About this property

Walk to Platt River, Hot Tub, Indoor Pickleball, Arcade Games, Kayaks, Bikes

Welcome to our completely remodeled home in Honor, a short drive from Sleeping Bear Dunes and the beaches. The Platt River kayak launch is a four minute walk from our front door. Three restaurants are a two minute walk from the front porch.
We have TVs in every bedroom, a hot tub that is open year round and is walled off from the wind, and an indoor pickleball court. Enjoy many board games, a Super Nintendo Mini, and Disney Plus and Amazon Prime Video. We currently have three arcade machines.
Large groups will enjoy our two decks, one of which is covered with a TV, outdoor kitchen, and hot tub. Rainy days are not a problem with an indoor pickleball court and Cornhole tournament area with three sets to use. Have a campfire in the fenced in backyard.
We also have axe throwing, crochet, bocce ball, a full size beach volleyball set, and lots of other games. We provide everything you can think of- beach towels, life jackets, helmets, camp chairs, cooler, backpack, and much more.
With two dining rooms, four bars, to decks, and an outdoor kitchen our home is thoughtfully designed for large family groups. We have many toys for kids and many bikes to enjoy. Our home has new mattresses, couch, loveseat, recliner, linens, appliances, and kitchen.
All bedrooms have a TV and a/c.
Pack n’play, high chair, stroller, and kid carrier backpack available as well for little ones.

Amazing Place for a Group of Guys

Between the pickleball, hot tub, arcade machines and how many beds there are it was a fantastic space for a group of guys. The host was very accommodating and easy back and forth. Also the staff at the Sweets Bar was a two minute walk and a lot of fun!

Amazing Stay

We had a fantasctic experience. The home was cozy, clean and everything we needed for a relaxing weekend getaway. The location was perfect, and the host was incredibly welcoming and helpful. Highly recommend for anyone visiting the area. Crystal mountain skiing very close and the hot tub at the house was a hit.

Clean, Cozy and Close to Everything

We loved our stay! The home was very clean, very well stocked, comfortable and close to all the surrounding northern Michigan towns. We had a great time exploring different Lake Michigan towns during day trips, most were only 20-30 min away. The fenced in backyard was private and great for our pup to explore. Communication with the host was excellent. Highly recommend!

Winter weekend getaway

An ideal location for our extended weekend getaway. Only a short drive to Crystal Mountain for some winter activities. The hot tub on the back deck was used every night. It's great to have a place to stay where we could bring the family dog with us. Our host was wonderful, and we would stay there again.

The owners were very gracious. Our grandkids had so much fun as there were toys for them to play with. Everyone enjoyed the hot tub! It was also nice to be close to Glen Arbor and sleeping bear dunes. A great time had by one and all!

Good place for a group!

Nice clean house. The kitchen is well equipped and large, the living space is open too. The back patio is a really nice touch, even when it rained, you’re outside and comfortable. Close to the restaurant in Honor, you can walk there. The host is easy to work with, I hope to work with again.

Super responsive property owners

The property owners were super responsive which we appreciated! Nice amenities and centrally located. Ideally located for our plans. Plenty to do at the property that we stayed in a day and were not at all bored. Nicely set up property for small groups or large.

About the host

Hosted by Bryce Ropp

Host profile image
Hello and thanks so much for the interest in our home!
I'm an elementary school teacher in Honor. We have the privilege of living in one of the most beautiful areas in America, but it does come with super high property prices, more than a teacher can afford.
Your stay at our home helps up pay our mortgage. We are so very grateful!!! We have another place to stay when guests are over.

My wife and I have three young kids. We like to kayak, canoe, bike, hike, backpack, ski, and camp. I have hiked the Appalachian Trail and have ridden the TransAmerica Trail on my bicycle.

We take great pride in having the cleanest and nicest house you will ever stay at. Unlike rich people who have someone else manage their property, we do everything with great pride to make sure your vacation is wonderful. We go the extra mile to be accommodating to your family.

Why they chose this property

Every day my kids and I walk a few minutes down to the Platt river and play around or in it. We carry the kayaks right from the garage to the river and paddle away till my wife picks us up when we are done. It's a pleasant half an hour bike ride from our house to Lake Michigan. In the fall the salmon come right up to the bridge by our house. In the winter Crystal Mountain is only about 15 minutes away. We are a short drive from everything.

What makes this property unique

Being able to rent out our home has allowed me to buy all the cool things I have ever wanted for my family! We really have pretty much everything!
We have two huge decks. One is partially enclosed with a hot tub and outdoor kitchen. We turned our huge garage into a pickleball court and cornhole tournament area. We have three arcade machines. We also have a lot of kayaks, canoes, bikes, and kid trailers. We also have tons of kid stuff.
