Honor House on Platte River

The property is wonderful - right on the Platte River near the small town of Honor. Very peaceful! The kitchen is well stocked, lots of towels, and paper goods (towels, toilet paper). Libby is a great host and responded quickly to our questions. We had 6 adults and 3 children and the accommodations were everything we needed. We will definitely rent this place again.

We really enjoyed our trip. We love the area and its proximity to several locations we were looking to visit. The house worked out and accommodated everyone we had on the trip. The only recommendation I would have is that the house, which has obviously had some upgrades, could be done a bit better in places. That said, we are already looking to book a return trip in the next two years for another family vacation. The biggest surprise to us was how awesome the available kayaks were. We ended up using them every single day, and the kids had so much fun with them.

What a wonderful house! The river was beautiful with lots of wildlife in the back yard! We did a long girls trip, hiking at sleeping bear dunes and a kayak trip ending right at the house. The access to kayaks was the best part! Close to traverse city for a day of winerys. Will definitly be plannig another trip here soon!

We loved the setting and utilized the outdoor activities to the fullest—-kayaking, campfire, meals on the deck. It was a wonderful week. We’ll be back next summer!
