About this property

Fishing, Golfing, Winery Oasis! Live Like a Local!

This Rapid City home blends peace and quiet with outdoor adventure for those who like to keep busy! There is a private dock that has easy access to the entire Chain of Lakes including Torch Lake, Elk Lake, Clam Lake and Lake Skegemog. You can take your private boat our rental right from the house to the famous Torch Lake Sand Bar! You can easily rent and keep the boat at the house or bring your own and only have to launch in and out once!

Outdoors, the house sits on almost an acre of land with plenty of room for outdoor games, enjoying the fire pit or sitting on the large deck. There is room for you to enjoy sitting on the dock and watching the sunset! For outdoor enthusiasts, you can take the paddle boat or the Kayaks! In the summer, you can hike or bike the Seven Bridges Nature Area or head to Shanty Creek Resort for snow sports in the winter!

Inside the house boasts 4 inviting bedrooms. Lower-level room includes 1 queen bed with a half bath next to it for guests to enjoy. Upper level includes primary room with 1 king bed and an attached bathroom with a soaking tub and a separate stand-up shower. Upper level also has a second room with a queen bed and a third room has full bunk beds. (There is a trundle bed for use, it's just hard to pull out). The third bathroom is also on the upper floor which includes a tub/shower combo. Amenities like a hair dryer, towels and toiletries are also included. (There is a pull-out couch in the game room seating area. If you'd like that pulled out beforehand, please let us know)!

There is also plenty of room for all to spread out! You can sit peacefully in one living room and watch TV or sit in the other and enjoy a book or drink by the fireplace. Coming off the lake or having a rainy day, you can play a round of pool or use the shuffleboard in the large game room. There is also a cozy sitting area in the game room if you want to feel like part of the fun or just feel like resting! The all-seasons room is also there for storage or to use as another seating area. A fully stocked kitchen and large dining room with plenty of seating is yours to use!

If planning to enjoy your golf game or ski trip or just need some storage for your stay, the two-car garage will also be available to store your clubs, snowmobiles or any other belongings to lock up.

Beautiful spacious property

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this beautiful home. The owners have put a lot of thought into making it a great place for one or more families to relax and enjoy. The kitchen is well stocked with everything needed to cook. There are multiple spots to be cozy and watch TV, as well as a small room with a fireplace that’s perfect for reading a book. We got lots of use out of the pool table! This home would be amazing in the summer, too, with a huge backyard and long dock. Thanks so much for sharing your place with us!

About the host

Hosted by Kay McKinnon

Host profile image
Hi there! We are a family of four from Battle Creek, MI. We have a chocolate lab that is also part of the family! We recently looked at this house and fell in love! We purchased it in November 2024! We hope you love it too!

Why they chose this property

We loved how large the yard was and loved that there was dock with boating access to Torch Lake. We took a trip to the lake last year and fell in love with how large and beautiful the lake was! It's so blue and unique to Michigan!

What makes this property unique

The house is large and can host a larger family, friend group or fun for a smaller event. The large yard is where the kids can play, you can set up yard games or host a beautiful dinner out there! The best part is there is a dock with access to the chain of lakes and even better yet, is only a 5 min boat ride to the famous TORCH LAKE SAND BAR!! A MUST SEE!!
