A perfect week end up north. The cabin is adorable with a short walk to shared beach access. The owners are very helpful and had just added a few kayaks to the property which was a blast for us to use on the water.Would return!! Thank you

Family Vacation near Torch Lake

Our family of five enjoyed staying in this cozy, clean and nicely decorated home. The kitchen was well stocked. It is only a few minutes walk to Intermediate Lake, where we went to paddle board. In the morning we saw deer in the back yard. We like to explore the area so we spent a few days on Torch Lake, and combined a paddle boarding trip on Platte River with a visit to Glen Arbor and Glen Haven. The hosts are very accommodating and quick to respond.

The place is beautiful. It's extremely beautiful inside. You can tell everything's been redone, but there's roaches, and they expect you to take pictures if they are the food or in the rooms and you are so uncomfortable. You don't sleep because you don't know if they got into all your stuff.

Thank you for your feedback. Our home is regularly treated by a professional pest control service, and I asked for photos so we could share with them what it was that you saw. We have never had complaints of roaches nor have they been reported by our cleaning crew. Cleanliness and guest comfort are our top priorities, and we’re committed to maintaining a high standard. We appreciate you bringing this to our attention and will take every step necessary to prevent it from happening again. Thank you again for staying with us.

This is a great little cottage for an up north getaway! The proximity to beautiful lakes such as Torch, Elk, Lake Bellaire, Intermediate Lake, and even the Bay make it a boater's or Lake Lover's dream! The cottage was very clean and the kids just loved the beautifully designed "bunk bed room!" You are just a short drive from the super cute town of Elk Rapids and an easy drive to Charlevoix or Petoskey. The little town of Central Lake is cute and has a yummy ice cream store! The cottage is very close to a local grocery store and even a Dollar General! The lake access was a nice way to walk down to a dock and just relax by the water! Would recommend for sure!
