Serendipity House is a one-of-a-kind inn designed for vacationers who want a unique experience that includes their accommodations. Situated on Main Street a block from Lake Michigan and at the edge of Frankfort's charming downtown district, the inn recalls an earlier time when residents would call out greetings from their front porch to passersby.

Serendipity has the big front porch and updated living space with all the amenities for vacationers who enjoy something unique.

Serendipity House offers lodging in five suites just steps from the beach. Each suite has its own entrance, kitchen and bath with views of the resort town and a large front porch for relaxing and enjoying the passing parade.

Pack your beach gear and head west a block to enjoy Lake Michigan's beaches and spectacular sunsets. Cross the street to start biking the 22-mile Betsie Valley Trail. Or turn east to explore downtown Frankfort's unique shops and restaurants; enjoy a first-run film in the recently restored Garden Theater; or celebrate the season with an award-winning craft beer at the Stormcloud Brewery. Then come back for fall colors, winter skiing, and spring awakenings.

With five suites--some of which are inter-connecting--we're especially well-suited for wedding parties, family reunions or for sharing vacations with friends.

Along with the large, front porch, we provide a picnic table at the rear of the property, comfortable chairs, fire pit, Weber grills and bike racks.

This listing presents the Manitou, a large suite that sleeps 2-4 guests. Featuring one private bedroom with a queen size bed, a living room with a couch that pulls out into a bed, large dining room, full kitchen and bath.

If the Manitou is booked on your chosen dates, please check the calendars for the Betsie (HomeAway #195186); Nannybird (HomeAway #186194); Lakeview (HomeAway #188035); or Sandune (HomeAway #185719).

    Great location and overall satisfactory amenities. Pros: Location, lots of sight seeing in the area, cute town, felt safe, clean inside, water/sewer work perfectly, lots of room to spread out, comfortable bed, extra space in back to park cars for unloading/loading, ample kitchen amenities. Awesome front porch for reading and coffee in the morning or people watching in the evening. WiFi. Cons (not a deal breaker): curb appeal uninviting (appeared unkept, tall grass which is purposely there to prevent erosion but no effort in beautifying/honing the landscape around the property), Sticky/uneven doors (front (interior) door and bathroom door), dining room/kitchen was darkly lit with a couple bulbs out. Dining room table/chairs a bit worse for wear and uncomfortable, TV small for the room (kids used phones for entertainment), pillows are flat (bring your own), walls thin (because old house). Parking: I don't know if this is an issue that can be solved with the municipality, but I think parking spaces in front of the rentals should be designated for renters during peak seasonal tourism. We were able to move our vehicle to the front in the evening after beach crowd dissipated but having to do that every night was inconvenient. Would consider returning.

    We were fishing in a tournament and this location was great for our crew. Close to the marina and good amenities.

    Frankfort is a great town, the location of the place was amazing and we were able to walk everywhere in town and down to see the beautiful sunsets, however the Manitou Suite was only ok. It was very dark, little natural lighting nor decent lighting within, with zero views. So on the day it was rainy it was like trying to make due with night lights in the kitchen in dining room. Considering we were mostly on the go, the place was suitable to our needs and comfortable enough.

    We had our family of 4 ( one is a brand new Soft Coat Wheaton Terrier - Nori).. stay here. It was great and perfectly located from main shopping, all restaurants & the beach. We would recommend this to anyone who has some days to spend in Frankfort. We rented the Manitou suite & there was one bedroom with a queen bed & one sleeper sofa in living room (queen-size). Kitchen & dining room plus bathroom with a tub/shower. The standard is a little older but oh so charming!! The patio had a great swing and we really felt at home. Perfect for touring the area and taking day trips & the beach with the lighthouse walkway is great. Thank you.?
