This adorable and cozy little house was perfect for our family over the holidays. The hosts were very responsive and provided all the information we needed for smooth check in and check out.It was wonderful in winter months, and I’m sure it’s even more charming is the warmer months for the beach and fire pit!

Frankfort is a great town; close to the National Park, many bike trails, nature very close at hand and yet still many shops and restaurants in the area. This location was all that we needed for a great week. Very tidy place.

Perfect Cottage Getaway!

The cottage was well maintained and very clean when we arrived. The neighborhood is quiet and super convenient, just a couple blocks from downtown, only a few min to the beach. There was plenty of space for the 4 of us and it is very cute inside. Communication with the property manager was great and check-in was easy. Would definitely stay here again!
