Another great year!

We've rented this out for three consecutive summers and I always look forward to coming back. It's such a beautiful little cottage and really feels like a home away from home.

Cozy, cute cabin on Torch lake!

Quintessential cabin just steps from the lake with a cute dock, fire pit and chairs . Water is shallow about 1/8 mile out and slightly rocky. Bring water shoes and a kayak!! Fun! Spacious, comfortable, well-equipped and super easy to communicate with the owners. The waterfront is beautiful and quiet. The town of Alden (5-10 min drive) is super cute and convenient. I would definitely stay again !

The perfect stay for your vacation

This place was perfect and we were all impressed with the property. Starting with the oversized driveway. We brought a boat and the driveway was perfect for us to park the trailer and boat when not using it during our stay. We had 10 of us that were staying in the cottage and had plenty of room for comfort and when we slept there were plenty of beds. The back patio was awesome with the extra seating and space to enjoy outback. And just a short walk down the stairs we had beach access and a perfect little fire pit to enjoy the night and listen to the water. They have a grill and most eating amenities but we did bring a black stone. The best part was communication between me and host. Easy to contact and responded efficiently. 10/10 recommend this property for your next adventure!
