We loved this place! So well decorated, CLEAN, practical, cozy and welcoming. We loved it! We loved it so much I even hate to bring this up but if you like a really firm mattress then this is for you! We had a bit of a hard time sleeping on the bed because it was so hard. Otherwise we loved the location and everything.

Our second stay at "The Oaks" was just as wonderful as the first! The host was easily accessible and available to contact. The home still appeared new and is by far the cleanliest rental we've ever stayed at. Property owner takes pride in her rental and ensures customers are comfortable and satisfied.

We enjoyed our stay at this nice home. Rooms had plenty of space and nicely decorated. Kitchen had everything you needed if you were going to cook (we did not as we are moms on vacation and went out to eat). We spent plenty of time in Frankenmuth and house was not too far from there. It was also nice to have a fire pit as we did take advantage of that. Only complaint is that if you are not used to softened water then plan on bringing some for drinking or for coffee. House does have a separate for water in the sink but you could still tell. We definately would stay here again.

We had a seamless check-in and we were very happy with the cleanliness of the house. The beds were very comfortable. The backyard is secluded and has a firepit and a comfortable patio set. We were lucky enough to see a lot of fireflies, a marmot, and a bunny in the back yard! The water must have high sulfer levels because we could certainly smell the sulfur in it on the first day. We didn't notice it much as our stay went on, so our noses acclimated. There is a reverse osmosis system to provide good drinking or cooking water. The location is centered perfectly for exploring Frankenmuth and the surrounding communities. I would certainly recommend staying in this cute little home.

Perfect little house!
My best friend and I met here for a girls weekend. The house is so cute - it looks brand new! It was so close to everything, spacious and easy to find.We especially loved that they thought to include so many things you might need, like fans in the bedrooms, plenty of towels & blankets, coffee supplies and a well-stocked kitchen. We were traveling just the two of us, but as moms we noticed & appreciated all of the thought they put into including items for families (step stool, kids plates/cups/silverware, toys & more). We would definitely stay here again!

Deer Widows Weekend
We have been coming up to the area for 20 years when we stumbled across Deer Widow’s weekend while in Frankenmuth many many years ago. Our daughter is now an adult and it is one of our favorite adventures.
The house was beautiful with an excellent location. Everything was perfect
Wonderful place. Cute, comfortable, clean! I give it a gold star!

Fall Ladies getaway
Myself and friends stayed here for a laidback weekend away. We were immediately impressed with the house and all the things that the owners thought of. While we did not have kids with us, we do have kids and were surprised to see all the extra things that were thought of fwith little ones in mind. Tje house was very clean and cofortable. Lots of blankets and cozy items around the house. Kitchen was stocked well, and we kept finding things we were happy and surprised that they were there. There was a water softener (or something) issue but we did not communicate it until the end of our stay, but Jennifer was very receptive to this information and it did not affect our enjoyment.

Fun at the Oaks
My family and I typically stay in hotels when we visit Frankenmuth/ Birch Run. With 2 small children we were needing something more with the comforts of home. The Oaks was the cleanest, nicest and most accomodatimg VRBO rental we've experienced. The host went above and beyond to ensure all the comforts of home were accessible and available. The home is beautifully renovated and furnished and we very much enjoyed our stay. We look forward to visiting again 🙂

Cozy & Convenient
Overall this location is great for a quick trip to Frankenmuth. The location was a straight, easy trip to downtown. The house has great charm, and everything you need for a short stay. It was well thought out and the owner definitely cares for their guests.
Only downside, is the water there had a very strong odor, residue, and feel. It made showering, hand washing, etc less than ideal. The owner did have a separate tap on the kitchen sink that was a nicer touch for use.
Bring your own drinking water.
