140 Lake Front on Big Platte Lake -Gorgeous New In 2016 Lakefront Home-Honor, Mi
Please consider enjoying our brand new home built in 2016. Our house is located on gorgeous Big Platte Lake on one acre of property and 140 feet of private lake front. The house features two bedrooms with king size beds and another bedroom with custom made bunks which sleep 5. The fully stocked kitchen opens to the living room and a beautiful stone fireplace. The deck which raps around the property is perfect for your morning coffee and a nice cocktail at night. The 140 foot dock houses a paddle board and two kayaks for guests to use. The beach is plenty with a hard bottom and a gradual walk in following a soft sand perfect for kids to play. Enjoy a fire in the fire pit at night with brand new Adirondack chairs and marshmallow sticks to enjoy by the fire. After a fun day by the water there is an outside shower to provide guests with the beauty of the outdoors while refreshing before a nice dinner.
The house is nicely located in the Sleeping Bear Dunes, steps from the infamous Platte River which provides endless fishing, a relaxing raft or a legendary tail gate. Beautiful trails in the area provide easy hikes, bike rides and nature views that all end at Lake Michigan for a perfect day of swimming, reading by the beach or open space for flying a kite. If you want to shop, Traverse City, Sutton's Bay, Glen Arbor and Leeland are all a short drives and provide fantastic food and shopping excursions. Crystal Mountain is just minutes away to provide guests with fantastic skiing opportunities in the winter, fine dining, waterpark and alpine slides. Check out their website for their outdoor concerts, skiing events, cross country trails and bike paths.
The cottage is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 2 bathrooms, and a balcony, and there's space to spread out with 3 bedrooms. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a fireplace, and a coffee maker.

Fun Lake House
Huge garage to play and party in with a bar and many games in the garage that is big enough for everyone. We were there in the springtime and the weather can sometimes not cooperate but with the big game area there is always something to do. The owner was very responsive. The area is a neat area with many attractions around for all ages.

Great place to stay in Sleeping Bear Dunes!
We really enjoyed our stay at the Hurley Hut. Great location, clean, and comfortable! Just a short drive to great hiking, biking, and exploring all the little towns in Leelanau County. The entire lower level is a play room for kids and adults. It kept us all entertained on the cold rainy days during our stay. Jeff was also very responsive to all our questions. We would definitely consider coming back maybe during warmer weather to be able to enjoy the lake to its fullest. I would highly recommend the Hurley Hut.

Platte Lake Bliss
The property was as described with the most unbelievable play/bar area in the garage (a kid's, small and big, paradise). Our family, having grown up on Platte Lake, enjoyed the accessibility to the river and the paddle board and kayaks and the reverse north side location. The owner was very accessible and responded quickly to any inquires. Totally enjoyed the stay.

Lovely home
We enjoyed our short stay, wish we could have gotten the full week. The beach area and fire pit are very nice, but take everything you need with you to avoid having to make the long walk(as advertised) back and forth to the house. Location to activities is pretty good. Huge garage with plenty of activities for all ages was very nice. Well equipped. Main drawback - 17 steps to reach living area.
