We loved this older cabin. The screened in porch let us let the air into the rest of house. The beds and furniture were comfy. The cabin is close to Beautiful Crystal Lake… we enjoyed a day at the beach. Plenty of fun in Frankfort too.

Overall, I was disappointed with our rental. The pictures on the internet are not accurate. When I entered the cabin , I immediately smelled the mold… very musky smell. It was dark inside and with lots of cobwebs in the windows. The area was close to activity but cabin needs a redo and good cleaning. I would not return to this property

Great location, close to lake, cozy&comfortable

The first time I stayed at Park Vogel Cottage was in August of 2015 and nothing has changed except maybe a few pieces of furniture. Nine years later, it is beyond time for an update. A new mattress, blankets and pillows would be a great start. Window shades that work, fixing the leaky faucets, a new coffee maker and some additional kitchen tools would be nice—please add a vegetable peeler! The best part of the cottage is the screened in porch—which unfortunately was filthy when we arrived making it unusable. Many phone calls and SMS messages were required to get it cleaned two days after our arrival. If I did not have friends with a large comfortable cottage a quarter mile down the road, I would not stay here again. I do like the location, we discovered a great walk to Lake Michigan on this trip.

The smell of musty is overwhelming. Mice poop in the cupboards and cobwebs throughout. Fan running when we arrived as well as charcoal bags throughout rental to try and hide smell. Would not stay there for half the price! Vacasa refunded the cleaning fee, but we did not allow them back in to clean as it would have taken hours and the musty smell would still be there. We asked to be relocated and no response on that request. They eventually refunded 10% of our fee as well as our cleaning fee. Their own policy states that if a customer wants to be moved to another rental and has a legitimate reason, they will move the customer. I asked as soon as we checked in and it was never acted on. Do not stay here, I have pictures that clearly show it theirs were photoshopped. Vacasa pulls you along by telling you they are working on resolving the issue, but management does not respond.

If you're looking for a small cozy cabin, you found it. Very well decorated inside with many nautical trinkets. Love the Huron Light-Ship. We stayed here, while competing in a sailing regatta at the Crystal Lake Yacht Club. Proximity was perfect, from distance to Lake Michigan, Crystal Lake, and downtown Frankfurt. Everything was within a few minutes of driving. We took day trips up to Glen Arbor, Fishtown, and Sleeping Bear Dunes. We also went tubing on the Platte River. Our family enjoyed the open ceiling of the cottage, and the ability to casually talk over the walls while laying in bed at night. I'd strongly suggest this place!

Flawless check-in!! If help was needed, it was a phonecall away! We booked this cabin almost a year in advance. We loved the secluded, in the woods, hunter/ fishing cabin vibe! Was well stocked with what we needed. No fish cleaning facilities at the cabin but one is located 3 miles away in Frankfort. Close to Crystal lake, Lake Michigan, Big Platte lake, and Betsie River. All around, a great place to stay! We hope to stay at this cabin again.
