Guest comments

Walter,

I wanted to send you a note and let let you know that the Snow family had a terrific time last week at Platte Lake.

You have a beautiful home and it was perfect for what we needed. It was an ideal location for us to get to all the destination spots we were wanting to get to. The deck was a popular place to be all week (when not enjoying kayak trips on the beautiful river. Our boys loved hopping on their bikes for trips to the Trading Post.

All of us left with memories that will be cherished forever. In fact, as we were getting ready to leave, my parents were already talking about 'next year'.

So, if you do make the house available next summer, we may be interested in visiting again.

Thanks again for sharing your lake house with us and please feel free to contact me with any questions and also to confirm when you we should expect deposit funds to be returned.

70.3 Reasons to come to Platte Lake

We came to Honor Michigan because our son was competing in the Ironman competition in nearby Frankfort. Our stay in this home was spectacular! From it’s beautiful location on Platte Lake, with breathtaking sunsets, spaciousness, cleanliness and wonderful amenities, it did not disappoint! Our sincere thanks and appreciation to Walter, the home owner, who was easy to communicate with regarding check-in and other need to knows about our stay! Everything was absolutely perfect!

5 day getaway

My wife and friends have not been to the Sand Dunes and Leelanau area. We were looking for somewhere central to the area. The house in Honor, MI was just what we needed. The property is well maintained with plenty of room for our 7 adults. The kitchen was clean and had everything you would need to prepare meals. The bedrooms were spacious and the beds were very comfortable. The only thing missing ,was there is only one tv, BUT HEY, your on Vacation and should be out doing things. I would definitely rent this place again if in the area.

Awesome location and lake view

Walter was wonderfully helpful and the house is magnificently located on the water.

Up North Retreat

We had a wonderful family trip with friends. It's a nestled in a beautiful wooded area right on Big Platte Lake. The water is beautiful and shallow way out so wonderful for little kids. You can watch beautiful sunsets from the dock. We rented a boat for the week and an amazing time fishing and boating on the lake. The location is absolutely the best - close to Empire Bluff, Sleeping Bear, Frankfort, Glen Arbor and Traverse city. The little town of Honor has all your necessities you need but it's a short trip to Traverse. The house was comfortable with all the basic necessities. It was fun to cook in the open floor plan kitchen and there was plenty of seating around the counter. It was has great views of the lake all around and room for kids to play!

Good getaway

Great for a getaway. Right on the lake. Beautiful location. Clean.

Very nice place to stay

Very nice place to get away nd family vacation

Wonderful week on Platte Lake

The house is comfortable, quiet and great for a large family or group. The views are beautiful. The two upstairs bedrooms with the balcony facing the lake were my favorite part. Waking in the morning and looking out at the trees and lake was very pleasant. Watched an eagle catch a fish just in front of the dock. Heard loons calling in the morning. We even had a baby fox make a short visit. And the stars at night were amazing.

Great Family Vacation!

We had a wonderful week at Platte Lake Hi-Day-Way. We had plenty of room for the whole family in the house and it had everything we needed. The yard was perfect for playing games and the lake was perfect for our kayaks, canoe, and paddle board. The knee-deep water provided a ton of fun for the kids! The location of the house is wonderful to explore the area; Sleeping Bear Dunes, Traverse City, Lake Michigan, etc. We enjoyed this beautiful retreat and we hope to visit again soon.

Family Trip House For Sure - Loved This Home

We visited this beautiful home with our children and grandchildren just last week (June 2023). I do believe we've found our "forever" vacation home! The location cannot be beat. If you want to shop, it's close by at any of the surrounding towns. We especially love visiting Frankfort, Glen Arbor and Leland. If you want to relax, walk out the back door and enjoy the huge, shaded deck or lounge on the deck by the water. Our grandchildren, ages six months to age 7, loved the water so, so much. It was a bit cool during our week but we were prepared and the kids still enjoyed the water, our kayaks, the evening bon fires, beautiful sunsets...I could go on and on. The home is just minutes from Peterson Beach which feels like your own personal beach with amazing views. Sleeping Bear Dunes, go to Sleeping Bear Point for spectacular first views. The Empire Bluff hike is also beautiful and not very long if you are looking for hikes for little ones. BoonDocks in Glen Arbor has great food as does Dinghy's in Frankfort. We literally ordered food from the Trading Post which is .2 miles away and walked to pick up our dinners every night. The owner, Walter, was so easy to work with and everything was just as described. Plenty of parking too as we had four vehicles and a boat trailer. Overall, we had 8 adults and 4 little ones. If you have the opportunity, whether you are seasoned visitor or someone looking for a new family adventure, book this home.

Great place to stay

Overall the place was good. Very close to dunes and lots of activities you can do. Would stay there again
