About this property
Platte Lake Waterfront Cottage with beach and swimming dock
Welcome to the Cabbage House! A blend of cabin and cottage :)
Enjoy 100-foot frontage on this all-sports lake with a shared fishing and swimming dock. The sandy beach and shallow water is perfect for kids to build sandcastles and swim. Watch the sunset from the lakeside swing or make smores by the fire pit, wood is available behind the private shed.
The Cabbage House includes a charcoal grill, outdoor table and chairs, Adirondack chairs (feel free to move to watch sunset or sit by the beach), along with a picnic table in the yard. For those rainy days, cozy up with a book from the shelf, play a game or browse movie options on the Smart TV. Bluetooth speaker also provided for pairing phone with music. Pack n Play available on request.
Don't miss these area attractions less than 30 minutes away:
-Cherry Bowl Drive-in Theater (call 231-325-3413 for movie info)
-Sleeping Bear Dunes National Park (lots of hiking and panoramic lake views)
-Downtown Frankfort (great beach, lighthouse, shopping and restaurants)
-Empire Lighthouse
-Crystal Mountain (golf, alpine slide, hiking and biking)
-Betsie Valley Trailway (beautiful 10 mile bike path from Beulah to Frankfort along Crystal and Betsie Lake)
-Riverside Canoe Trips (either rent or take your own kayak/canoe/tube down the Platte River into lake Michigan)
-St. Ambrose Cellars (taproom, live music and food trucks)
And with Traverse City only 40 minutes away, there's too much to do that you won't want to leave!

About the area
Honor
Located in Honor, this cottage is on the waterfront. While the natural beauty of Lake Michigan and Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore can be enjoyed by anyone, those looking for an activity can explore Crystal Mountain.
Make sure you get close to the area's animals with activities such as game walks and birdwatching.

Why they chose this property
Sleeping Bear Dunes is one of my favorite places in Michigan. The aqua blue water, miles of shoreline, and picturesque sunsets can't be beat! After visiting my friend's property over the years on Platte Lake, I was excited when this little spot came up for sale so that I too could provide a fun and relaxing space for friends and family. I also love to kitesurf and one of the best spots in Michigan is 8 minutes down the road!
