This lake house fit our weekend perfectly! Packed with kitchen supplies, the sauna was fantastic, the sleeping arrangements were perfect for a houseful of women for a few nights. Those all pale in comparison to the view and the lake! What a nice quaint place. The owners responded quickly for questions and were very polite! One downfall and it was posted in the welcome binder, there is no washer due to drainage on the property. Laundering clothing requires a laundry mat but there is a dryer on premises for beach towels etc. That didn’t even apply when staying for only a few days! We didn’t even use the dryer! I highly recommend for a long weekend getaway!

Great location, quiet and peaceful, lots of trees. The back of the house faces north so the sun was never in our eyes while sitting out back and enjoying the weather. We even found 2 petoskey stones on the lakeshore. It was a wonderful place to stay for our first visit to Michigan.

As advertised - great view, cozy space, good communication

The owners were very easy to communicate with leading up to and during the stay. The cottage was clean and fit our group of 6 adults (friends) nicely.

Great space for our family gathering with 9 people. Teens and young adults loved the variety of outdoor games. The decor, color scheme, and furnishings were cohesive and calming. Beds were cozy. The new addition of the sauna was fantastic. The outdoor deck area and sandy beach were beautiful.

Lovely summer getaway

Amazing location for a summer stay, feet from a sandy beach on a beautiful lake. Great location with nearby activities and attractions. All the yard games and water toys you could want. Super easy check in and hosts were always reachable if needed. Would definitely return!

Lake time in Northern Michigan

We thoroughly enjoyed our time at this cottage. We were comfortable and had everything we needed. We also rented the pontoon which was a great way to go across the lake and visit my cousins on the north side of the lake! Communication with the owners was prompt and easy. We would not hesitate to rent here again.

Perfectly Charming

Such a wonderful property!!! The home is comfortable and has even we needed for our long weekend. The location is convenient for day trips to other cities/attractions. But the backyard was the high point of our trip. The view, fire pit, beach, dock, lake access… I would definitely recommend!!!

Very clean house, clean water

The house is nice and clean, everything seems new not like some rentals where wear and tear is seen. The water was clean and you could go out really far while still touching. Loved the kayaks and paddle boards.

These property had a great set up. It was clean and had everything we needed. Very comfortable. The yard and patio were nice for games, lounging and bonfires. There was even a sand beach very well kept. Great for family trips. Communicating with property managers was easy.

July at Platte Lake

This lovely cottage is even better than its pictures. Plenty of space to hang out inside with rainy day entertainment options. The outdoor space is perfect for coffee on the deck in the morning and dinners in the evening. There's enough room for yard games and for little ones running and chasing. Great beach, great swimming area. We'll be coming back next year!

Lakefront Family Fun!

My family from Arizona had a great time at the lakefront house on Big Platte Lake! The view and sunsets were incredible. The house was neat with everything needed (except laundry) and beds are super comfortable. The extra kids games (including a kids Pac-Man machine) use of a pontoon boat, water sporting toys like kayaks, wakeboards life jackets were all appreciated for the ultimate family escape "up north" Michigan! The shallow water and sandy beachfront are great for the kids as well!! Also, close proximity to Sleeping Bear Dunes, Frankfort Beach, The Cherry Pit and even Traverse City make this a perfect location to experience Pure Michigan! We'll be back next summer for more fun!!

Family Michigan trip

It was a great spot for our family trip - 4 adults and 4 kids. Kids absolutely LOVED the bunk room and the surprise of a Pac-Man game! Great spot right on the lake - the weather didn’t cooperate with us for swimming but nightly bonfires were a hit! Comfortable and clean. My fault for not realizing the listing stated only dryer and not washer and dryer but there is a nice laundromat not far. Great location for getting to sleeping bear dunes, we also kayaked down the platte river with riverside kayaks.
