Explore Sleeping Bear: Roadhouse | Cottage in Honor





Arrive, unpack, feel at home.
Welcome to Sandbar Shores on Big Platte Lake. This micro-resort is comprised of three cottages with direct beachfront access and enjoyment of Big Platte Lake. Big Platte Lake is nestled in the heart of the Sleeping Bear National Lakeshore and is shallow, warm and sandy.
The Roadhouse Cottage is steps away from the lake and offers lovely views. This two bedroom cottage is furnished with a twin/full bunk, a master bedroom consisting of a queen bed and a living room with a large sectional sofa. This cottage can accommodate five people. There is a fully functional kitchen and one bathroom.
Each cottage is outfitted with a/c, heat, WiFi, Roku televisions, gas grills, linens, towels, pillows, and personal fire pits. The sandy beach lakefront is a shared area between all of the cottages so we request that visitors are limited and courtesy be given to the other quests while enjoying the amenities.
There is working laundry facilities on the premises that is located in the basement of the Main House. Guests from all three cottages have access to the laundry facilities. There are also 2 mooring buoys.
Whether you're looking to explore the dunes, waterways, hundreds of miles of hiking and biking trails, tour the wineries of M-22, or just admire the northern Michigan sunsets and scenery our cottages will not disappoint.
