Torch Lake Stay

The pictures of this lake house don’t do it justice, I was pleasantly surprised when we arrived. The house is very clean and well maintained with everything you need. We are looking forward to staying again! Water was beautiful and there is a small beach for the kids to play on. Thanks for allowing us to stay at this gem on the beautiful Torch Lake!

Amazing

My friends and I had the best time enjoying the home, lake, and beautiful scenery. In actuality the home and property are even more gorgeous than the listing. I cannot say one bad thing about our stay, and the property manager was so kind and helpful. We would definitely come to this property again if it becomes available.

Great place!!

Home was super clean. Beautiful views of water. Large outside deck with plenty of seating. Dock was in excellent shape. Kitchen and living room are very roomy and has windows across entire back of house facing water. Bedrooms roomy with very comfortable beds. 3 full size bathrooms. The location is great. I rate this place a high 10. Totally worth the money.

Quick get away

Such a beautiful cabin. I loved that it was right off the water. You have a beautiful view from most windows. Quaint towns close by. Hosts were very accommodating. A helpful pamphlet is provided to assist you with your stay. Hosts available whenever needed. Overall it was a very quiet and relaxing experience.

Early Season Rental

We rented on Memorial Day weekend and enjoyed our stay (4 adults, 2 children). The cottage was clean and as described but due to the early season, there was no dock installed and the beach is really quite small. Beautiful location but cottages are very close to each other... you might be hearing your neighbors (or them hearing you).

Perfect house on a gorgeous lake

This is a lovely well-mantained, well-equipped house at the quieter northern end of the incomparable Torch Lake. The Lake is shallow to the end of the dock, so it is perfect for little kids who want to be in the water all the time. The sunsets are amazing. We love this house. We will be back.

Great accomodation on Torch Lake

We really enjoyed our stay. It was a quick getaway in the early autumn. Would love a chance to come back in the summer season. Beautiful cottage. Clean, spacious, warm. Great kitchen and deck. Communication with host was easy. No issues. Hope to be back!

Beautiful!!

House was beautiful! Very clean and just as described in the listing. The owner was great to work with and very responsive. We had no issues whatsoever. Views were amazing and i enjoyed being at the north end of the lake and way from the crowds at the sandbar. We did rent a pontoon and it was approximately a 22 minute ride from the cabin down to the sandbar. We’d stay here again. The only bummer (and it really wasn’t a huge deal) was that the fire pit is on not on the waterfront.

Outstanding Rental!

The property was beautiful and my family enjoyed our time there thoroughly. The amenities were outstanding, and we enjoyed every day in the water of beautiful Torch Lake. I used to go to the lake with friends as a young man, and this rental provided me with so many wonderful memories, and we created new one’s with our daughter. We had a wonderful experience, and will hopefully get the opportunity to return next year! Thank you so much for allowing me to share Torch Lake with my family!

I had never been to Torch Lake. It was Awsome. The lake is beautiful, clear , colorful.. The property is located on the Northeast-side of the lake. The sunsets are perfect. The home is exactly as described in the listing and perfect for a summer get away. The owner(s) were very responsive to the few times we had questions or concerns. My children had smiles On their face the whole time and we did nothing but laugh. I would recommend this property to friends and family. Z. Yaksich

About the host

Hosted by Jeremiah

We are a family of five who live in Seattle, Washington, but I have deep roots in the Torch Lake area and southern Michigan. My sister and three brothers and I grew up on the lake!

Why they chose this property

Our family has been enjoying the Torch Lake area since the late 1960s. We love sharing this wonderful place with our friends and family. This is the perfect place for kids and adults to bond and enjoy time together!

What makes this property unique

We spent our time at the lake sleeping in, eating well, making sand castle on the beach with our children, swimming and boating daily, and enjoying trips into the surrounding towns. Life is slow and comfortable on the lake, and we feel miles away from work and other worries.
