We had a wonderful week at Park Place with a glorious view of Empire Beach and South Bar Lake. The house was clean, comfortable, and the kitchen had what we needed. It was perfect for us and our two sons. The kids enjoyed coming and going on foot to the basketball court, beach and to town. We headed to the nearby Platte Point beach a few days to catch up with grandkids, and were able to get a lot of hiking in, too. Our 25-year-old even rented a bike, packed a lunch, and rode the Heritage Trail to Good Harbor and back. No matter what we did, we ended up back at Empire Beach for the sunset, a fire, and to play with grandkids at the playground. We were fortunate that the property owner, Randall, was in town and we were blessed to get to talk to him and his newly adopted dog.

Our family enjoyed our stay very much. You simply can't beat the location, just yards from a great public beach with two playgrounds for kids, fire pits, grills, basketball courts, and a smaller lake with dock. The village of Empire is right out your door, too, and Sleeping Bear park right north of you. You can watch the sunset nightly right from the deck. House was as described and fine for our needs. Beds were the worst part, fine but some of the more uncomfortable and old I've slept in in recent years. As a whole, we'd definitely return.

You cant beat the views from the deck-Lake Michigan beach, South Bar Lake and a marsh filled with beautiful birds. The house is adequate, but had a mild scent of musty which lingered. We had to bring our own sheets and towels. Enjoyed being able to walk to the beach and into quaint Empire.

Cannot wait to come back

This property is in the perfect location and even better than the pictures! We had a fabulous time and had plenty of room for the 7 of us

Will definitely return. This property is perfect for a stay in Empire.
