We love the area and the house was clean and well stocked. Awesome location - my preschooler loved being able to walk to the park after dinner. Plenty of dishes, sharp knives, cotton sheets, plenty of pillows and towels.

You will be so happy that you picked this gem of place in Elberta to book your stay! This house is super clean, had everything that we needed and it was decorated so beautifully. Simply put wow! What a great location, so close to the many beautiful places that we love up here. You will want to come back and stay again. We do. Thank you Clark, we had a wonderful time!

We travel up to the Frankfort area frequently but have never stayed in Elberta. We loved our stay. The cottage is a short walk to the waterfront park and just a little farther to bluffs overlooking Lake Michigan.
The home is nicely renovated with a mid century modern vibe. The beds were comfortable, the bathroom was large with stackable washer/dryer. Stainless steel appliances. Grill and fire ring in the yard. Clark was very great to work with and we will be back.

Just right for our purpose. Explored area. Found great restaurants. Played table games . Together we intentionally pulled together memories of parents’ and family’s lifeline in written form with goal of passing it on to our children.

This house was perfect for our parent/teen/grandparent vacation! Easy access to Elberta and Frankfort beaches, biking trails, great restaurants, and many ice cream options. Property was exactly as listed and owner was awesome. Great place!

The house was a great fit for all of us. We like to share a house with a couple who also has a daughter the same age as ours when visiting the area. It’s a nice quiet location close to beaches, parks and biking trails. I loved having amenities to get us through a week and the beds were comfortable for us. The house is beautiful and we loved staying here.

The weather didn’t cooperate for our vacation, but where we stayed did! We were pleased with the cleanliness and comfort of our rental. It was situated across the bay from Frankfort and was very close to some of the highlights of the northwestern Michigan area.
We were able to keep in touch with Clark Most, the owner, who, by the way, is an excellent photographer!

Clark' s home is clean & offers great location to Betsie lake, Elberta Beach, and town of Frankfort & Frankfort Beach. Its in a quiet neighborhood yet walking distance to the new Furnace Street distillery with pizza food truck & amphitheater on Betsie Lake with music on Mondays. Only a 5 min drive to Frankfort its a great place. Communication with owner is great, home has everything as described in listing. Lots of local areas to fish nearby too! This is our 4th time staying here and we would stay again.

We had a great stay at this property and it was the best place we've rented in the area over the past 10 years we've been coming here. My only wish was for better pillows, sheets, comforters but I was glad I didn't have to bring them all for the beds (which I've had to do in the past). The owner was very communicative and friendly and did everything possible to make our stay a great one. Highly recommend!

Pleasant and Quiet Stay
The property matches the description and photos perfectly. The home sits in a quiet, out of the way neighborhood with no traffic. It has simple access to a nearby highway which allowed us to use it as a launchpad while we toured the beautiful countryside, lakes, and attractions.
The property offers multiple amenities such as bicycles and a fire pit. Our host was helpful and provided a wealth of information that improved our stay. He ensured that everything was ready and comfortable. There were plenty of towels and all the other things that other owners sometimes miss.
We would definitely stay with this host again.

Our family stayed here for a week starting with the 4th of July holiday. We found the house to be clean and well maintained. It was a great location to enjoy the beach of Lake Michigan, biking, hiking, shopping...anything you would want to do in Northwestern Michigan. The host communicated very well. We would love to stay again.

Nice west Michigan home
The house is located within walking of the water and several nice restaurants. The rest of our family was staying at Sleeping Bear National Park which was a nice easy drive. The location of the house makes it easy to get to surrounding towns and is a nice retreat at the end the day.

the property is in an excellent location to the beach and to serve as a hub to venture out for other activities. The Betsie River trail is awesome also.
