Platte Lake Waterfront Cottage with beach and swimming dock

Welcome to the Cabbage House! A blend of cabin and cottage :)

Enjoy 100-foot frontage on this all-sports lake with a shared fishing and swimming dock. The sandy beach and shallow water is perfect for kids to build sandcastles and swim. Watch the sunset from the lakeside swing or make smores by the fire pit, wood is available behind the private shed.

The Cabbage House includes a charcoal grill, outdoor table and chairs, Adirondack chairs (feel free to move to watch sunset or sit by the beach), along with a picnic table in the yard. For those rainy days, cozy up with a book from the shelf, play a game or browse movie options on the Smart TV. Bluetooth speaker also provided for pairing phone with music. Pack n Play available on request.

Don't miss these area attractions less than 30 minutes away:
-Cherry Bowl Drive-in Theater (call 231-325-3413 for movie info)
-Sleeping Bear Dunes National Park (lots of hiking and panoramic lake views)
-Downtown Frankfort (great beach, lighthouse, shopping and restaurants)

-Crystal Mountain (golf, alpine slide, hiking and biking)

-Riverside Canoe Trips (either rent or take your own kayak/canoe/tube down the Platte River into lake Michigan)
