FISHING
Great fishing can be had right off your dock on Upper and Lower Herring Lake. Please catch and release, especially on Lower and Upper Herring Lakes. For fishermen who like to cast near Lake Michigan, both Frankfort and Elberta have fishing piers on Lake Betsie, which is essentially Frankfort Harbor. It is known for salmon, brown trout, steelhead, smallmouth bass, and catfish.
On calm days, locals like to fish from the north and south cement breakwater piers that reach way out into Lake Michigan.
The Frankfort Tackle Box on Main St has bait, tackle, licenses and great advice. For salmon, lake trout and steelhead charters, I recommend Power Trip or Tiny Bubbles.

10 / 10Eccezionale·ott 2025
This cottage is lovely and clean. We enjoyed sitting on the dock with our coffee/cocktails. It was windy while we were there, so we didn't go in the water. The lake is shallow for quite a way out and has a sand bottom. It is located a few minutes from downtown Frankfort. Beautiful location.
10 / 10Eccezionale·set 2025
The cottage had a great lake view and easy access to the lake with beautiful sunsets. The cottage was clean with a comfortable sofa and beds. Kitchen had what a short rental would need for food prep and dining. Walk in shower was perfect! Very peaceful, rarely any road noise and the stars at night were brilliant! Our hosts were the best- friendly and helpful! One of our best stays with Vrbo. Would definitely return.
