Love it!!!

This is our second time staying at this location, and we really love it here. It's an easy drive to multiple locations, especially the beaches in Traverse City.Shirley and Ray are both amazing people, and we always enjoy getting to catch up with them each year when we go up north.The cabin comes stocked with all the things you would need in the kitchen, the beds are comfortable, and sitting on the back deck is an amazing place for watching birds.

Shirley and Ray were the best! Ray gave us great tips for the best spots to fish, eat and visit. The cottage was very clean and comfortable and located where there was easy access to everything we wanted to do. And, oh, the property was so beutiful and calming! We loved sitting outside in the morning and watching the birds and other critters. Great way to start the day! We highly recommend this cottage!

A wonderful piece of the Northwoods

Well-maintained and tastefully furnished with truly comfortable furniture and beds, surrounded by exquisite views and exceptional privacy. Absolutely no problems of any kind, with personable and helpful hosts. Slight road noise must be mentioned but did not detract measurably...the place is simply that nice!

Cozy cottage

We had a really nice getaway with our granddaughters.The only 2 things that I wish were included in the description would be.. that the water is well water. It was something we weren't prepared for. We just went and bought cases of water. The second thing would be that it has an air conditioning unit.. half the cottage was nice and cool but the bedrooms were very warm which made it hard to sleep.The house was completely equipped with anything and everything you could need. Alot of thought and personal touches were put into this cottage which made it feel like a home away from home.

Peaceful week near Interlochen and Sleeping Bear

We enjoyed a lovely relaxing week, and were grateful to have found a place that provided privacy and ease of access to the sights nearby. Check in was easy, with Ray providing some great recommendations as to where to go in the Leleenau.

Beautiful setting, cozy cabin

This property is everything mentioned in the listing and more. Sitting on the deck, watching birds at the feeder and looking out over the pond was so peaceful. The house was well stocked with basics. We especially enjoyed the gas fireplace during the cool evenings.

The outdoor space shines! The deck near the pond is just beautiful. House is comfy and has everything you would need. Furniture is dated but fine. Road noise is present but you soon get used to it.

Among Nature

This was the perfect place to relax. The property was on a pond with beautiful wildlife. Hummingbirds all over the place. One can relax just there and not go anywhere else. Nearby, however, are many places to enjoy. One of our favorites is Platte River Pointe. My personal favorite of the stay is seeing Brandi Carlile at nearby Kresge Auditorium. Amazing performance! I organized a successful tailgate for her biggest fans from our state. We loved our stay and would love to return to that same spot.

Amazing Spot!! Location, Comfort, Space and Scenery!!

We had such a GREAT time at the Cottage! What amazing hosts, we got so much detailed local information from Ray and Shirley made sure we were taken care of all week. The property is awesome and so much bigger than we anticipated. The pond is gorgeous and feeds into the Patte River, the house is completely stocked, 2 Bedrooms each with a Super Comfy Queen bed, Open concept living room/dining room/Kitchen (great for family living), full Laundry facillity in foyer, Board Games, sand toys, outdoor furniture, gas Grill, Firepit and so close to the National Park!! Eveything is within 15-20 min so the location is just perfect! Words can't even express how much we enjoyed this trip and the cottage was a huge part of it. We can't wait to come back~ I highly recommend this rental.

No WIFI, few TV channels worth watching. No fishing in spite of being on a public creek. Restaurants in area very short handed of help, closed on Mondays everywhere.

Beautiful Property

My wife and I just returned from a great week-long vacation here. The listing describes everything very accurately. The owners met us when we checked in and Ray spent over an hour asking what we liked to do and providing suggestions, complete with a map with notes that we were given to keep. The house is just as shown in the photos, but the property is even nicer in person! Loved all of the wildlife--birds, ducks, heron (egret?), and a doe and her fawn made numerous visits! Very relaxing walking the property or sitting by the pond or around a bonfire. There is some traffic noise since the house sits near the road (mostly when outside--inside is very quiet)), but we got used to it quickly and it turns into white noise and was mostly not noticed after the first hour or so. We will definitely be returning.

Shirley was awesome and met us at the property for check in. You are close to the road - trees block the view of the road, but there is some pretty steady road noise. That's made up for by the beautiful location. A great place for birders - saw a ton of species at the feeders on the deck, king fishers, green herons, and great blue herons in the pond - and more things when we hiked back in the prairie area beyond the yard. A nice short distance from Sleeping Bear, Frankfort, Empire - wonderful beaches, great hiking, and some really good food. The pictures are accurate - it is an older cabin without updates or new furniture - but that's exactly what we were expecting and we really enjoyed our stay. Thanks for sharing your place with us!

Peaceful neauty

We chose this location specifically for access to Interlochen Center for the Arts, Sleeping Bear Dunes National Park, and Frankfort. We love the area and always run out of time to do everything. This trip was for music. It was the perfect distance for dinner away from the venue, and a short drive to the venue. There was plenty of space on the rainy day to spread out, play games and have snacks (we always travel with groceries). The property has so much natural beauty with the lake like a mirror, wildflowers and birds. Owners are very nice and provide a well stocked home. Many kitchen appliances and utensils. Lots of board games. Grill. Nice deck furniture. Highly recommend.

Om vÀrden

Shirley Villeneuve Àr vÀrd

VĂ€rdens profilbild
As a hair-stylist and owner of my own Salon, "Shirley's Countryside Salon" located on the corner of US-31 and Indian Hill Road about a mile "West" of Honor, I've worked with my client's for many years and I know the pleasure they receive when they can look in the mirror and see the hair style that "we" created together. I also know the joy of living in this beautiful area of Michigan and participating with family and friends in many of the activities that this area has to offer, including golf, hiking, fly-fishing, hunting, bird-watching, canoeing, kayaking, down-hill skiing, cross-country skiing, swimming, sitting on the beach at Lake Michigan eating a dinner made over a beach fire while watching a beautiful sunset. This is my life and I want others to experience the same joy I do. I want to provide the opportunity for couples and families to experience fun activities together and reconnect with one-another in this gorgeous, unique, area.

Varför vÀrden valde detta boende

Whispering Pines Cottage, named from the "Whispering-Sound" that occurs when a soft summer breeze floats through the needles of the White Pines on the property. " Whispering Pines Cottage" is a cozy and comfortable retreat for stress-release relaxing and a perfect spot to venture forth into the surrounding play-ground of this area of North-West Michigan.
Because I feel as I do about seeing people of all ages enjoying themselves in activities that I also enjoy I wanted to provide a unique opportunity for guests at Whispering Pines to be able to "fly-fish" our "Mirror Pond" using barb-less hooks, artificial lures, and catch-and-release only. We will be glad to introduce you to this fun and relaxing sport.

Vad som gör detta boende unikt

Whispering Pines Cottage is located at the "hub" of this beautiful area, and just like the "hub" of a wheel a guest can head out to any of the surrounding destinations and reach them within a relatively short time that usually won't exceed 30 minutes.
A unique feature of this property is our Beautiful "Mirror Pond" with naturally reproducing brook trout with added rainbows that feed exclusively on the forage growing in the pond. We allow our guests to use catch and release, barbless artificial lures only.
We encourage fly-fishing and will be glad to supply instruction and equipment, if needed.
There is ample space, around the pond, for the novice or expert to practice their fly-fishing techniques over the pond for the resident trout.
The Blue-Ribbon Platte River, mid-sized, gin-clear, easy wading, easy fly-fishing, abuts our property and river entry is a five to ten minute walk, in waders, from the cottage.
The Platte River has spring and fall Steelhead Runs, Fall Coho Salmon run (the Platte River is the home of the beginnings of Salmon Fishing in the Great Lakes), and resident Brook, Rainbow, and Brown Trout available during the trout season.
This stretch of the river, putting in at Veteran's Memorial Park, is a delightful canoe or kayak trip where you can exit the river at multiple locations depending on how far you want to travel.
The mouth of the Platte River and Platte Bay, about 15 minutes from Whispering Pines, lend themselves to fun fishing spring and fall as well as beautiful places to walk the beach, have a bonfire, cook a meal, swim or just relax and enjoy the beauty of the area.
Our property and area are great places to visit and we want to help you to enjoy your stay with us.
