Peaceful Acres was the perfect northern Michigan getaway. Close enough to lots of lakefront towns and attractions, but secluded enough to feel peaceful and private. We enjoyed walking and running the trails around the property and daily trips into neighboring towns for food and lake activities. The cabin is clean, cozy, and has everything you need for your stay.

Even better than the pictures! This space was remarkable and sooooo beautiful! To see how the structure came together through pictures really brought everything together. They also had a bin of toddler approved toys which was amazing. We'd come back again and stay longer.

We loved the property! First time coming out to this area and traveling with our dog. This was a trip planned around our dog. She loved being able to run around free. The house is beautiful and has everything you need. It smelled clean, the temp was perfect, the privacy was amazing. The beds are very comfortable. We only used the firepit for some quick s’mores , but the setup is great for family time. Wish he had more time to explore the trail. It’s secluded, but still close to some towns and Torch Lake. We highly recommend this property.

Fall getaway

My husband and I had a fantastic stay in this gorgeous log home and we were able to bring our best girl (chocolate lab) , a must for us. Very comfortable beds and lovely kitchen stocked with everything you may need, we really enjoyed the seclusion and trails as well as the fire pit. Close to a cute town with some lovely little shops.

Very clean property both the grounds and the cabin. Well stocked; had everything we needed to have a fun getaway. The location is near lots of attractions including Mackinaw Island.

Friend reunion

A couple of friends of over 30 years along with their wives, enjoyed every second of this home. Everything you’d need to have a great time. Used the fire pit, ate some great meals using the grill, and had an easy drive to Torch Lake for a day on the water. Would stay here without hesitation.

The description of this property is absolutely spot on. We booked this over the week of July 4th because it is pet friendly and our dog does not do well with fireworks. Although you could still hear some fireworks on the 4th and 5th, our dog was so wore out from walking the property and surrounding areas, that they didn't bother her. I can honestly say Peaceful Acres had everything we needed for the week and more. If you're looking for a get-away that is still close enough to a lot of dog friendly locations, this is the place. Thanks for a great week!

Peaceful Acres is our “check out of the rat race” getaway for sure. Quite nights and days filled with cookouts with family and friends. Glad to hear your fur baby was able to relax and enjoy the nights after a days running through the trails. Please come visit us again sometime. It was a pleasure having you there.

Michigan heat wave

We started with temps in the 90’s, air and fans got a good workout, kept us nice and cool.Cabin was great for us all week, and our dogs, location was perfect for all the places we planned on going to and we did them all.Property was nicely landscaped, we didn’t use the trail due to going places daily. Loved Alden, beautiful little town with Alden’s Mill House, go there, it’s amazing. Torch Lake area is beautiful, which is why we booked this property, location was perfect.

Amazing Hidden Cabin Near Torch Lake

The cabin had everything you could want. It was clean and had plenty of space. The location is perfect for all sorts of activities including fun on the many lakes in the surrounding area. The house was close to several amazing golf courses. In the winter, the cabin is close to ski resorts and snowmobile trails. The property owners were fantastic to work with. This cabin in the woods is a fantastic choice for those looking for a place that is close to the fun, but far enough away to not have to pay crazy high prices. We will return in the future for more fun in Northern Michigan.
