My husband and I plan to go up north yearly for our anniversary and to celebrate his birthday. Last year we stayed a night at Harbor Lights Resort and my review was titled "Just OK". That review was based on the room we had. We stayed in the room because it was only for one night but I must say... More

We stayed here when visiting family in the area. We reserved a hotel room but upgraded to a one bedroom condo. The employees were very friendly and helpful. The condo was extremely clean and well kept. The pool area is great for kids. The rates were very reasonable as well. It snowed the morning we were leaving and the man... More

This resort is a time share plus a motel. We stayed in a motel room. Definately nothing extraordinary though I appreciated that it was very clean. Internet was a nice feature.The entrance was under a staircase. No fireplace like the resort advertises. No breakfast. There is a fine coffeemaker in the room. Of course Frankfort is a wonderful little town.

Came here in the slow season-borrowed a friends condo. Very friendly front desk staff. Gave lots of recommendations for local food options. Had a second floor waterfront condo, the view was stunning, especially at sunset. Nice hot tub/pool area. Looks well maintained, clean. Within walking distance to Main street. Elberta is a short drive away for a few more dining... More

I had a great experience this weekend with my wife! We couldn't have asked for a better place to stay. The room we had was soooo nice! I new the pictures looked nice, but I knew not to get excited because I've been let down before. When we walked in I was really surprised at how great it was. We... More

We enjoyed our stay this past weekend at this motel/resort. Marsha who booked the room for me was very pleasant and more so in person when I checked in. The room was clean and they were helpful in suggesting places to eat. It was very windy the evening we checked in so it was not so easy to view the... More

Our first visit to Frankfort and was greeted by a friendly and helpful gentleman at the front desk who gave us information on the local eateries. The hotel was very clean and comfortable. The weather was a bit chilly so we didn't spend much time outside enjoying the sandy beach but it did look very nice. Lots of nice shops... More

We recently headed North to enjoy the scenery and wine of Northern Michigan. Harbor Lights Resorts in Frankfort is located right on Lake Michigan and the setting is beautiful! Our room was very clean and spacious and the bed was very comfortable. The warm pool and hottub were very welcoming to weary travelers. The staff at the front desk were... More

The setting is beautiful. However, when my husband and I reserved a mini-suite we were told it was next to the city park and on the second floor. When entering the unit you do indeed go up a flight of stairs so that it is on the second floor when viewing it from the rear parking lot. However, when entering... More
