The best of Up North!

Centrally located in the center of Benzie County. Situated across the street from the crystal clear Platte River. Includes river access with dock and bench to enjoy. Property is in the village of Honor, walk to grocery stores, restaurants and bars. Float down the river to Tipsy Canoe for a bite to eat and enjoy some Ice Cream with a short walk back. I also have bicycles, tubes, canoes, kayaks, fishing boats, pontoon boats, clear kayaks and clear SUP's available for rent.

Great stay
We had an excellent stay! The communication was awesome, host is very responsive and friendly, checking in and out was a breeze. We loved the fire pit in the backyard and took advantage of the free canoe rental offered by the host. This house provided instant vacation for us. Thank you!
