    We had another great vacation staying here. As always, the house is clean, spacious, and has a beautiful view of the river. It is conveniently located for trips to the beaches, dunes, and trails.

    We really enjoyed our trip. We love the area and its proximity to several locations we were looking to visit. The house worked out and accommodated everyone we had on the trip. The only recommendation I would have is that the house, which has obviously had some upgrades, could be done a bit better in places. That said, we are already looking to book a return trip in the next two years for another family vacation. The biggest surprise to us was how awesome the available kayaks were. We ended up using them every single day, and the kids had so much fun with them.

    The property is wonderful - right on the Platte River near the small town of Honor. Very peaceful! The kitchen is well stocked, lots of towels, and paper goods (towels, toilet paper). Libby is a great host and responded quickly to our questions. We had 6 adults and 3 children and the accommodations were everything we needed. We will definitely rent this place again.

    What a wonderful house! The river was beautiful with lots of wildlife in the back yard! We did a long girls trip, hiking at sleeping bear dunes and a kayak trip ending right at the house. The access to kayaks was the best part! Close to traverse city for a day of winerys. Will definitly be plannig another trip here soon!

    We loved it so much this was our second year in a row. This house is perfect for our combined 4 family vacation and are already looking into next year. The location is perfect for keeping busy in town or venturing out to dunes, bluffs and beaches. The house is perfect for cozy campfire relaxing or canoeing up the river located directly in the backyard.

    The house is large, comfortable and well stocked. It was perfect for our family of 6 adults and 3 children eight and under. The setting is serene and beautiful. A couple of evenings when we weren't watching the sunset on a beach, the kids played in the river (with close adult supervision). Libby was a great host. We liked the house so much we've already booked for 2025.

    This is a wonderful place to stay. So close to the Platte River with plenty of wildlife and a serene setting. Lots of kayaks for our use, including safety water vests. Lots of parking and different outdoors seating areas for bonfires or reading. The cottage is well equipped with everything needed for a large family to stay a week. The AC in the bedrooms helped for comfortable sleeping at night. The remainder of the house was generally comfortable, but could be warm if the weather was more hot & humid. The owner was very responsive and easy to work with. Overall, we enjoyed our stay and have already booked again for next year.

    We’ve stayed here on our annual family vacation for a number of years. The grandchildren have used the river for swimming and kayaking. Six to eight kayaks are supplied with personal flotation vests. Sadly or you could say joyfully our family has grown with four of the grandchildren married with infants. Next year we must move to a home that can sleep 20, sorry Libby. We love the improvements. Continue improving the property, you have a well positioned home with easy access to all kinds of attractions. We love the Minnie golf in Benzonia, the Sleeping Bear Dunes, and Glenn Haven just to mention a few.
