    We have been traveling as a family to this area for 40 years, but have never stayed on this lake before. The location was amazing, 10 minutes or less from all the places we wanted to go. The cabin was perfect for our group of 6, and had everything we needed. We utilized the kayaks to paddle to the inlet from Lake Michigan (about a 30 minute paddle) and my kids LOVED swimming and playing in the water. Jeff was very responsive to questions, and made sure that we had everything we needed. We have been searching for a regular place to stay, and I hope that we are able to return on an annual basis.

    Very nice house; great neighbors; having a full size washer/dryer was a great plus. Communication with the property manger was A+. Answered our questions almost immediately.

    Cute cottage on quiet lake. View is beautiful. Perfect for small family or 2 couples. Cottage has all the basic amenities needed for lake life. Small grassy area for fire pit, parking for 2-3 cars. Close to several towns for groceries & restaurants. Drive back to cottage is very secluded (2 track, very narrow). Nice dock, but no sandy beach area and no way to easily get into the lake as the shoreline is covered in big rocks. Row boat for fishing is nice. Needs a locking bin for trash cans, the racoons visit daily. Could use an additional storage space for food items brought. Downstairs bedroom could use a real door.

    We loved the place! It was very well maintained, right on the water with a great deck. The owners were friendly and helpful.

    This property is beautiful! The home was clean and cozy. We were close to all activities and went to Crystal Lake for swimming. Boating and fishing were fun on Lower Platte. We kayak to a small inlet to Lake Michigan. Avon all we enjoyed our stay.

    This beautiful cottage was well-kept and very clean. It’s a fun drive all the way down the one lane road to the cottage . You really don’t need to buy firewood , you can find some laying around the property for your fire. This three day vacation I took with my family before the kids went back to school. We had a blast, we sat on the dock fishing and even seen a friendly fox that came up to the campfire. Lake Michigan is about a 15 minute drive and they have a beautiful beach with swings for your family. I wish we could have stayed longer, we did not want to leave. Thanks again for the rental, hope to rent it again sometime in the future!!
