Great place for a getaway
This property was everything we could have asked for and more. It has an awesome view right on the water. It is updated and clean. It was a great place to use as a home base while exploring Northern Michigan or just relaxing on the lake. We will likely be back next year.

Relaxing week!
Everything about this property is top notch! Everything we needed was on hand - from the well-stocked kitchen to detergent for the washing machine and dishwasher to a jar of toiletries in case we forgot something. The host quickly responded to all of our messages. We loved how private the location was and are already considering a return trip.

Perfect!
Everything about the home and the lake is just perfect. The home has been thoughtfully appointed with all the necessities (plus so many extra touches) you need for the week. We spent a few days on the quiet lake enjoying kayaking, fishing, playing bags and just relaxing. So peaceful at night, sitting on the back porch with the gas fireplace enjoying the stars and quiet (with the occasional loon). Great location for day trips to Frankfort, Elberta Beach, Glen Arbor, Sleeping Bear Dunes, and wineries on Leelanau Peninsula. Hated to leave but plan to be back again!! Thank you for sharing your beautiful home!

The BEST place on Little Platte Lake
We had a wonderful week staying in this cottage. It is absolutely beautiful and everything you might possibly need is provided. The cottage is immaculate, the kitchen is well equipped and the beds are so comfortable. We spent most of our time on the gorgeous deck enjoying the view of Little Platte Lake. Colette is friendly and communicative, helping to make this trip one that we will cherish forever. Thank you for sharing your beautiful home with us. We are already looking forward to next year!
