With charm to spare and a great location within walking distance of Empire Beach, hiking and biking trails, quaint local restaurants and shops, and Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore, you’ve chosen wisely with this adorable cottage. The kids and family dog will love the fenced back yard, and you’ll love the cozy firepit, perfect for roasting marshmallows at the end of the day.
Inside, you’ll find a colorful, open space, ideal for reconnecting with family and friends. Use the full kitchen to prepare snacks for the beach, or sit down for a meal together at the sunny dining room table. After a day of exploration, grab a board game for some more together time, stream the latest release on either TV, or use the free WiFi to post pics of the day’s dune climb to your social media. End the day with a family cookout, and drift off to sleep dreaming of the next day’s adventures.

Spacious rooms, walking distance to Front Street. Quiet residential area. Close to beachfront at Lake Michigan. Dog friendly.
Perfect place for a little r&r during the fall foilage season. Easy walk to the beach, easy walk to the corner hamburger joint. Very comfortable and welcoming.
Clean…clean….and clean! Had everything we needed. Close to Lake Michigan. Comfy and safe.
Nicely furnished with high quality. Comfty beds. Good location for visiting Frankfort to the peninsulas.
We booked this cottage for its location and pet friendliness. Both of those are great reasons to stay here! A few things to know: The backyard is fenced but our small 11 pound pup found lots of garbage in the grass and also managed to find spaces to escape so you do have to watch them out there. We let Vacasa know immediately about cleanliness issues but those were not tended to because “their biz hours are weekdays 9-5” which belies the service industry. The front door needs attention; we had trouble locking/unlocking it because it is not square and at one point was completely stuck shut. Overall, we still had a great time because of the location but want folks to know what they can expect when renting this place!
Easy to walk everywhere
This was the perfect place to stay as we traveled with 2 adult golden retrievers. So grateful that property owners allow pets. The dogs and humans had a wonderful stay and we will book again next year.
Close to everything, very homey. Waze and google sent us down a dead end so be aware there is a gap in this street. Everything else was wonderful.
The place was exactly what we expected, super clean, and had everything we needed. A great home base for exploring the northwest lower peninsula!
