge, and as an extra bonus we include the use a \*\*\*pontoon boat free of charge ( a $1,000 value, see Amenities for details). Oh, and did we mention 10 gallons of free premixed fuel! When these amenities are available: Pontoon boat w/10 gal free fuel (Memorial week til early October), Floating Aqua-Play-Mat (Memorial Week thru Labor Day Week), kayaks (May 1st til Nov 1st), and row boat(April 1st til Nov 15th), dock (Mid-May til Nov 1st). \*Typical Northern Michigan soft mica bottom, NOT SANDY. The lakefront feels mucky near the shoreline. \*\*2-3 minutes for healthy adults and children, for those with health issues it could take a little longer. Home also sits on a slight grade so the walk back could be a concern for those with health issues. \*\*\*As a FREE bonus to our guests in our summer months, we offer you the use of one of a pontoon boats. They are nothing special. They are clean and well maintained. They range in size from 18-24ft. They range in age from 20-30 years old w/2stroke motors ranging from 25 - 35 hp. While these boats may not fulfill the boating dreams of some people, they are perfect for a sunset cruise or a family fishing outing. We even supply you with 10 gallons of pre-mixed gasoline!. To get the most enjoyment from these boats it is recommended that person with a knowledge of boating and two stroke motors be involved operating them. If not we do have full instructions, and technical assistance available if necessary. See photo of typical pontoon boat. \---- Also we provide a starter supply of paper/soap products which should be enough for a typical 2 night stay for smaller groups of 2 - 4 people. For a complete list of "what is provided" and "things to bring", check out "Using the property”, on your “My Trip” page. \- For our winter guests we recommend bringing an all-wheel-drive vehicle or at the very least a front wheel drive with good snow tires!

Aug 27, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Love, love, LOVE Everything here was perfect. We stayed with a group of 11 from ages 1 to 82\. The property was so private and well maintained. We loved being visited by the hummingbirds and deer. The yard worked great for the little ones with a slight hill to run down, sandbox and swingset, and lots of room to run. We brought a blow up pool for them to play in while we were not down at the lake. The boardwalk to the lake is so beautiful and the wheelbarrow made it easy to haul all of our fishing gear down to the pontoon. (Two of the families in our party have boats, and the having use of the pontoon was so nice so we did NOT have to tow and put in and out of the water). The lake is great lake to teach kids to fish. We did not have one time where we ventured out and did not catch fish. We caught perch, LOTS The inside of the house was so clean. The beds were comfy with lots of extra pillows and blankets if you were chilly. The kitchen had everything we needed and then some! Lots of room in the main area and we never felt like we were on top of each other. The area is beautiful. If you turn right out of the driveway, you will come to Scenic Highway. Turn left for a short drive to the lovely town of Frankfort (shops, restaurants and a Family Fare). Turn right to head to Arcadia. Both less than 15 minute drives. We hiked the Baldy Dune area as well as Green Pointe Dune Nature Preserve. Thank you for a wonderful family getaway! ##### Wendy S. Stayed 7 nights in Aug 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Valerie S.

Jan 16, 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Cozy cottage for a group of adults near skiing We wanted to rent a house close to Crystal Mountain that was dog friendly. This place is about 20 minutes to the mountain. If you are okay with being in the middle of nowhere, this is a nice place to hunker down in. We loved the Christmas tree upon walking in. Really cozy! We were six adults and the space was great for us; we spent 1/2 a day watching DVDs as the weather was not great. Just to note a few things: No internet/WiFi - bummer as you can’t use any streaming service on the tv. Wish the tv was larger, or at least outside the cupboard as it’s hard to see fully from all seats. You aren’t near much and the roads are dark and in bad weather it’s a bit sketch to drive. Just be careful. Come armed with everything you want to do, eat and drink as it’s a trek to go out to get something. Some nice add-ons would be a hot tub and fireplace - would be even cozier! Host was nice, communicative and friendly. We enjoyed spending three nights here for NYE. ##### Dalia M. Stayed 3 nights in Dec 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Abby R.

The wind didn’t cooperate for kite skiing on the lake. However it was a lovely weekend and the property provided everything we needed. ##### Abby R.

Plenty of space for everyone and the large kitchen worked great for cooking the big dinner. Some of the kids were a little apprehensive about not having wifi but with the all the games in the kids room, I don't think it was missed at all. It was November so not beach weather but we still enjoyed adventuring down to check out the lake during an early season snow storm. Even with the cold weather, the house stayed very warm and cozy. Would love to come back! ##### Ben L. Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jane G.

Perfect for our family group of 6 adults and 2 children. We used pontoon boat and fished on the lake, hiked at Arcadia dunes, and visited St Ambrose cellars distillery. ##### Jane G.

Our son and daughter-in-law, our 17year old grandson and 5 year old grand daughter and our daughter. Everyone had their own space. There are beautiful beaches, cute little towns to explore, and family friendly venues for dining outside. We fished, swam, explored, hiked and had a great time. ##### Arletha G.

We had a great week at the farmhouse! Location was great and the property was quiet and peaceful. The lake was beautiful and the pontoon and kayaks were so fun. We found the house had everything we needed. Lots of space and the kitchen was well stocked. ##### Kim H.
