Jul 23, 2025 Liked: Check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy Location of house was great, great views of the sunset from back porch. House was nice, plenty of room. There were a couple of issues but owner was very quick to respond and get resolved. I was surprised there were no mosquitoes, we didn't see any which was really great.Water in the house tasted a little off so recommend getting bottled or a way to filter it. Lake water was very clear but there is a fair amount of plant life. We rented a boat so would swim in deeper water but if swimming around the dock you will see and feel it. Overall, we had a great time and really enjoyed ourselves. ##### Tom N. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sandra F.

We love the fact that we have a lake right in front and can kayak or canoe any time we wanted. Our biggest issue was the fruit flies. They were pretty bad this time and we did everything we could to get rid of them. Pete was very accommodating when we wanted to check in a little earlier in the day, which we appreicated. We hope to do this again in the future! ##### Laurie P. Stayed 7 nights in Sep 2022 ### 8/10 Good #### debra J.

The door from the LR to porch did not line up, so it was difficult to close. Suggest that you add (for those of us who recycle) that there is recycling available in Frankfort, single stream. Folks don't NEED to go there, but good to know if people want to make the extra effort to recycle. ##### debra J.

The owner Peter was great was from the beginning to the end. He greeted us upon arrival and made us feel right at home. He showed us all of the local attractions and gave us a tour of the Lake House so that we felt comfortable during our stay. He was very quick with responding to emails and answering our questions. The Lake House was absolutely stunning! It was perfect for a weekend vacation. We wish we could have stayed longer and did not want to leave. The house was clean, kitchen was fully stocked, bathrooms very clean and full stocked, the beds were super comfortable. The kids loved their beds as well! Our children enjoyed everything this Lake House had to offer. The house came stocked with games. Every room had a TV equalized with Netflix, Hulu. Although we had so much enjoying nature that we barley watched it haha. We were able to Kayak and Canoe provided by the owner of the Lake House. The house sits right on the lake so every morning you could see the sun glistening over the water. The birds chirping. We enjoyed s’mores on the fire pit provided by the Lake House as well at night time. We enjoyed a nice hike about 15 min as well! If you are looking for a getaway with your family and children(toddlers included!) Property#195740 on Upper Herring Lake is the place to go! Definitely deserving of all 5 stars! Thank you for an incredible stay and we look forward to coming back again! ##### Melissa M. Stayed 2 nights in May 2020 ### 6/10 Okay #### Toni F., Westerville Ohio Jul 30, 2023 Liked: Check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### A mixed review We had mixed feelings about our stay. The house space is fine, the rooms are large and the layout works well. There is a nice large kitchen table that does not appear in the online pics. The backyard water front was relaxing, the various water toys were fun and as others have said, the lake is quiet with little boat traffic. Our negative issues had to do with cleanliness and maintenance. We’ve shared much of this with Peter. Many kitchen things were dirty. With three families all bringing food, we took care of it ourselves not wanting to wait for someone to come and clean. While they look great in the pics, nearly every upholstered piece of furniture in the kitchen and great room was very dirty – it’s been a long time since they were cleaned. Due to well water, the inside of the washer and soap dispenser, dishwasher, showers and the shower liners were all heavily stained. The kitchen and bathroom fixtures are old and the kitchen ones leaked. The white towels used in the bathrooms were also stained yellow and some had holes in them. Not shown in the online pics is an extension to the dock which is great. Unfortunately, it's slanted and part of itis under water. The A/C unit was not working well. We told Peter on Fri. and on Sat. he said it would be replaced. We've rented homes for 12 years. We paid $806/night for this house and at that level, we don't expect problems. With proper attention to cleaning and maintenance, our issues could have easily been avoided. ##### Toni F. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Terry T. Jul 7, 2025 ##### Terry T.

My parents, husband and 3 children under the age of 9 all enjoyed staying at this property. It had everything we needed. Downstairs is a substantial King bed suite with attached bathroom. Upstairs is a Queen bedroom, a full bathroom, a bedroom with bunk beds and a queen bed and a loft for playing games or just relaxing. The real gem of this place is the backyard which sits beautifully on the lake and a dock for the kids to jump off of and swim. The property is wonderfully private and remote. The lake is sleepy and has the best sunsets. We rented a pontoon boat and took the kids tubing and water skiing. We spent a day at Sleeping bear dunes which is a must and another day exploring Frankfort. Frankfort is an adorable little town with shopping, restaurants and ice cream and has the most beautiful beach and even more stunning sunset. Our drive was 13min to town and about 40min to Sleeping Bear Dunes. We loved our location and proximity to exploring the town and everything northern MI has to offer. We will definitely return!! ##### Heather H. Stayed 4 nights in Aug 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Lauren W.

We had a GREAT time at this house on Upper Herring lake - fishing, pontooning, skiing, golfing, eating, gaming, shopping and sightseeing - so much to do! We had our "all adults" family of my wife and I, our son and his wife and our daughter and her soon-to-be fiance - and everyone loved the house and all the activities available to do around Frankfort. The weather was awesome each day (low 60's, high 70's) and we ran out of time to do all the things we had on our list of to-do's (didn't get to go biking or hiking). The house is SO comfortable and the neighborhood is extremely quiet - we ate breakfast on the back porch, played games at the dining room table, played yard games in the back yard, watched the sunset from the Adirondack chairs and just generally relaxed and enjoyed northern Michigan. Played Arcadia Bluffs golf course - words can't describe it - you need to see/play it yourself to understand just how awesome the setting is and good the golf course is - easily top 50 in the country if not better! Followed a lot of the recommendations for dining on the list of restaurants posted in the house and none disappointed - especially liked The Glenwood in Onekuma and Birch & Maple in Frankfort - GREAT dinners! Rented a pontoon from McDonald Marine and went fishing on Lake Michigan with Captain Eric Andersen. Just a great trip - before grandkids start coming along - for our six adults making lasting memories! Highly recommend this house as your home base for a trip to the Frankfort, MI area. ##### Jeff M.

The fishermen had fun casting from the dock. The kayaks and canoe were used multiple times. We accidentally found Crystal Mountain alpine sledding, only a short drive away, which gave our grandson his “best day ever!” Would come back. ##### Patricia H.

Aug 23, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### A Perfect Michigan Getaway Our family of 4 adults had a wonderful stay at this beautiful property! The location is ideal - situated on quiet Upper Lake Herring and less than a 10 min. drive to a stunning, private Lake Michigan beach, and nearby to Frankfort and Beulah. The home is nicely updated with hardwood floors throughout, and is well stocked with everything from spices and plastic wrap to laundry detergent. The paddle boards and kayaks were enjoyed daily! Host Pete was very responsive & accomodating, promptly replying to all our questions. His family legacy of hospitality is evident. We visited the alpaca farm, the Gwen Frostic store, hiked the Green Point Dunes trail, enjoyed Watervale Beach at Lake Michigan, dined in Frankfort & Crystal Lake / Beulah, appreciated gorgeous sunsets every night, and were amazed by the nighttime sky - saw shooting stars / meteors almost every night! It was exactly the laid-back retreat we were looking for. ##### Felicia R. Stayed 4 nights in Aug 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Vicki L.

Our entire family, ages 3 to 65, had a Great time! The kayaks, canoe, and fire pit were big hits. There were plenty of lifejackets for safety. We would happily rent this house again! ##### Vicki L.
