Although the weather didn’t cooperate, we enjoyed our stay at your place! It was centrally located to the other cities we'd plan to visit. With the weather, we found ourselves being inside more than normal. The living room furniture could use some attention. The queen bed was very nice. The shower needs some TLC too…hardly any water would come out at all.

It was a great little cabin on a pretty lake. We spent a lot of time ice skating on Little Platte Lake. Very quiet location and great mix of winter outdoors and cozy cabin life. Queen bed for my wife and I that shared a large bathroom with kids room (two double beds) on other side of cabin. It was very clean and everything was operational. Lots of kitchen utencils and good amount of spices as wrll. The location is ideal, just south of Leelanau and all its wonders. It was about 10 minutes south of Empire, and the bluff hike there is magnificent. We had dinner at local breweries/distilleries. It's close to Iron Fish distillery, St. Ambrose Cellars, and others. About 20 minutes South of Sleeping Bear too. Great place and great time. We'll definitely be back!

The property is very nicely updated, clean and has a great kitchen with all the spices and little things you need to cook but are to many to bring. It's very private and secluded. We had a great time.

Absolutely loved this little cottage on the lake! The home is very cozy and the view of the lake is so peaceful. I spent some time at night out on the ice under the moon and stars, complete silence and bliss. I will definitely come back!

Overall, we enjoyed our stay here. We came during off season and it was perfect for us because we liked the seclusion and privacy. The cabin had everything we needed in the kitchen and very nice fluffy bath towels. The shower pressure wasn't great and the shower/toilet layout in general is kind of awkward for the space but we knew that going into it with the pictures. The sunrises were beautiful to watch in the morning with a cup of coffee. Only improvements would be to the keypad deadbolt lock. The deadbolt sticks and can be difficult to lock & unlock. Also, I'd suggest hiding a spare set of keys somewhere on the property because the battery on the deadbolt died while we were out and we ended up having to crawl through a window accidentally left unlocked to get inside. The owner was very quick to respond to this issue via text message.

The cottage was clean, everything we needed was provided, and the setting is very quiet with a nice lake view. The location is a perfect home base for exploring the Sleeping Bear Dunes and the Leelanau Peninsula. Our stay was short, but we really enjoyed it!

Had a great stay on the Little Platte Lake. Very quiet. Pretty view. Nice open cottage with updated kitchen. More than enough room for 2 people. Right in the middle of everything we wanted to see and do. Would definitely stay there again.

Close to southern parts of Sleeping Bear, and easy drive (30 minutes) to the northern sections. Very quiet area, comfy beds, dark at night for great sleep. The cabin has the basics - but no microwave. Rowboat on property, though we didn’t get a chance to try it. Empire and Honor are closest towns and they are tiny! Drive a bit further to Frankfort or Glen Arbor for more options of food, coffee shops, breweries.

We enjoyed our stay in the little cottage on Little Platte Lake. Fitted out with what we need for a short stay, nice to not need to bring bedding and towels. We loved sitting on the deck looking out at the lake, ducks, geese, herons, beaver, Moon, stars, and Jupiter.
