Excellent Home!

Me, my wife and grandparents came into town for the Petosky Stone festival and stayed at this beautiful home! It had everything we wanted and needed plus more. Just wish the weather had been nicer!

Spring Break 2025

We were visiting Traverse City & Boyne during our stay, so the location was perfect. The proximity to Torch Lake was an added bonus. We were very impressed with the feel and cleanliness of the house. Very well maintained and decorated which made for a relaxing stay. We hope to book a stay here again in the near future.

Was the perfect place for our trip

We had a great time at this super adorable cottage. So close to downtown Alden which has all the essentials, and only 35 mins to Traverse City where we did an awesome wine tour. The cottage was super cute, clean and perfect for our three night stay. We enjoyed some time on the front porch as well as the back porch. We didn't get to utilize the fire pit but there was one available. The host was very nice and accommodating and we would definitely stay again

Great Location and convenient to everything. We loved the decor, the new appliances and the garage we named the “Boom Boom Room.” The porches were nice to sit and have coffee and the fire pit was very nice to sit and enjoy the evening stars. The washer and dryer worked great and the full size refrigerator fit all our groceries and more. Torch Lake was definitely Beautiful and Dewitt Marina was very accommodating. Dockside had great food as well. Thank you for a Wonderful Labor Day Week!

Modern clean and cozy

Very nice little rental home. Owners provided wood for fire pit. Plenty of towels and toiletries. Radio in garage is nice for some outdoor music. If you are a fan person while you sleep you will have to bring one as there is only a ceiling fan in the living room. Overall bery satisfied.
