I’ve stayed at many Air BnBs over the years but I’ve never been more excited to write a review! Frank was a wonderful host. The home accommodated our four families seamlessly; cozy beds, plenty of seating and tableware… and a warm pool! We had 8 kiddos with us and they all loved (and basically never left) the game room. Our smallest ones enjoyed the swings and sandbox outside. We gathered around the fire pit a nighttime… eating s’mores and enjoying deep belly-laughs! Frank was amazing and super responsive - helping us navigate a few tricky situations, keeping our experience wonderful and on track. We are already planning the next “annual” trip at what now feels like home away from home.

We truly loved our stay at this Airbnb in the beautiful village of Northport! The location is fantastic — super short walk to the marina, restaurants, and shops. This house has a great layout for comfort and privacy. With 4 floors of bedrooms, it’s perfect for families or groups, giving everyone their own space. The beds were very comfortable, with bedside lamps, convenient places to charge phones, and plenty of room to hang clothes and store luggage. The living area was great for hanging out together…cozy sofas, open layout with the dining area and kitchen. Kitchen is wonderfully equipped! So simple and easy to prepare meals there. The large laundry room was also really great for easy clean up after beach days. There were so many little touches that made our stay extra comfortable — lots of hooks in the bathrooms, plenty of pillows and blankets, excellent appliances. Check-in/out were easy and the hosts were outstanding communicators from start to finish! Can’t wait to return!

The Northway was perfect for our group of 14. The house is beautiful (exactly as pictured), clean and is stocked with everything you need and then some (no need to bring items such as toilet paper, paper towels, dishwashing liquid, laundry detergent, pool towels, etc.)! We made use of all it had to offer and thoroughly enjoyed the pool, game room, pool table/shuffleboard and fire pit! We even stayed in and cooked one evening and found the kitchen to be stocked with all we needed to prepare our meal. The house is conveniently located 5-minutes or less from Meijer and about an hour from two areas we enjoyed visiting, Traverse City and Mackinac Island. Frank is an incredibly responsive host and I appreciated his willingness to answer all of my questions. 10/10 recommend and would definitely stay again (and again)! Thank you, Frank and Janae! :)

Frank was the best host. He was happy to host my rather large group of golfers. The house is fantastic. It offers so many things to do from video games to pool and shuffle pluck…Plus the house has an indoor pool. From Frank’s first welcome video to his follow up, the experience was phenomenal. I highly recommend you stay here for a golf or ski weekend.

Our group really enjoyed spending the weekend at Franks place! It was secluded, peaceful, and had tons of space for activities and games. The house itself was extremely comfortable and was accommodating for the amount of people we had staying. Also, it was very close to golf courses, grocery stores, and other restaurants in the Gaylord area. Thank you for a wonderful stay.

I stayed here with a group of 8 women for my birthday weekend, and it was perfect. The home had plenty of space for all of us to relax and unwind — it was peaceful, beautifully maintained, and exactly as described. But honestly, when you arrive in person, it’s even better. We loved how walkable the town was, with friendly locals and such a warm, welcoming vibe everywhere we went. One of the biggest highlights was the host, Frank. He was super responsive, gave amazing recommendations, and even helped me map out an itinerary when I was feeling overwhelmed with planning. He went far above and beyond — truly one of the best Airbnb hosts I’ve ever encountered. This place is also just a short walk from the water, which made it even more special. I would absolutely book this home again in a heartbeat. Highly, highly recommend!

This was the perfect place for a weekend getaway Up North with our two boys (7 and 9)! We loved the house/property, and the hot tub was the cherry on top. We'll be back for sure!

We were absolutely thrilled with our experience here. From the moment we arrived, it was clear there were no details missed. Frank has prepared this property very well and truly thought of everything from supplying a ton of kitchen items to having blankets on your way out to the bonfire pit. The property is beautifully designed and was impeccably clean. The pool was a huge hit with our friend group and we spent lots of time in it. Check in was a seamless process and Frank was quick to answer any questions that we had. The location was peaceful yet close to everything we wanted to do. We will certainly be staying here again if the opportunity arises.
