About this cottage rental

Welcome to Sandbar Shores on Big Platte Lake. This micro-resort is comprised of three cottages with direct beachfront access and enjoyment of Big Platte Lake. Big Platte Lake is nestled in the heart of the Sleeping Bear National Lakeshore area and is exceptionally shallow, warm and sandy. Each cottage is steps away from the lake and offers lovely lake views.

The Beach House Cottage is closest to the waterfront and has two bedrooms. One bedroom is outfitted with two full beds, the master bedroom consists of a queen bed and the living room has a pull out sofa. This cottage sleeps six people. There is a fully functional kitchen and one bathroom.

Each cottage is outfitted with a/c, heat, WiFi, Roku televisions, gas grills, linens, towels, pillows, and personal fire pits. The sandy beach lakefront is a shared area between all of the cottages so we request that visitors are limited and courtesy be given to the other quests while enjoying the amenities. We are not able to provide motorized water vehicles but you are welcome to bring yours along and tie up to one of the mooring bouys.

There are working laundry facilities located in the basement of the Main House. Guests from all three cottages have access to the laundry facilities in the Main House.

Whether you're looking to explore the dunes, waterways, hundreds of miles of hiking and biking trails, tour the wineries of M-22, or just admire the northern Michigan sunsets and scenery our cottages will not disappoint.

We had a wonderful time. This trip was a last minute booking, which Dan was very accommodating and helpful with. The location and size of this property was perfect for us. We went exploring: Sleeping Bear Dune Climb, Sleeping Bear Point Coast Guard Station, Point Betsie, Platte River Point, Peterson Beach, Empire Beach and lighthouse. All within a very reasonable drive of this cabin. The main house had 2 washer and dryers. There were plenty of board and yard games to choose from. We also enjoyed the kayaks available with this property. Platte lake was beyond beautiful and offered breathtaking sunsets! The kids (4 & 6) enjoyed jumping off the dock and swimming/walking around in the lake. The water was maybe waist deep on them and crystal clear. The house had everything we needed. We hope to do it again sometime! Thanks, Dan! The Hawkins (from Indiana)

House was not fully clean at time of checkin despite high cleaning fee. All the rest was ok.
