Amazing beachfront and dock

Absolutely loved the dock access for our jet ski and proximity to sandbar and town. Very beautiful area and property.

Perfect Torch Lake property

The house was in the perfect location for the sand bar. This house is at the quiet end of the sand bar. So if you like piece this is your place. However if you want to be in the crowd its a short boat ride or paddleboard ride.

Great location!

This is a cute little house that was perfect for our family. Very clean and had everything we needed. Response time was very fast for the one issue we had (coffee maker broken, no big deal). The lake is so clean and nice and not as busy as we dreaded. Really close nice market and cute town of Alden. We loved it here!

Fantastic spot

Our family absolutely loved staying here. Everything was better than expected. We had two littles with us (2 yr old & 3 yr old) and the water toys and bin of toys in the house were a huge hit. You can't get much better than Torch Lake and this house was fantastic. We can't say enough good things about it. Alisa was so quick to respond with my random questions and was so kind.

Perfect Spot for Families

We had a lovely week on Torch Lake. With kids ranging from 12-5, the shallow waters directly in front of the property were perfect for our family. The home itself was perfectly sized for our family of five, giving everyone their own space while also providing nicely sized family spots. The house is incredibly quaint with many charming decorative touches. It brought back many memories of lake vacations from my own childhood. It’s also important to mention that this house comes incredibly well stocked for a rental. Every kitchen tool you could possibly need, and then-some, was available to us. I would definitely recommend this rental to anyone looking to enjoy Torch Lake!

Location, location, location

This was our first trip to Torch Lake, and staying on the beach was our top priority. This home is on the south end of the lake and the lake is absolutely amazing. We swam each day in the clear water. Beach towels, water floats, and a paddle board were available too which was nice. The owner was helpful and responsive for our entire trip. When we could not access NBC to watch the Olympics, she signed up for Sling the same day to help. We visited the last week in July which happened to be the hottest of the summer. The lack of air conditioning was a drawback as the house was very hot, even with the fans. This would likely not be a problem if the temperatures were in the 70s. Also, the house has not been updated, so expect the feel of a cottage that hasn't changed much in decades. Updated towels and linens would be a good idea. It was clean and did have all the supplies we needed.

Nightmare stay

We were so excited to visit torch lake! Rented a boat for the week and drove 8 hours to vacation here. Arrived on a Saturday to mouse poop all over the kitchen counter, on dish-ware, along the floor in bedroom off the kitchen. Immediately reached out to the homeowner . No response from her until 8 hours later. Had to clean all of this up before we could use anything or even put our groceries away. The owner did text us at 2 AM letting us know she would have an exterminator come out on Monday… in the meantime we bought traps placed them in the kitchen and garage where they were coming in. After catching several mice, we decided to pack up and leave. We took the financial loss on our boat rental because unfortunately there were no other properties available to rent on the entire lake. The owner was far from polite or considerate. Stating that she had no control over there being mice in the house and acted like getting an exterminator 2 days later was acceptable. She only refunded us because VRBO finally stepped in as this was a health amd safety concern.

Great location for Torch lake activities

Rustic cottage with beautiful views and quiet location. Has updated living room furniture. Bedrooms in general could use an update but overall has what you need. No AC but fans throughout, still brought our own but has nice breeze from lake. Outstanding access to Torch lake, no stairs and somewhat of a slope to small beach and dock. Beautiful clear water, shallow, and sandy bottom with few rocks. Dock, mooring buoy, and boat hoist a definite plus for lake activities. On arrival, had issues with housekeeping chores not completed and previous renters did not take care of recyclables or put out trash and left items in frig which we had to deal with but housekeeping should have caught. Owner quickly responded to issues. Got chigger bites from the well known sandbar, as son didn’t go with us there and does not have one bite. Would consider renting again.

Great Stay!

We had a wonderful week at this property. Clean (but could use some updated linen), beds were comfortable, and plenty of fans (no AC!). The beach was great, but watch out for swimmer's itch. Do your homework before you go so you don't itch all week. The living room cabinet was stocked with puzzles and games. We rented a kayak and paddle board from Alden Marine & Sport. They were great!

Great, restful time away

Absolutely loved this property. The check in/out was easy. There were plenty of toys around for kids, easy login for the tv, and awesome patio to relax on. The sandy beach was perfect for sitting and readying withy your feet in the sand. The lake was perfect on a hot day. Beautiful

Spectacular spring sunsets and sunrises

We really enjoyed our time at the property. It had a rustic feel and smelled of pine trees. I was very impressed with how clean it was when we arrived (with exception of one of the bedroom fans). We enjoyed all the changing conditions of the water and watching the sunset every night. It was too cold to swim when we came but we still enjoyed hanging out by the shore looking for rocks. The house was in the perfect location to be a home base to venture out to other places we wanted to explore such as Sleeping Bear Dunes, Traverse City, Cheboygan, and Mackinac Island. We would definitely recommend this house.

Perfect location!!

We loved our stay! House is perfectly located and had everything we could need. House was clean and well maintained. We really enjoyed having a yard big enough to play catch and volleyball. The water was perfect: sandy bottom and shallow super far out. It was like being at the sandbar but without the crowds.

Cozy cottage on the water

Had a very relaxing and comfortable stay - we spent most of our time outside on the deck and yard enjoying the lovely water view! Rented kayaks from Alden Marine just down the road which they delivered and picked up. Easy to launch kayaks from the little beach area near the dock. Convenient location- 30 minutes to Traverse city, 1 hour to Petoskey, less than 5 minutes to quaint town of Alden and grocery, and great breakfast quiches at the muffin place in Alden. Thank you!

Amazing stay on Torch Lake

My wife and I really enjoyed our stay at this property on Torch Lake. The location of the house was perfect. Close to a few restaurants and a local market, but within a drive to so many different areas to explore. There was a very nice patio to sit outside and enjoy meals. The lake is stunning and right there when you walk into the backyard. We also enjoyed the view from the living room and the fireplace was a great touch. Appliances and cleanliness were all superb. Very quiet location. Easy check-in and the host was easy to communicate with. We will definitely stay again!
