We had a fantastic stay at Harbor Lights during a difficult time. The condo was perfect in terms of space and comfort for our family gathering, with a great view of the beach right outside. The location was absolutely ideal for accessing the shoreline, making it easy for us to spend time together. Although we found the kitchen almost fully stocked, missing utensils like scissors and a spatula was a bit frustrating. Overall, it was a wonderful experience that met our needs well.

This hotel is a lovely spot, set right on the lake with beautiful sunset views. The rooms are spacious and well-furnished, making for a comfortable stay. The friendly staff, including Steve, were eager to accommodate our requests. However, I encountered some disappointment regarding the handicap accessibility options, which could be improved. Overall, it's a great place to enjoy Frankfort, but securing a reservation can be a challenge.

I had a wonderful stay at the resort with stunning lake views and spacious accommodations. The cleanliness and comfort of the rooms were impressive. However, I was disappointed with the motel-style rooms we saw, which didn’t match the price point. Overall, it's a great place to relax with beautiful surroundings.

Harbor Lights is a fantastic resort that feels like a home away from home. The rooms are spacious, clean, and very accommodating for families, especially with little ones. The location is perfect, just steps from the beach and the charming town of Frankfort. The staff is attentive and truly goes above and beyond to enhance your stay. If I had to pick at something, it would be the limited dining options nearby, but the overall experience made up for it.

The hotel has an amazing location with direct access to the sand beach, which we loved. Our suite was clean and had an acceptable bathroom for wheelchair access, but the shag carpet was a concern for being ADA compliant. Overall, we had a good time, despite the few issues with the carpet.
