    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.

    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.

    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!!

    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.

    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.

    Stayed at the lake house for two nights while attending an event at nearby Frankfort. The house was perfect for our needs with 5 adults and two kids splitting 4 bedrooms. A nice sandy beach with a shallow lakefront was enormous fun for the kids and the back porch was great for the adults to relax and observe. No issues being comfortable in mid September with temps in the 80s. Homeowners were fantastically responsive by text for minor logistics questions. Highly recommend for a quiet house by the lake.

    This house did not disappoint. The view of the lake is perfect for both your morning cup of coffee, as well as your evening glass of wine. We rented the pantoon boat, and were able to tour the lake on it, as well as the kid kayaks, the adult kayaks, and the SUPs! They had ball and toys in the garage that kept our kids busy. Note that there is no washing machine or beach towels on site, but as long as you come prepared, this is not an issue. The beds were comfortable, and this was a great place to spend time with grandparents and kids for the week we stayed.

    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!

    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!
