The home is everything you see in the listing and more. It’s clear the host has gone to great lengths to ensure guests have everything they need and are comfortable for their stay. We had a large group and all felt like we had plenty of room to enjoy each other, cook, and eat while still having our own space to relax.

The entire home was clean and comfortable. There was a beautiful note and wine/snacks to welcome us. The kitchen had everything we needed. The house and yard were decorated with such wonderful taste that pre-wedding pictures were taken at the residence. Not to mention that is was within a comfortable walking distance to every place in downtown Frankenmuth. Would highly recommended!!
