Stunning private vacation houses built on the high bluffs of Lake Michigan. The three large Upper Bluff homes offer spectacular lake views and sunsets from nearly every room, wrap around decks and dune fire pits. Additional rentals on the lower bluff for events and weddings are available. The preserve is 1 1/2 miles north of Frankfort and forty-five minutes to Traverse City. Many activities abound just outside your door. Come relax on the deck and watch eagles soaring overhead.


**Due to high water and erosion on Lake Michigan, it was recommended to close the stairs down the Bluff. If you wish to spend time on the beach, we recommend the Frankfort Public Beach or any of the public beaches on Crystal Lake. We hope to reopen the stairs as soon as mother nature allows us.**

"Walking just out the door to hike the bluff and spending evenings star gazing at the dune fire pit make it special. The staff at the Bluffs is also amazing, very accommodating and friendly and willing to go the extra mile to make guests comfortable. Lake Bluff Preserve is now a favorite Northern Michigan getaway for me!!" Jill, Michigan

"Wonderful views, very clean--would be great if you had a group to rent all three places!" Kris, Oak Park IL

"This house was perfect for my family's get together for my parents' 70th birthday. Plenty of space to sleep for 8 adults and a toddler...The view from the house was wonderful and there are a lot of beaches nearby with easier access. Would definitely stay here again!" Margaret, Traverse City MI
