Perfect and Peaceful Cottage!
We were so happy with this cute little cottage and we had a perfect and peaceful stay. We’ll definitely be back. The cottage was very clean, which is the most important thing to us, and nicely maintained. It was also well stocked with supplies and kitchen equipment. Its location is ideal for lake activities, Sleeping Bear Dunes, Glen Arbor and other beautiful and nearby destinations. Amy is a friendly, kind and responsive host. From before we even booked the cottage, all the way through to the end of our stay, she quickly answered all our questions. She has a gem of a place here and we were thankful we were able to rent it for our family reunion on Platte Lake this summer.

Wonderful Vacation Week
We had a "girls' trip" here for a week with my mom, aunt, and cousin, and we had an amazing time! The cabin was VERY cozy (as described), but it met all of our needs. It was clean and beautifully furnished inside. The window in the living room looks right on the lake. We really enjoyed the dock, lake, and fire pit just steps away from the cabin. The location is perfect for going to all of our favorite spots in the area, including Beulah and Sleeping Bear Dunes. All of our neighbors were very kind and friendly. We highly recommend it!

Big Platte Perfection
What a gem on Big Platte Lake! We chose this property for its location on Big Platte but also near the Platte & Betsie Rivers for fishing. Great location! The Cabbage House has all the warmth and charm of a decades old cottage without the rusty & dusty kitsch. Tastefully modernized for a sense of calm, not clutter. Everything was very clean and amenities provided as listed. This cottage offers a beautiful view of the lake from the sitting room window! Plenty of frontage to enjoy w/neighboring cottages & guests. So much to see & do in & around this area! Perfect location for all of it. Ours friends joined us for part of the time. We were cozy in the space but still comfortable. Great communication from the owner! Couldn’t ask for better. Great memories made! Thank you!

Thanks Nancy! Haven't had an issue yet with the breakers so thanks for the heads up. These older cottages don't have a huge amount of power going to them so running a blow dryer while AC unit, coffee pot and fan are going can sometimes cause outages.

Beautiful!
We had an absolutely lovely time at this beautiful cabin. The only thing we wish we had understood before coming was that we had to share the beach with other families. The other families were extremely rude to our family, but we were able to go to other beaches in the area and still have lots and lots of fun. We wish that we had understood this prior to coming; however, we still enjoyed the beautiful cabin and the wonderful amenities and the gorgeous areas nearby. We hope to return and have another stay. Now that we understand that there are other families in the cabins nearby, hopefully they will be kinder next time we stay.

Thanks Emily! So sorry to hear about the rude guests. That is unfortunately a rare occurrence. I wish you could have had a more friendly experience with the other renters as interactions are typically kind. Some guests have even stayed in contact with those they've met at the cottages! Hopefully you'll have better "neighbors" the next time around. Would love to have you again.

House was very very clean and had some great updates. Our young kids loved the water the bunk beds and interacting with the other kids that share the property. For a smaller cabin it was laid out nicely and worked great for a family of 4.

Platte Lake Get Away
We very much enjoyed staying in this cottage. It was very clean and the decor was beautiful. Most of the time it was just the two of us. Some friends came up for a couple of nights and they were able to use the bunkbeds. We loved the atmosphere of the small community of cottages. We met a lot of friendly vacationers. We used our bbq pit, the shared firepit and found many activities to fill our week. We went to Traverse City to sail on the bay, canoed on the Platte River, visited Sleeping Bear Dunes and hung out on Lake Michigan. We found great restaurants in Frankfort, Traverse City, Honor, Buelah, and Elberta. All of these towns were close by. Communication with our host was great, she was quick to text back with any questions we had. We look forward to coming back. Jill

Family trip to Bear Dunes
We spent a week here while exploring the bear dunes and other areas up north. It was a nice central location for making our day trips. The cabin is brand new inside and very nice! There are a lot of close neighbors, so it is not a quiet or private place to stay at all. With that said, the permanent neighbors are really nice and we enjoyed talking with them. Also the bunk beds are in the common living space, so if traveling with kids keep that in mind. Our kids loved staying there and playing in the sand and water! The lake is shallow enough for little kids to swim all the way out to the end of the dock while still being able to touch, which is fantastic. We enjoyed our stay!

Quiet Platte Lake
Platte Lake is perfect for kayakers. This cottage is located at the far end of the lake making the paddle to Lake Michigan challenging but not impossible. The property was quiet and neighbors are friendly. The location made it easy to reach the nearby towns and trails.

Wonderful Summer Vacation
We had an amazing time on the lake and in the Sleeping Sand Dunes area. This cabin and the peaceful lake were relaxing and perfect area to swim for our 7 and 9 year old! Beautiful sunsets, plenty in the area to explore! The cabin was clean and stocked with everything we needed to enjoy our stay.

Peaceful getaway
The cabin was exactly as I had anticipated. The location was wonderful. The beach was sandy and I particularly enjoyed the wooden swing by the lake. The bathroom/shower were small, but I knew that ahead of time and it worked well. I had to contact the owner about an issue with the cabin and she responded immediately and it was fixed quickly. Overall a pleasant experience.

Nice for the price
Overall it is a nice place to stay for the price and manageable for a family of 4. As others mentioned the shower is tiny for anyone over 5ft, but manageableand parking is VERY limited. The place could use a deep cleaning (cobwebs, dead bugs in the lights and around window sills, dirt in nooks and crannies). Comfy beds and fans kept us cool. The lake is perfect for small children as it is shallow quite a ways out. I would have liked welcome info with info (I.e. is firewood for all? Garbage day? Where trash goes? Etc). The only check in information we were given was key was on the table and check out info was to leave the door unlocked and key on the table.

Very Tiny cabin
Many up dates needed be done. Mold on shower curtain in a bathroom that is too small for an average adult to use comfortably. No area to store extra suitcases & packages except on the bunk beds . Reminded us of 1950"s decor. Posh price at a budget hotel.

Great location!
The location for this cottage is perfect. It's close to everything, from restaurants to Lake Michigan to Traverse City and Leland. The size is good for two people, but would be tight for more. The kitchen was nicely furnished and there was a good TV (we didn't watch) and wifi, which kept going off and on, but guessing that's a location issue. Overall the stay was okay. The down side was that the cottage is tired and pretty dark inside. Most importantly, it needs a really thorough cleaning, including the carpet. While we have owned and stayed in cottages before, there is something about walking into one that has been obviously cleaned well and aired out. If done well, it would make a huge difference in the comfort level of this cottage, and it would have gotten a higher overall rating from us.

Platte Lake Paradise
We had everything we needed for our stay at the cottage. You'll enjoy playing catch and corn hole down the center between the cottages, and of course, beautiful Big Platte Lake. The cottage's location is central to almost everything you could possibly want to do in northwestern Michigan. Our favorites include the Cherry Bowl, Beedazzled, Gwen Frostic's studio, Interlochen, Sleeping Bear Dunes (Pierce Stocking Drive) and Jackleen's Jem's, Crystal Mountain alpine slide, and Crystal Falls Mini Golf and Ice Cream shop. Thanks for sharing your cottage with us Mark and Elisha!

My first booking on VRBO turned out to be a positive experience. Communication with Chris was excellent. The location was perfect for us. Just two concerns: the use of the toilet was tough due to the lack of leg space. We got through the challenge. The full size mattresses both need to be replaced.

Great for Family or Group Vacations
The cabin was fine. It works very well if your friends or family rent an adjoining cabin. If it's not about the cabin but the location and convenience of a group staying close to each other this cabin is perfect. The owners of the cabins were available if needed and very friendly.

Nice Retreat
The location was perfect and the cabin was very nice. The perfect size for us (2 adults and 2 children). The lake was wonderful with the small beach right there and a dock to jump off of. The cabin had everything we needed to have a comfortable stay. Even without air conditioning, it remained cool with the windows open and fans going, even on the 90+ degree days. My only recommendation would be to have a top to bottom deep cleaning of the cabin. There were quite a few cobwebs and also dust bunnies. The bathroom had dried toothpaste on the wall and window in front of the sink. Overall, I would recommend this cabin and if we return to the area, would stay again!

Cabin stay
The cabin was great and the neighbors were all really nice. I'm not sure if I missed it on the listing but this is cabin 3 of 6 on the property. It didnt bother us but it might some others. Only 2 things bothered us. The floors slope badly in both sides of the cabin so elderly folks or people with issues balancing may have trouble. Additionally my son dropped a toy in the bunch room and when. I pulled it out I found a mass of cob webs. Other than that a great stay.

What a wonderful cozy cottage on Platte Lake!
The two of us (1 from AZ & 1 from the Netherlands) loved our week at this cottage on the lake. The photos shown & the descriptions on the website are exactly what is there. The cottage has everything and the location couldn’t be better. During our stay we went to the Sleeping Bear Dunes by Empire & Glen Arbor. We shopped the Saturday morning Farmer’s Market at Frankfort. We enjoyed seeing the Betsie Lighthouse, & one day climbing all the stairs at the Arcadia Overlook on M22 south of Elberta to see the spectacular views of the coastline. There are quite a few very good restaurants nearby (Cherry Hut is one) but we really enjoyed a great planked whitefish dinner in Beulah at the Cold Creek Inn & also some excellent sandwiches one afternoon at Joe’s Friendly Tavern in Empire. We did make use of our own kitchen on a couple days! We really enjoyed sitting on the wooden swing at sunset. We would definitely recommend this cottage.

Clean and comfortable cabin for my family!
We stayed at this cabin for the week of 4th of July, 2018. We found the cabin to be very comfortable and clean. The owners did a great job of anticipating our vacation needs by supplying all the things you tend to forget to bring on a vacation such as towels, kitchen items, etc. The cabin was perfectly clean when we arrived and even had great internet service, provided for free. The surrounding area was a perfect place for kids as the lot the cabin sits on has it's own dock and clean, shallow water for kids to play in. Most of the neighbors in the area are owners of the properties so the place is clean and quiet and everyone is very nice. There are several stores a short drive from the cabin so you can really relax and enjoy the cool breeze from the lake. Thank you Chris for providing a great place for us to spend our 4th of July vacation this year!
