Great location
It was great to have a nice front porch to sit on and a good-sized back yard for a fire. We walked 2 blocks to several wonderful restaurants.

Fishing trip
The home is very nice and is in a great location. The home is in the downtown area of Frankfort which is as you can walk to the boat launch and to the local shops.

Stay in Frankfort
The location was great as it was walking distance to downtown and the lake. The front porch was a great spot to hangout, eat, play games and relax. The property itself could use some updating. It would have also been nice to have some more bath towels as there were 5 of us staying for 3 nights.

Frankfort
Nice, large home. Plenty of space. Great neighborhood. Beautiful outdoor area and porch. At first, we were concerned about lack of dishwasher and laundry but both were non-factors for our stay. Our 6th visit to Frankfort and among our best. Our greatest distance from beach, so far, but beautiful home helped make it worth the walk.
