Park Place Guest House at Empire Beach
Vacation at the beach in this two bedroom, two bathroom 1900 sq. ft. house / cottage that partially overlooks Lake Michigan and South Bar Lake. Walk the tree lined sidewalk 600 ft to the Lake Michigan shore and play on the sand beach. Lake Michigan water level fluctuates every year. Visit Empire Michigan webcam for current lake conditions. There is extensive playground equipment at the beach. The Village of Empire which is seven miles south of Glen Arbor is home to the Sleeping Bear Dunes National Park Visitor Center. The Sleeping Bear Heritage Bike Trail winds through the woods and is paved from Empire to the 'Dune Climb' and continues into Glen Arbor. The trail has been extended north along M-22 to Bohemian Road.
From the rear bedroom window of Park Place Guest House view deer feeding in the nature preserve.
Within walking distance of one block to the east are the Post Office, Bank, Friendly's Tavern, the Bicycle and Surf Shop and Tiffany's Ice Cream Parlor. Two blocks to the east is the Public Library. Three blocks to the east is the gas station/convenience store and the Shipwreck Café. This is truly a unique location.
Park Place Guest House has the appearance of being one structure with Park Place Empire, but each is totally separate and has complete privacy from the other.
Because our Lake Michigan home is special to us, we request great care and consideration from our renters.

    Quiet end of season visit to one of my favorite places to hike. Property well maintained and perfect location. Beach walks, hikes and sunsets everyday. Owner was visiting for part of my stay and was delightful. He cares about this place.

    Great location, close to lots of interesting things to do and to a very nice beach. We have stayed in Empire before and really like the village.

    We enjoyed our short stay very much. Weather was too cold for swimming but there are very nice hikes nearby and you can see the waves on the beach from the property. On the last day we have a very nice beach walk. The owner was very responsive to our questions about the WiFi. Highly recommend!

    Great location and great house! The only downfall is that the fire pit is shared with the rental next door but there are fire pits on the beach that were awesome for bonfires.

    The location is excellent to access the quaint downtown and beach. The home was comfortable/cozy for our stay w 6 adults. Beds are comfortable too. You are sharing the outdoor ammenities with another VRBO family. Our experience was positive.
