Little Beach Town Getaway
My family has been coming up to Frankfort for decades. This location had everything we needed including the extra bonus of a washer and dryer! It was so convenient and fun being close to the playgrounds, the beach, and shops for our teen and three year old. We felt very comfortable and had everything we needed. It was top 3 rentals for us.
