We loved staying at the roadhouse and look forward to visiting this property again in the future. Even with three rentals on the property we felt like we had plenty of outdoor space and enjoyed the shared dock, kayaks and beach area. The property owners were helpful with anything we needed and we absolutely loved all of the extras they provide (indoor and outdoor games, beach toys, life jackets, laundry facilities, etc). We thoroughly enjoyed our stay on Platte Lake.

My family stayed for the week and loved every minute. The house was very clean upon our arrival. Loved that there were starter items at the house such as soap, paper towel, toilet paper, etc. The house is exactly as pictured on the website. The house is dated but adds charm. Each house on the property had plenty of yard space and individual fire pits. Water was warm and shallow. Beautiful views. Owner was quick to respond. Very close to a lot of activities. Definitely recommend checking out Sleeping Bear Dunes (bring a lot of water!!), Glen Haven Bay two miles from the Dunes, Cherry Bowl Drive-In, Crystal Lake and pyramid point. Easy day trips to Traverse city and Mackinac Island.

Perfect place to stay with our two-year-old twins. Nice sandy area at water for playing and lake is shallow with nice dock and great for small kids.

My family had a great stay in Honor! The location could not have been better...close to so many beaches and adorable towns! We found a different location every day to explore. And, when we needed a minute to relax, staying at the cabin and playing in the lake was equally fun for our kiddos. The property/lake front was shared, but each cabin had a spot to call their own, including our own fire pit. The cabin was small - which we knew going in - but it met every need for us. The owners were friendly and helpful. As a bonus, the basement in the main house had laundry and beach toys/chairs/etc. available to us. I wouldn't hesitate to return, but my growing family may need to rent the big house :)

Very nice place we spent so much time on the lake!

It was a quaint little cabin, perfect for a small family that offers many fun activities.

Very clean, just the right size great Platte Lake never fails to satisfy Entire experience was outstanding!

The cottage was as described-a cozy get-away on Platte Lake, perfect for a couple. The kitchen was well-equipped, with enough pots and pans for meal prep. The location was perfect, with a grocery store in Honor only a few miles away, and Lake Michigan less that 10 minutes drive away. The owner was responsive to inquiries, and the whole experience is 5-star rated.

cute, clean and perfect lake front stay

We had a great stay at the road house. Lake access and small sandy beach front on property. The water stays very shallow for awhile which was great for our toddler. There were kayaks on the property to use as well as firewood for our camp fire. The basement of the main house has laundry for guests as well as sand toys, lawn toys, and board games. The location was great. You are a short drive to the town on Empire to go see some huge dunes. Thanks for the great stay!

This is exactly what we were looking for! The cabin worked great and we were so happy to be so close to the water. Amazing time at the location as well as easy accessibility to our other destinations like Sleeping Bear.

The property is owned by a family so the operations are catered towards the guest. Check in/out is seemless as it mostly works through texting. And anything requested is provided. The property itself is pretty amazing hence the title, it's dated but that's what gives it is charm. The pictures in on the site are identical to what you get. We had an opportunity to look over the whole property and I would highly suggest if you have 15-20 family members, rent the entire property; beach house, roadhouse, bighouse. Second greatest thing about the cabin is the location, it's 25 min north of Frankfort and 25 minutes south of Glen arbor. The dunes climb and Peirce stocking is about 15-20 north of the property. Lastly the Platt river connects to the lakefront of the property for kayak, canoe, and tube rides. The mouth of the Platt opens into lake Michigan where there's a natural lazy river and shallow beach for littles to play(our kids are 7-2).

Property was great and check-in & communication were super easy. Exactly the kind of experience you want when getting away for a few days.

Our goal was to keep away from the crowd and have a more custom experience. In the current climate, having our own kitchenette, shower, living room area, dining area and of course bedroom meant that we could go in and out as we pleased. We had our own grill with propane, a fire pit, and the distance to the water was right down a sidewalk path. We enjoyed the sunset on the water, the owners were right there to help us when we got locked out, we had A/C and fans, fresh towels and linens, and it felt truly like being at grandma's cabin. The location was hands down one of the greatest benefits to the stay: we were just a 15 minute drive from Frankfort, Sleeping Bear Dunes, Lake Michigan National Lakeshore, and plenty of tubing, kayaking and canoeing stops. The Roadhouse gave us the opportunity to get away without feeling totally isolated, and we really loved the family that were on-site. All in all, this was truly a choose your own adventure spot, which is just what we wanted.
