Waterfront home on all-sports Big Platte Lake with sweeping lake views. Swim, fish, sail, paddle and boat from 50 feet of beautiful, private frontage with a sandy lake bottom. This sweet spot includes a year round, furnished home that features air-conditioned main floor living and cable internet and WiFi. The view of the lake from the picture window in the living room is beautifully framed by shade trees. The eat-in kitchen offers corner windows to enjoy the view and extra light as you cook and dine. Sleeping arrangements include two bedrooms plus a smaller combination bed-and-laundry room. Step outside and watch the lake from the covered porch and swap stories around the campfire and under the stars. A paved driveway leads to the two-car garage. Stash your kayak in the garden shed because you can paddle to Lake Michigan from here. This is a desirable location near the Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore.
