Betsie River Dream House

This comfortable, updated home is perched 10 feet from the Betsie River. It boasts a screen room for fresh air. There is also a 3 season room for relaxing and watching the river. Many folks canoeing down the river have exclaimed, "You have the best water frontage on this river!" With over 500 ft. of Betsie River frontage, feel free to choose your favorite swimming or fishing spot. A popular fishing hole is an easy cast from the grass. Sit at the river's edge in the sun, or in the shade from the trees. Enjoy an outdoor fire while watching the river.

Crystal Mountain resort is a two minute drive. Sleeping Bear Dunes is a 40 minute drive. Any questions, please call me 616-218-1301.

Perfect!
Beautiful home located on the river. Close to Crystal Mountain was the perfect retreat for our family! Home had everything you needed, and the host went out of their way to make sure they answered any of our questions and made the check in process so easy. We got 12 inches of snow while there and the host made sure the driveway was plowed every day! Absolutely loved our stay and Look forward to staying there again.

Great Weekend Away
We had a wonderful stay at this home. It was perfect for our 2 families. Close to Crystal for skiing and down the road from the distillery. We would come again in the winter or summer.

Highly Recommended
The listing pictures don't do this property justice! Well stocked, comfortable property with the feeling of seclusion but close to everything. The river access is better than expected and had salmon and trout waiting for us in the backyard. The owner's communication was great, check in and check out were simple with no crazy chores to do before we left. Can't recommend this place enough - it's the perfect base camp for Northern Michigan!

Great location to visit Frankfort/and quite retreat
Family of 6 enjoyed the very clean and comfortable home. The river had a great swimming hole and current to cool off when needed. Owner provided every need for a comfortable/ safe stay. Loved the visit to the Iron Fish distillery as well. Thank you Holly.

Quiet and Secluded
Loved the house and property! Well off the roadway. Very quiet with river (creek) below. Fire pit is a brief walk downstream. Doe and (2) fawns visited about every other day. Could have fished if we had brought the poles. Would definitely stay here again and recommend it to others. No complaints.
