Charming Historic Home in the Heart of Frankenmuth
We had a relaxing stay at this charming historic house in Frankenmuth! The property was clean, thoughtfully maintained, and full of character. From the moment we arrived, we felt welcomed and at ease. The house perfectly blends historic charm with modern comforts, making it an ideal spot for a relaxing getaway.One of the best features is its prime location—most of Frankenmuth's iconic attractions, restaurants, and shops are just a short walk away. It was so convenient to stroll to Zehnder's, the Bavarian Inn, and the charming downtown boutiques without worrying about parking.Whether you're sipping coffee on the cozy porch or exploring the nearby sights, this property feels like a true home away from home. We highly recommend this rental to anyone looking for an authentic Frankenmuth experience.

Great experience
We had a great stay! The home was very accommodating for our family of 4 (2 kids under 3 years old). The house is very close to downtown and would have been walkable if it wasn’t too cold and snowy. We got a few inches of snow over night and the owner shoveled the snow on the steps, walkway, and driveway before we were awake! The home is in a safe neighborhood. We will stay here again if we visit Frankenmuth in the future!

Cute little early 1900's home
If you ever wanted to experience living in an early 1900's home this is for you. With a lot of original things the home was built with - windows, doors, door knobs, etc. it was quite a treat. On the downside the floors and doors were a little loud and the windows were frozen on the inside. All in all, I really liked it. It was great being to walk downtown.

Fall Weeken Getaway
The location is in a great spot. Not too far to walk to town and not in a crowded area. Everything was very good, but not exceptional. It did not feel very private. From the open stairs in the kitchenette one can easily hear the people downstairs. I wouldn’t consider staying for longer than a weekend.

Amazing stay :)
My boyfriend and I stayed for two nights and enjoyed every second of it! The house is obviously old but has been well maintained and upgraded where needed. We were a little skeptical about sleeping apartment style above the family who owns it, but we could barely ever hear them and there was a ton of privacy. Super close to downtown so we were able to walk everywhere and enjoy the fall weather! Thank you for having us, we’d definitely come back to stay again :)

Absolutely loved how quiet this beautiful home is. Thought of every detail, wonderful blackout blinds, chargers, kitchen. Bathroom was stunning. Loved the outdoor spaces on the balcony and the front porch. You could watch the horse carriages drive by in the evening.

Everything was great what a beautiful place. Our dog however couldn’t relax. There’s a yard but not fenced in so we had to but him on a lead. He didn’t like it. I would stay there again if it’s just my husband and I but not with a golden retriever

It was a nice place. We would have preferred to have a sink in the kitchenette but, it was a short stay. We couldn’t get the tv in the living room to connect to WI Fi but we watched the one in the bedroom and it worked good. Also I would suggest a blind or non sheer curtain on the bathroom door. It overall it was great. Make sure you realize it was a second floor rental. I didn’t see that but we did good. That was on me.

Very nice older home. Was on a quiet street with minimal traffic. The bathroom was an A ! The two bedrooms and sitting area were clean and beds were comfortable. Due to the weather being so great we were able to open the windows, however, the sills definitely need cleaning out. Anyway, about a 5 minute walk to town. If you can’t do or don’t like stairs, this may not be the place for you. I would stay here again.

Beautiful upstairs apartment one block from main street! I was able to walk everywhere that I wanted to go see. The only thing that would make it perfect would be an expanded kitchen or the use of a grill. Host was very quick with his responses.

NICE!!
This is a cozy little get away place that we enjoyed very much. Loved the kitchenette for morning coffee and late evening suppers of leftovers warmed in the microwave. We also enjoyed afternoon tea there each day of our stay. Evenings were spent in the lovely front room in front of the television watching retro tv programs...a favorite. The bedrooms and bath were very generous as well. The location is close to downtown and very walkable. We would enjoy staying there again. Thanks!!
