Frankfort House | Sunset Bay - Lakefront, Large, and Gorgeous with Kayaks Included!

5 Bedroom House with TV, Wellness Facilities and Guest Services

This is a truly exceptional waterfront property in Frankfort! It was built in 2003 and was just purchased by the new owners in December, 2020. The new owners have made a number of great upgrades to the property in terms of furniture, appliances, and amenities!
INTERACTION WITH GUESTS:
We check-in all guests in person, provide them with an overview of the house and answer any questions that they may have, and from there we are available locally to answer any questions or address any issues.
NEIGHBORHOOD:
The location of the home is wonderful in that, in addition to being a great waterfront property, it is only about 1 mile from the start of downtown Frankfort and it is only about 2 miles from the house to Frankfort Public Beach on Lake Michigan. With the bike trail, it is a scenic and pleasant walk or bike ride from the property to downtown Frankfort and the beach. Downtown Frankfort features a wonderful and very family-friendly array of shops, restaurants, and cafes as well as Stormcloud Microbrewery and the beautiful and historic Garden Theater. Both in the summer and, particularly in the winter, Crystal Mountain Resort offers a wonderful variety of family activities including downhill skiing, snowboarding, cross-country skiing, golf, chair lift rides, and an alpine slide. Crystal Mountain is only about 16 miles (a 22-minute drive) from this vacation home!
There is an abundance of natural beauty in the area with much of it residing publicly in Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore. This large and beautiful national lakeshore features incredible views of Lake Michigan from pristine dunes, miles upon miles of hiking trails, and extremely fun kayaking, tubing, paddle boarding, and/or canoeing excursions on the scenic Platte River. The start of Sleeping Bear Dunes is only about 10 miles north of this vacation home along beautiful M22, which itself provides for a great time driving up through the Leelanau Peninsula and exploring the charming little beach towns along the way.
If bigger city activities are desired, downtown Traverse City is only about a 1-hour drive from the property. Traverse City is the economic, cultural, and entertainment hub for all of northern Michigan and features a vast abundance of charming shops, great restaurants, and wonderful nightlife and entertainment.

Summary: We've rented a house every October for the past 25 years and this one was spectacular. Roomy. Cozy. Extremely well equipped kitchen. Comfortable beds. And just a pleasant, laid back vibe. The incredible fall color was the icing on top of this most delicious cake.
