I stayed overnight at this inn. I stayed in their economy room with one queen bed. The room was clean but the room had seen better days. There were nail and screw holes in the walls that needed spackling and painting. The bed and furniture was not fancy but was functional. The staff was extremely attentive and polite and went... More

If you don't enjoy yourself here you have only yourself to blame. We stayed five nights just before Thanksgiving. It's off season in Frankfort at that time and we felt like we had the town and the Inn to ourselves. Got to know the staff on a first name basis and they made us feel at home and appreciated. We...

This is a superb bed & breakfast. I wanted a b&b for our honeymoon last year. However, I wanted rooms on the first floor because stairs are hard for me. This b&b is unusal that it has several rooms on the first floor. Each room is unique with individual decorations - all Victorian. Each room has a special bonus of... More

The room was a good value (off season) but this place was our second choice. A nice walk to the beach and a nice Asian fusion restaurant across the street. The website describes the Inn as Victorian but it's covered in plastic siding which does make one wonder what is really underneath it. The low point of the experience was... More

We had what was supposed to be one of the very best rooms. It was way over priced for what we got. The mattress needs to be updated, so do the love seats. The blinds were dusty, as was the decorative stove. The tub looked nice, but the water pressure was so low, that I decided not to wait 1/2... More

Oh Dear! I wish people would let me know they are unhappy when I can do something about it instead of waiting to get home then giving us a bad review. They left a sealed note at check out and I was getting my emails together to tell them they could have a free night in the winter by way... More

My husband and I wanted a little weekend get-away from the kids and decided to try the Betsie Bay Inn. We stayed in a mid-range room (queen, with a hot tub). It was lovely; private, clean and well decorated. The hot tub is in the bedroom, and there was a small sitting area and a view of the garden. The... More
