Everything about our trip exceeded expectations! The house is in a great location - we biked to the beach every day & walked to shops & restaurants (and ice cream!) every evening. A couple 1/2 day trips to Glen Arbor / Sleeping Bear, and the alpine slide at Crystal Mountain. The house is as described and Madeline was great on communication. Highly recommend! ##### Craig C.

Jun 30, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Frankfort stay This home was perfect for our family of 5. Located downtown, everything was within walking distance. The laundry room is brand new and huge. We so appreciated that because we had stayed somewhere else prior and had to do 2 loads right away. There is no yard for kids to play in, but we did so much hiking and other activities that it was not an issue. Nice quiet neighborhood too. ##### Michael R.

Location is very convenient, 5 min walk to beach and one block away from all the activities. Madeline is very responsive, trying to make your stay as pleasant as possible. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2024 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Cozy, Secluded, Year-Round Cabin Rental With A Hot Tub!](https://www.expedia.ca/Munising-Hotels-Cozy.h27265412.Hotel-Information) > > [St. Clair Inn](https://www.expedia.ca/Port-Huron-Hotels-The-St-Clair-Inn.h36685.Hotel-Information) > > [Best Western Sault Ste.
