A great cabin! We loved the privacy but not being too far from so many things. Sleeping Bear Dunes is a very easy drive along with so many beaches. Cabin was great to come back to in the evenings to watch kayakers float by and let the kids wade in the river.

Our family was looking for a cozy cottage for a get-together and this rental was just perfect! Just steps away from the Platte River, but also plenty to do and see nearby. Bill and Holly are excellent hosts and communicators. Already looking at our calendars for a possible return trip!

Had an amazing stay! We saw deer walking the icy Platte River every morning. Cabin was cozy with a beautiful snowy backdrop. Also enjoyed Beulah’s Winterfest, sunsets by the frozen Frankfort Pier, and Northern lights at the mouth of Platte River!

This is a wonderful place to stay. Very nice cabin right on the Platte River. Location was great close to Lake Michigan beaches, a short drive to Traverse City and Sleeping Bear Dunes. We would stay again if we vacation in that area again.

As usual, cabin was comfortable and welcoming. River was high and moving very fast due to all the previous rain. Mattresses felt like they were new as was the refrigerator. Great time, see you in the Fall.
