We stayed at White Birch for a week for a family getaway. The property was clean and comfortable. The kitchen was well appointed and the towels and linens provided were clean and nice. The property is located in a quiet neighborhood at the end of the street, so it feels quite private and peaceful. Beautiful views from the back patio. We enjoyed the fire pit and the kids enjoyed the ping pong and foosball tables in the garage, as well as the bikes (after we put air in the tires). I would recommend staying here for a peaceful getaway.

Adorable house that has been newly updated. The place was immaculately cleaned and felt like home. The owners also let us bring our dogs which we truly appreciated and they loved chasing their ball in the huge private front yard. Super close to the town of Frankfurt which is on the lake with cute shops and restaurants. Wonderful place to stay and enjoy the area in!

We really enjoyed the updated space. The ping pong and foose ball tables were a hit with our grandchildren. Quiet neighborhood. The gift bowl of goodies was a welcomed treat after a long travel day. It was a very comfortable stay and would definately return.

Loved everything about this property. Cozy & loved all the furnishings. It was in a perfect location close to Frankfort, trails, breweries. There was a nice short trail head 5” from the home. Would return for another visit.

Home is recently updated and nice. Dining Room had a very nice table, though there could have been better chairs. Kitchen seemed to be adequately stocked with plates, glasses, and utensils. Beds are very firm. There were many summer toys in the garage including several bikes. Furnace was a bit loud. Checkin could have been smoother, as the instructions were to contact the property manager and that she would meet us at the house. Instead, she just gave us the lock code, which could have been done in the app.

This remodeled ranch was the perfect stay for our work crew. Some owners shy away from businesses looking to house their crew but we were warmly welcomed. This is the second property our crew has rented from Agape properties (the first was in Kalkaska) both properties were managed well and lovely homes.

Pulling into the driveway we tryed the garage door lockbox. (It was the first one we saw) That didn’t work, so we went to the front door. The home was lovely to enter, clean and up-to-date. The snacks were a bonus as it was late. The beds were excellent (loved the linens and pillows) we all slept well. Very nice to have laundry and 2 full baths. I would definitely stay again, my only complaint was the cleaning fee for one nights stay was more then expected.

Elberta is located right on the Betsie River with the patio overlooking a wooded marsh teeming with birds and black squirrels. Sunrises are amazing as are evenings grilling and sitting by a fire. The house is equipped with everything one could need. Plenty of room, 2 baths, nice kitchen etc. Located 3 mins. from Frankfort and Rt. 22 leading to the north locations of Sleeping Bear Dunes, Fishtown and Grand Traverse Bay. All great day trips. We'll be back!

The house sits on a quiet cul de sac nestled up to the Betsie River. Nice sun rises over the vegetation near the river. The house appears to have all new appliances, a total makeover including both baths and the kitchen which is open and easy to work in. It was very nice! We are hoping to return in the summer as we do love the area.

Very impressed with the cleanliness and thoughtfulness staging of the home. It had everything we needed and we loved how close it is to downtown Frankfort!

For starters, the house had no air conditioning. It did not say that it did or didn't in the property description, but I would have liked to know that it did not have A/C. We just assumed it did since it is so updated. We were there in last week of August with temps in the 70's so we managed fine, but the humidity on the rainy night was unpleasant and getting ready after a shower was warmer than I'd like. House is in very nice condition. 2 full baths was a huge bonus for the 4 of us. Kitchen is great! After our stay we were told by local charter captain that there was a horrific crime that happened here in November of 2020. Use a simple online search and decide for yourself. While this might not deter some, I would have liked to know that before booking. I did call VRBO to ask what the required disclosure is on something like this and they told me that it isn't required. There is an amazing hike just down the street uphill to the top of one of dunes, the view is amazing and well worth the sandy uphill climb. If you are outdoorsy and/or active make sure you do it. Loved the town of Frankfort, lots of good places to eat. Overall we were satisfied with the stay, just disappointed at the no mention of air conditioning AND the history of the house.

Thank you for a wonderfully clean home, the new kitchen and furnishings can't be beat! We enjoy the area, the trails, the beach in Frankfort and canoeing on the Platte River.

We stayed here for the 4th of July weekend. The home was cleaned, cute, and comfortable. Close to all the fun activities Elberta and Frankfort had to offer. Sadly the firework show was canceled due to weather. Firepit at the home was small and close to the house where lots of bugs gathered. I would recommend moving it to the side of the home. We truly enjoyed our stay and looking forward to coming back next year.
