We spent most of our time on the gorgeous deck enjoying the view of Little Platte Lake. Colette is friendly and communicative, helping to make this trip one that we will cherish forever.

Jun 8, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Lake house heaven What a beautiful place to spend a week of relaxing and site seeing. This cottage is absolutely beautiful, comfortable, and thoughtfully equipped with all the amenities you didn’t even realize you needed. It was the perfect location to spend time on a quiet and scenic lake or close to so many must see attractions like beaches and dunes and quaint towns with fun shops. Collette has the cottage decorated straight out of a magnolia magazine. She also had Michigan cherry scones (which were perfect with my morning coffee) as well as special mini coffee samplers and a bottle of wine waiting for our arrival. And then there are the bathrooms! I wish I could have moved those adorable bathrooms to Ohio with me. I wish I could just move in and live there, it is so warm and inviting. I’m going to miss that morning coffee on the patio or dock staring at the incredible view. I can’t say enough to describe the wonderful experience we had. Hands down, the best VRBO I’ve ever been to. Do yourself a favor and rent this place, you will be so happy! ##### kymberly p. Stayed 6 nights in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Michelle N. Jul 6, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Perfect! Everything about the home and the lake is just perfect. The home has been thoughtfully appointed with all the necessities (plus so many extra touches) you need for the week. We spent a few days on the quiet lake enjoying kayaking, fishing, playing bags and just relaxing. So peaceful at night, sitting on the back porch with the gas fireplace enjoying the stars and quiet (with the occasional loon). Great location for day trips to Frankfort, Elberta Beach, Glen Arbor, Sleeping Bear Dunes, and wineries on Leelanau Peninsula. Hated to leave but plan to be back again!! Thank you for sharing your beautiful home! ##### Michelle N.
