We had a great time at your cottage and we truly can't wait to come back. We've rented other houses and cottages before and none have been the quality level of yours. The cleanliness and amenities are extremely appreciated. I'm sure we'll plan another fall trip this year!
Recommended for:Romantic getaway, adventure seekers, families with young children, families with teenagers, sightseeing, pet owners, age 55+, girls getaway.

We loved our stay at Little Platte Lake! The house was very clean and had everything that we needed. Our toddler and dog had a great time playing outside. The setting was beautiful. The owners provided an excellent description and were great with communication. The satellite tv and high-speed Internet access were very handy and welcome amenities. We can't wait to come back!

We had a wonderful stay at the home on Little Platte Lake. The house was very clean and comfortable, the setting was beautiful and the location was convenient to Lake Michigan. I don't think we saw a neighbor all week. The owners were extremely responsive and honest.
