We were in Frankfort with our grown children for a family wedding in the Crystal Lake area. There were nine of us, and the accommodation could not have been more ideal. The beautiful home is up the hill from the beach with magnificent Lake Michigan views and only a 10 minute walk to the charming restaurants and shops of Frankfort. There is spectacular hiking within a short driving distance to the north and south. Bikes, kayaks and SUPs are available to rent in downtown Frankfort at Crystal Lake adventure outfitters. We rode bikes one morning along the trails leading out of downtown. I believe the trail is 11 miles long, so it is a great trek out and back.We also had our daughter’s Australian Shepherd with us, and she enjoyed the small fenced yard and the hike down to the beach. We also appreciated the well-stocked kitchen, extra blankets and towels.
