The house has everything you need and is in a great location. On a quiet street and plenty of space. Kids loved riding the bike trail to Crystal Lake and the beaches the best.

We had a wonderful stay at the candy house! The home is cozy and the host does a great job of making sure that guests have everything they need while visiting. Located in a peaceful place and so close to the lake and all the beautiful spots in the region!

Such a cute house and just perfect for our family of children, teens and older adults.

We had a wonderful time at this home. It was so nice that it accommodated a couple of families and was close enough to all the “up north” activities we were hoping to do. The owners were quick to reply to us when we communicated with them. Great place!

This was the second time we rented this house. Three families and two dogs up north for a ski weekend. Love the sleepy town of Elberta. Close to everything you need. Frankfort across the bay. Crystal Mountain a 20 minute drive. The old house has plenty of rooms, beds, and spaces. Furnished very well. Easy to book. Very accommodating owner. Plan to rent again!

This is first time we came as group to see fall leaves. Location is nice. House is cute and very close to both local lake and Lake Michigan.

Plenty of space for many guests. Close to biking and hiking trails.

I enjoyed staying with my husband, 7 adult friends and 1 child at this large and versatile Elberta house. I hated to leave! The dining table easily seated all 10 of us, which was perfect for eating our meals together. The table was nice for playing games, crafting, and planning outings. I spent mornings reading and chatting on the front porch, appreciated the glider. We could easily walk to nearby village restaurants and streets and on the recreational trail to Frankfort. All but the two bunk rooms accommodated adults well. Also, outdoor gas grill worked great. We all would have liked brighter light fixtures over the dining table and in the library room (to avoid having to move lights around to brighten areas), and a dresser or shelves in the first floor bunk room. These improvements aside, house enabled a fun vacation gathering!

Enough room for 9 kids and 6 adults. Cute and charming. Huge side yard for wiffleball, soccer, bubbles, firepit, tree swing. 2 minute drive to beach parking lot. Kids loved the hikes up and down the bluff to the beach with great views to the south. Michelle was very responsive to my questions. Overall good price for sq footage, yard size, and proximity to beach, Frankfurt, and Arcadia. Recommend if you are down to earth and don't need gold finishes to have fun with your family and friends : )

House was perfect for our 3 family Michigan reunion. Spacious yard, 5 beautiful maple trees, swing, birdsong, ample socializing space indoors and front porch with trundle and rocking chair. Well equipped kitchen and household necessities. Charm and comfort and the window A/C units kept us cool on the warmer days. Loved the old-fashioned parlor with TV. Games in cupboard. We had a wonderful time!!

We had a great time in a quaint house close to a bike trail. Would have liked to have known about plugging in the window unit AC into a different outlet in order to avoid shorting the fuse but other than that, once we got that straightened out, it was great. Communication with the host was excellent from the moment of booking to any questions we had while we were there. Would stay here again.

Beautiful

It was a very nice place for many of my family members to stay together and comfortably.

Nice big home with lots of space to spread out and a great kitchen too. Definitely an old house with lots of original charm and quirks to go along with it but was a great fit for our snowboarding trip. I imagine the location is amazing in the summer as the dunes are so close.

Lots of room for us to sleep and play Lovely area I think it would be fabulous in the summer. Frankfort was fun and skiing not to far

We had a great stay! We enjoyed a weekend in Elberta with our family of four and another family of four. Kids' ages ranged from 3-7. The house worked out great for two families, we had plenty of room (there were a few empty beds!) and the kids enjoyed the bunk bed options. House was clean and well-stocked with everything we needed, including toys and games. The large yard was great for outdoor play (we brought a soccer ball), happy hour, and fires. We enjoyed the close proximity to everything. Nearby we enjoyed taking a walk on Frankfort's beach, Five Shores Brewery in Beulah, and the Cabbage Shed in Elberta (could easily be walked to but it was less than a two-minute drive for us).

It was a perfect place for a mix of family and friends. Plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms! The kitchen was fully equipped and there was wonderful outside space! The place was also very attractive and clean. We were there during an early autumn cold spell and were grateful for the whole house heating system. Would definately stay there again!

Nice big house was plenty for our extended family of nine. The location is great. Super close to Elberta and Frankfort beaches. Make the trip up to sleeping Bear dunes if you stay here it's well worth the drive. What really stood out to me about this house where all the small thoughtful touches. Beach chairs camp chairs the fire pit set up with chairs they really have thought of everything and you really don't need to bring anything besides maybe some extra toilet paper and paper towels if you go through a lot like we did. I definitely recommend this listing

What a fun, perfectly picturesque house! Held 7 very happy adults in multiple rooms. Very easy walk to the Elberta dunes, which I highly recommend. Thanks for the great stay!

Great

This old house has many good features, room for several conversations to be going on at once. Elberta offers nearby restaurants & great coffee and bike / kyak rental facility only a block from this house. Access to Frankfort is easy & the whole package offered our family a nice retreat.

We enjoyed our stay here very much! A cute house with a lot of space. We will hopefully be back in the future! Thank you!

Good time was had by all. Even though the weather wasn't the best the house was great. Everyone enjoyed themselves and it was a great spot to spend with family.
