Property has a very unique features with landscape that includes both a river and a lake with great sunsets and foliage that attracts tons of butterflies and hummingbirds. Property has nice kayaks, canoe, row boat, dock for your pontoon, and a boat launch right next to the house. House and loft over garage are excellent for large groups and finishes are top notch. Host is excellent and on our stay quickly addressed issues from the previous tenant. Great stay and planning on coming back again.

Perfect Place
This home is beautiful. The decor is cute and charming.The kitchen is large and updated. Also has new appliances. The cottage had plenty of room for everyone in including a wheelchair. The views are beautiful. To have a lake and creek next to the cottage was great. There are butterfly bushes that line both sides of the property. The most butterflies I have ever seen. There were plenty of canoes and kayaks. Kayaking a cross the lake to Lake Michigan is a must. Absolutely beautiful. The amenities are too numerous to list. This place has everything you need. We will definitely book this place again. Our host Mike is great and easy to work with. Like I said this place is perfect. We loved it and enjoyed our week. 9-13 to 9-24-22.

Fall Family Gathering
What a find! I feel like we won the lottery finding A River Runs Through It on Lower Herring Lake near Frankfort, MI. The house, loft and recent upgrades were amazing! The owner was very responsive and has removable ramps to make the house wheelchair accessible. The views of the lake, with its own private beach the sounds of the river and surrounding wildlife were exactly what we needed. Frankfort and other nearby towns offered a variety of options for eating out, shopping and exploring the trails. Modern conveniences surrounded by the wonder of nature. Something for everyone! A great place to make memories!
