Kid-friendly holiday rentals in The Great Lakes

Amazing restoration! Thank you Doug for sharing it with us. Wright fans will be extra impressed by the obvious effort put into every detail inside and out as well as the overall hospitability. And even if you're unfamiliar with Wright's work, a stay here will show you how engaging and inspiring houses can be.

stayed for quick little vacation with wife and baby, house was clean all the way around and located close to beach, shops and restaurants, would definitely stay here again

An absolutely beautiful stay! Many amenities to make it a comfortable stay! Beautifully decorated! Comfortable bed! Wonderful nights spent n the relaxing hot tub! Enjoyed a great fire pit one night too. Loved the private beach-so peaceful and relaxing! Looking forward to coming back!

I am still going to give a 5 star review regardless of a couple issues we had. First of all the house, amenities, and outside area are excellent and as described. The location feels very private and it is what we were looking for. We had 3 total issues during our stay, and 2/3 minimum were outside of the owner's control. During our drive in the Benton Harbor area had 60-70mph straight line winds that blew the outside furniture into the driveway. This storm also caused water to bypass a window and get the floor a bit dirty. Owners drove out early next morning and replaced outdoor furniture and I wiped up the water in the house. In the morning we realized the hot water was out. Owners immediately drove back out and investigated. They happened to have a property that was vacant at the time, and gave us access to it to drive there and shower. Overall communication and response was excellent. Owners made us whole, and I would recommend.

This place is the ultimate private romantic cottage with plenty to do on the water if you have a small family along as well.

What an absolute privilege to spend a couple of nights in a Frank Lloyd Wright home. No stone was left unturned in restoring, furnishing, and decorating the space to its original grandeur. The home is full of literature, original architectural plans and artwork that enhance the understanding of the design, and of the home's place within The Acres community. Marika is the most accommodating and gracious host. We are eternally grateful for this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

To find a place in the middle of Sheboygan and right on the beach was fantastic. We loved the location but everything about the house was really perfect. Easy, super clean, and comfortable in every way.

Hands down one of our favorite air bnb’s so far! We loved the pathway to the beach, felt like we were in Florida! Tracy gave us some really awesome recommendations to check out during our stay and on our way home we stopped at the dinosaur gardens about 20 mins away from the cottage and we were pleasantly surprise by the natures beauty there! Our 3 year old dinosaur loving boy said “wow” and “cool” about 100 times. The local restaurants near by have some amazing meals. We got the fish tacos at The Mountain (YUM) and the sweet potato’s fries are delicious at Brew Haus! The sense of style inside the cottage was so cute and inspiring. Really happy with our stay there :)

We had a great stay at Frank & Zoltan’s! So many thoughtful touches & we really enjoyed the pool and location. Very walkable to the falls, Clifton hill, etc. It was a very nice stay & we loved having what was a calm and serene getaway from the hustle and bustle of Niagara Falls. The bottle of wine was a nice touch! We appreciated their hospitality. Great hosts, would recommend

Maybe the best Airbnb attached to someone’s home that I’ve ever stayed in. Such a sweet set up. Very comfortable, clean, private. Thankful for the keurig for coffee and water bottles in the frig. My stay was short but very restful and waking up to have my morning coffee out on the deck and watch the river and the birds was the highlight of my stay. Mark was very good with communicating and gave clear instructions. The Airbnb was easy to find, even in the dark. Of course being attached to their home there was a bit of noise from the kids in the morning but that wasn’t until after 9am and didn’t bother me at all. I’d definitely stay again if I’m in the area!

Everything was squeaky clean and just as described. Would recommend 10/10!

Nice quiet neighborhood. This upstairs apartment was very clean and well stocked in bathroom and kitchen. Anything you'd need to cook meal and full coffee bar.

Really enjoyed this place! The bed was by far the most comfy air bnb bed I’ve slept in. Hosts were very responsive and flexible for an early check-in.

Words can hardly capture the magic of Cathy’s BnB in Wasaga. From the moment we pulled into the driveway, we knew we were about to experience something special. This isn’t just a place to stay — it’s a destination in itself, a beautifully curated space that feels like stepping into the pages of an artist’s journal. The first thing that struck us was the atmosphere — peaceful, welcoming, and infused with personality. Every inch of the property is meticulously thought out and bursting with creativity. You can feel Cathy’s heart in every detail. It’s clear that this isn’t just a business for her — it’s a lifelong passion project rooted in artistry and hospitality. Cathy’s background in the arts and event world shines through in the most delightful ways. If you’re looking for something more than just a rental, if you want to stay somewhere that feeds your soul as much as it rests your body, Cathy’s BnB is it. Thank you so much for our stay!

Lovely basement studio in very nice neighborhood. Easy drive to nearby neighborhoods or downtown area. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a comfortable stay!

Judi and Dave are simply amazing hosts. They are friendly, beautiful and i truly felt welcomed to their beautiful family oriented home. I will definitely go again, if im permitting. Thanks Judi and Dave for the warmth and hospitality. Esther!

We were so happy with Jeff's place. Exceptionally clean, quiet and perfect location for what we needed. We will definitely stay there again if the need arises. Could not have asked for a better experience.

Beach Bliss was a perfect get away with gorgeous views! The unit was very clean and inviting. Dandan was very attentive with any questions we may have had. I would highly recommend her place.

Mary was a very lovely host and was easy to contact and was quick to respond. You really couldn’t want anything more than this unit, you’re facing the lake, It’s quiet and has incredible sunrises. It’s really everything you need - especially for a couple. The kitchen was well equipped. Heat and AC, no problems. Everything was exceptionally clean!! I am really crazy about cleanliness and I can tell you I felt right at home here, I didn’t need to clean with my Clorox wipes to feel comfortable. You wouldn’t go wrong renting this unit. It was easy to get around from here we went to the tunnel of the trees, Mackinaw, Petoskey and Charlevoix and Harbor Springs. Lots of places to eat or you could stay at home and make dinner and use their grill. The grounds were very nice and very well kept! So what is my downside to this trip? Well the weather was too chilly, but I guess there’s no controlling that next time. I will know that this early in the season it’s a gamble on whether it will be wa

Lori’s place was amazing! The location was perfect, peaceful, yet centrally located near tons of things to do. Whether you want to explore or just head back to relax, it’s the ideal spot. I highly recommend taking your coffee out onto the balcony to enjoy the beautiful view, it was one of my favorite parts of the stay. Lori was incredibly responsive and checked in often to make sure I had everything I needed. I would 100% stay here again in a heartbeat!

We loved our stay! The listing was exceptionally clean and amenities were as described. We enjoyed the location and having a coffee shop and (delicious) burger joint in walkable distance was a great bonus! The view of the beach and water right off the private balcony was wonderful and having a heated pool/hot tub combo right on property made this an ideal booking for our family. We’d come back and would recommend to others!

This was our first time to Traverse City and we lucked up finding this condo on the beach/water! It was decorated so cute with modern/clean touches. Very easy to enter/leave with press-lock. The bed is SO comfortable. We were very appreciative of the 'Welcome' book with recommendations of things to do/places to see around Traverse. Would definitely book here again!

Beautiful spacious, comfortable and well equipped condo. Traffic noise was noticeable but lake view was pretty. Host was extremely responsive to unexpected issue in unit (shower door glass breakage). Overall highly recommend!

Really lovely place to stay, comfortable flat in a quiet area. Couple of minutes' walk to buses and the blue line to get into the City. Ewa was very communicative and helpful, the place was clean, and I appreciated the selection of snacks and tea on arrival. Would definitely stay again if I visit Chicago.
