Great location right on torch lake!

The location was great and the house had plenty of room with a nice deck to hang out on! We rented a pontoon at a nearby boat rental company and had an amazing time! We also were able to kayak on the lake straight from the house. Overall great experience, 5 stars!

Property, location, & home are all phenomenal. Easy to find. Comfortable beds. The deck is absolutely perfect. We had an excellent stay in early June. Quiet area which is exactly what we were looking for. The view of the sunset is breathtaking. Would definitely rent this home again. Communication with the owner was easy. Check-in & out was seamless. Highly recommend.

Sunsets on the lake no matter if you’re viewing from inside the house on the porch, by the fire or on the beach are breath taking. This house was just what my friends and I needed for a weekend getaway!

Torch lake is a gem and so is this cottage!

Very clean! Quality furnishings and the kitchen had absolutely everything we needed. Beds were comfy, although I was glad we brought our own feather pillows, as theirs are firm poly. The Views from the home are lovely, especially the master bedroom.

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!

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.

Wonderful summer retreat

This is a beautiful, clean home on the north (and quiet) side of Torch Lake. House had an "up north" feel but is not rustic. Kitchen was very well stocked. All areas were clean and spacious for our party of 7. New deck on the back of house was perfect for lounging and small dock provided an area to sit on the water. Crystal clear water! Close to several restaurants (we loved Torch Lake Cafe) but not walkable. We would come back to this place in a heart beat. Thanks for the memories!

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.

What a beautiful retreat

We had a wonderful stay at this Torch Lake rental! The house was exceptional — clean, spacious, and fully stocked with everything our family of seven needed (ages ranging from 1 to 40). The kitchen was well-equipped, the beds were comfortable, and the home had a cozy, welcoming feel that made it easy to relax and enjoy our vacation.The views of Torch Lake were absolutely stunning, and we especially loved the breathtaking sunsets each evening. The property was peaceful and perfectly located for a family getaway.The only disappointment was that the listing advertised a playground and swimming platform, which were not available during our stay. It would have been great for the kids to enjoy those amenities, but it didn’t take away from the overall experience.We truly enjoyed our time and would absolutely return. Highly recommend this property for anyone looking for a relaxing and scenic stay on Torch Lake!

Beautiful Red House on Torch Lake.

Inviting and welcoming are two words that come to mind when describing this home. It was spotless, beautiful and peaceful. Although it was cool when we visited we loved having some wine and cheese on the back porch then opening the windows just about so you can hear the lake and feel the breeze. It was everything we hoped it would be. Many thanks for a lovely 2 day get away. Michelle R.

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

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.

About the host

Hosted by Jeremiah

Host profile image
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.
