Two lakes within walking distance! Open the many windows to appreciate the sounds of nature and the breeze. Downtown Frankfort is 10 minutes by car, and 20 minutes by bicycle.

The cottage sleeps 6 in beds: There is a king bed on the main floor, a double bed in a loft, and a pair of twin beds in a downstairs bedroom (with a 6’ ceiling and its own outside entrance).
