About this property
Park Place Empire Beach Best location in town
From the porch/deck of this exceptional 2200sq.ft. home, enjoy the spectacular Lake Michigan sunsets. Walk 600 ft. to the Lake Michigan shore and play on the magnificent sugar sand beach that connects 35 miles of Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore.
The back yard adjoins a nature preserve where deer, wild turkeys, fox and other wildlife are seen. The side yard rolls gently down to a mowed grass park and the edge of South Bar Lake, a 1 mile long lake just 200 ft. from the Michigan shoreline.
Within walking distance of one block to the east are the Post Office, Bank, Friendly's Tavern and Tiffany's Ice Cream Parlor. Two blocks to the east is the Public Library and Three blocks to the east is the gas station/ convenience store and Shipwreck Cafe. This is truly a unique location.
Because our Lake Michigan home is special to us, we request great care and consideration from our renters.

About the host
Hosted by Randall Parks
Although I rarely have the opportunity to meet our guests face to face, I enjoy getting to know you through phone calls, email and correspondence. I am a family man who is grateful to have found a little piece of heaven in Park Place which we enjoy sharing with others who appreciate and respect the home and the area.
Why they chose this property
The story including pictures about Park Place, it's acquisition and renovation, is chronicled in a notebook at the house. I was a counselor at Camp Leelanau in 1964-68 experiencing some of the best summers of my life. The seed had been planted to return to Leelanau County Michigan.
