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.

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.

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!

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.
