pre-holiday get-away
The location is perfect for hiking, kayaking, biking and just being outdoors. The house itself is comfortable, roomy and accommodated 4 adults and one dog quite comfortably. The view from the patio is striking, overlooking the Betsie and lots of wildlife especially in the spring with many birds nesting including trumpeter swans. Really nice. It was our 4th time staying here and we hope to return in the fall. It is very nice indeed!

Perfect winter getaway
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.

Elberta White Birch December 2023
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.

Comfortable Ranch
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.

White Birch
This is our 3rd stay at White Birch so we obviously like the place! The house is great. Roomy, well appointed and space to spread out and relax. The location is perfect also if you like to hike as it's located near quite a few trails both south and north on M22. Easy drives to Grand Traverse Bay, Traverse City and to Manistee. We are planning a return trip in the spring. Very enjoyable!
