Long weekend getaway

My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay. It was a perfect fit for us. We liked the wooded lot and quiet location, yet it allowed easy access to all of the things we wanted to do. We visited Sleeping Bear Dunes at multiple locations to hike, beachcomb, and enjoy the Fall colors. Frankfurt and Empire were not far away. The cottage had all of our needs covered. We really enjoyed the fireplace. The property description is accurate and we highly recommend it.

Cool cabin

The owner of the property has done a complete update to this smallish "cabin" in a forest setting near Platte Lake. It has a very well equipped kitchen including coffee and a few basic condiments. A new washer and dryer also came in bery handy. Outside it feels like a wooded campsite away from the road. There's a propane grill, a fire pit and outdoor furniture. The location is near Crystal Lake, Sleeping Bear Dunes, and Frankfort, so there's lots to enjoy in the area. We enjoyed our stay.

Exactly what you are looking for.

This place is the perfect up north stay thats located close to a lot of amazing sights and fun cities. We felt secluded but not far from anything at the same time. Everything was clean, seemed very recently undated, and the owner was quick to communicate. 10/10 would definitely stay here again

Sleeping Bear Dunes Cabin

Clean, comfortable and quiet. We loved our stay in the woods in this well furnished and supplied cozy cabin. The location is ideal for exploring all that Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore offers. Would definitely stay here again.
