About this property

Cavalier Cottage - PRIVATE WATERFRONT COTTAGE W/ HUGE DOCK AND 4 KAYAKS!

This is a very cute and charming lakefront cottage with lots of character! It's located right on Big Platte Lake in Honor, Michigan and includes the use of a large private dock and 4 kayaks! The water is clean, gorgeous, shallow, and sandy, which is great for families! There is also a fun lakefront bonfire ring at the property, which is perfect for bonfires and s'mores on the lake!


NEIGHBORHOOD:

The cottage has an incredible location! It is located Right on Platte Lake, a large all-sports lake located just south of Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore. Platte Lake is wonderfully shallow, clear, and sandy, so it great for kids and families! Sleeping Bear Dunes is located just a short drive from the cottage, as is Crystal Lake, the charming lake towns of Beulah and Frankfort, the Point Betsie Lighthouse on Lake Michigan and the famous Cherry Bowl Drive- in Theatre. There are a plethora of fun shops and great restaurants in the area. And, if bigger city entertainment and attractions are desired, downtown Traverse City is only about a 45-minute drive from the cottage.


THE SPACE:

Inside, the cottage features three bedrooms. One bedroom is on the first floor, one is on the second floor, and the third is detached from the house next to the detached garage, which also has a small refrigerator. The home has a lovely living room with a comfy queen sleeper sofa, chairs, and a great view of Platte Lake from large windows! The kitchen is stocked with a variety of appliances and cookware.

The home has 2 bathrooms. Again, one bathroom is on the main floor and the second is a private en suite bathroom for the large bedroom on the second floor. Both bathrooms are full bathrooms. (Note that the detached third bedroom does not have a bathroom attached to it.)

Note that the cottage has great high-speed Wi-Fi and a 32 in smart TV and DVD - so bring your Firestick! The cottage does not have central air conditioning currently, but there is a room air conditioner provided for the second floor bedroom. There is a second refrigerator in the shed for overflow use, where guests will find life jackets, folding chairs, children’s beach toys, and high chair.


PLEASE ALSO NOTE THE FOLLOWING:

1) Dogs: Up to 2 dogs are allowed. There is a $100 pet fee if bringing dogs.
2) Garage: The detached garage is not available for guest usage.
3) Detached Bedroom: The detached bedroom next to the garage does not have a bathroom attached to it. Guests staying in this bedroom must use one of the bathrooms in the main house.
4) Stairway: The stairway to the second floor does not have railing on one side of it. It may be hazardous for young children or elderly individuals.
5) Acceptable Behavior: Please note that the cottage is in a residential family area where the houses are quite close together. Guests must keep things relatively quiet accordingly. Yelling, loud music, barking dogs, profanity, vulgar language, and loud talking / laughing at night are all strictly prohibited. If you are looking for a place to party, please look elsewhere.
6) Exterior Cameras: Please note that there are exterior cameras at the property. (There are no interior cameras.)
