It was easy to communicate with host quickly and effectively. The rooms were clean. It was perfect for our group of nine women. People that slept upstairs said that there was a lot of road noise and it seemed busy for a Monday night. We had a great time and enjoyed Frankenmuth!

The house was FANTASTIC! The decor was terrific! Lots of fun details to look at/through. Each room was wonderful giving our family their own space and then wonderful family spaces for us to be together. Walking distance to the River Place shops and more on Main St. Vickie, the host, was easy to get in touch with and very responsive at all times. Will certainly want to stay here again if we head to Frakenmuth!

This home was located in such a great spot. It was so large the 4 adults and 1 child we stayed there with had a hard time deciding where to sleep! It has a guest/ game building next to it that we didn't even use but if we ever find more people to go with us will make use of it. The manager was quick to answer any and all questions I had even when I thought I may have been pestering. This place is a great value and there is no doubt in our minds that next time we go to Frankenmuth we will be staying here again!
