Fall fishing trip
Great place to stay for our Fall fishing trip. Although we didn’t fish the river behind the cabin, we could have because there were plenty swimming by on their way upstream. We fished several other rivers in the area and used the cabin as our home base. It was a wonderful trip and we’ll be booking again !

Holly and Bill were very pleasant and helpful hosts. The cabin was great. Well stocked. Campfires by the river under the stars was incredible. Very comfortable matresses and pillows. We had a group of guys staying for a fishing trip. We cooked at the cabin and eeverything was great.

Ironman 70.3 race
The cabin was a perfect place to stay for our race, it was close to the race site and everything we needed was a short drive. The cabin has all the essentials we needed, the beds and sofas were comfortable. We also enjoyed the deck and the river runningthrough the property.

beautiful
If you enjoy nature and privacy, this cabin is perfect. It is true to its description. The cabin backs up right to the Platte river and a large deck to go along with it. Plenty of chairs, outdoor table...The kitchen is well stocked if you want to cook and the location is close enough to restaurants if you prefer eating out. Sleeping Bear Dunes, Leland, Suttons Bay, Traverse city, Glen Arbor....all within easy driving distance. I would highly recommend it. Enjoy!!

Peaceful retreat on the Platte River
We had a wonderful time at this cabin! The location is beautiful - the river is right off the deck and it's very private. We didn't see anyone except for the occasional kayaker paddling by. The cabin itself is lovely - very comfortable, clean, had everything we needed for our stay, and the hosts were very responsive when we had a small question about firewood. We would definitely consider returning the next time we are heading up to the Interlochen area!

Fabulous property and location!
Our return trip to your property this year was just as enjoyable as the prior years we've been there! Kayaking on the river, relaxing on the deck or sitting around the bonfire were all so perfect. The kitchen was once again well stocked making the entire stay great. You can bet we'll return again next summer!

There for a short weekend. This was our second stay at Holly’s. We just love it there and will be back in the coming years as it is available. Nothing like relaxing on the deck with the crystal clear Platte basically at your feet.

Serene location
I stayed at the property for a long weekend with friends. The place is an idyllic cabin in the woods with a modest drive to Traverse City and various breweries in the area. The property is well maintained and the hosts are incredibly responsive. I will definitely keep this place on my list of favorites for future getaways.

Loved this adorable log cabin next to the river. It felt private, we loved eating dinner at the table and watching the fish jump and play in the little sandbar by the cabin. It was clean and welcoming, would definitely stay again!!

Really nice cabin with all the stuff you need. Very quiet but close to Honor. We had most meals on the porch and got to listen to the river as it runs within a few yards of the cabin. Very relaxing time

Delightful and peaceful riverside cabin
This cabin is lovely for a relaxing, comfortable stay to enjoy the burbling river. Its location east of Honor allows easy access to Crystal Mountain, Frankfort, Crystal Lake, the Leelanau Peninsula, Interlochen and Traverse City. The cabin is alongside the Platte River, where you can say hi to kayakers and canoers as they head downriver. There are no immediate neighbors, which makes for a peaceful, enjoyable visit. The layout is a main floor with two bedrooms (queen bed in each), bathroom, under-stairs closet for storage, kitchen with small breakfast nook and island separating it from living area. Upstairs is a loft with two double beds. Only the one bathroom. It is perfect for a couple or a small family, or even two couples if they are ok with sharing the bathroom. The inside is not large, but is cozy and comfortable, and the decor is delightful, with lots of small objects to provide a warm cabin-appropriate feel. The deck that wraps around two sides of the cabin is the real star. Because of all the trees on the property and the cabin orientation, you can get either full sun or shade on different parts of the deck, as you wish. The deck is large, holding a dining table with four chairs, two chaise lounges, a small folding camping table with two chairs, and a grill, with plenty of room left over. It's the perfect spot to enjoy the river and beautiful weather. We spent a great deal of time out on this deck and loved it. Hosts Holly and Bill are wonderful and responsive.

Relaxing River Stay
My wife and I are debating on whether this property has been our favorite rental so far in the area. We loved the remote feel of this stay by the river. I launched personal kayaks from the site numerous time. We had a campfire on a couple occasions. We were close enough to all the local adventure spots. Everything was where we needed it to be and communication was easy with the owners. Would definitely stay here again.
