Informazioni su questa struttura

Torch Lake Eccezionale Cottage Lakefront

NOTA: vedi VRBO # 1587407 se hai più di 6 persone. È la stessa proprietà ma include una Guest House. Vedi i dettagli di seguito.

Situato su una bellezza mozzafiato lago di Torch, questa struttura non fumatori è di proprietà della stessa famiglia sin dalla fine del 1800. Il cottage dispone di interni in legno naturale, due caminetti a legna, scaffali di libri, splendida vista sul lago, intimità e semplicità.

Adatto anche a famiglie con bambini piccoli o coppie anziane, può ospitare comodamente sei persone.

Abbiamo 150 piedi di lungolago, tra cui una spiaggia di sabbia, un molo privato e barche. Il fondo sabbioso del lago è poco profondo per una buona distanza, rendendolo ideale per i bambini.

Il casolare si trova alla fine di una strada privata in un ambiente appartato fitta di alberi secolari. La sua posizione sul lato est del lago offre una vista spettacolare del sole al tramonto, in particolare dal grande ponte all'aperto che si affaccia sul lago, e la pausa quasi costante di acqua che lambiscono la riva. C'è anche una terrazza privata più piccola, con uno swing amaca (uno dei diversi sulla proprietà), al largo della master suite.

Torch Lake è stato nominato il terzo lago più bello del mondo dal National Geographic Magazine. L'acqua è così limpida si può vedere il fondo sabbioso tutta la via d'uscita per il 'drop-off.' Nei giorni di sole, il lago ha nastri di colore turchese che ricordano i Caraibi. Torch è il più grande lago del Michigan (19 miglia di lunghezza e circa due miglia di larghezza) e fa parte di una catena di laghi che permette di andare in barca da Elk Rapids a Bellaire. Vedi questo articolo per una buona panoramica e alcune belle immagini: http: // www. mlive. com / travel / index. SSF / 2017/07 / torch_lake_facts. html

Una passeggiata di 15 minuti vi porta al piccolo e affascinante villaggio di ALDEN. E 'uno dei quattro rampe barca pubblici Torch Lake, un certo numero di ristoranti (sia casual e cucina raffinata), gallerie d'arte, una varietà di negozi, un parco giochi, un campo da tennis pubblico, e una biblioteca. Verdi boschi e ampi campi si estendono fuori dalla città, che offre grande bicicletta ea piedi.

Destinazioni turistiche più popolari, come Traverse City, Charlevoix, la penisola Leelanau, e Petoskey sono tutti a un'ora di macchina. Se si sceglie di avventurarsi oltre, Interlochen Nazionale Music Camp (che offre ottimi concerti), Sleeping Bear dune di sabbia, Mackinac Island, o Hartwick Pines sono vale la pena visitare.

Poiché il cottage è un cimelio di famiglia, richiediamo grande cura e considerazione dai nostri affittuari. Ti chiediamo anche di essere molto rispettoso nei confronti dei nostri vicini: il cottage si trova in una zona residenziale (non in affitto). Per questo motivo, non permettiamo le moto d'acqua al fine di preservare la pace. Grazie per la vostra comprensione!

Cozy Cottage in a wonderful location on Torch Lake.

The cottage was very cozy and clean. The view of the water was incredible. Especially the sunset! The beach area was clean and the kids loved it. Just a few minute drive and you could grab groceries or a bite to eat in Alden. We had a few very minor issues when we arrived to the cottage but the owner was very responsive and prompt to our request to get handled. She was also very polite! Our only disappointment was the master bedroom did have a "musty" kind of stench. Maybe could use some fresh paint to clear that up. And also the water is very hard (It's well water). So definitely bring bottled water to drink. We would definitely stay here again!

Our guest is absolutely right about the water... we DO have a water softener, but I learned AFTER he left that it was not working. I immediately called the water softener company and it is now working once again :-) As for the master bedroom, I will certainly look into this. We had the bedroom painted two years ago, so that is not the issue. Maybe it was a particularly humid period? I don't know, but I am grateful to these guests for bringing this issue to my attention.

Guest house was damp, strong mildew smell, linens on bed dirty, dusty, dead bug, damp and smelled. No ventilation. Bathroom floor sopping wet. Owner notified and I was told the linens were placed three weeks ago. Water from condensation due to rain and humidity. WE had to dry the floor and place “pebble mats” to help with condensation. Due to the condition, everyone stayed in the main house. That night, family wanted showers and no hot water was available. Contacted owner and she stated she forgot to turn the hot water heater on…..was given offer to go to another house on the property to shower or go back in the guest house. She finally gave me the instructions to turn on hot water heater. Later that evening, family sat down to unwind watching a movie and after 5 minutes there were sparks flying from behind the TV. Needless to say that was the last straw and owner notified that we would be leaving the property. We stayed 2 nights as I was fortunate to find another property to go to. The morning of our departure after taking a shower in master bathroom, I noticed the shower curtain was heavy and noticed black mold on the bottom of the shower curtain. The owner is going to tell you she did everything she could to accommodate our issues. I could not stay in that property any longer for safety and health concerns. I completely lost trust and confidence in property and the owner. She is dishonest. Only reimbursed us one night. I have more but running out of roo

I am sorry that this guest's stay did not meet her expectations. For prospective renters, I encourage you to read our many other reviews, which have been overwhelmingly positive over decades of hosting. While I respect that this guest was dissatisfied, I do not agree with several characterizations in this review and do not believe it presents a complete picture of the stay. Rather than engage in a point-by-point response, I'll offer some context for future guests. One issue she reported was the lack of hot water upon arrival. This was my mistake, and I responded immediately by providing instructions to restore hot water and offering alternative shower facilities that were available right away. I remained available throughout her stay and responded promptly to each concern she raised. After two nights, the guest chose to relocate to another property. Although our rental agreement does not provide refunds after check-in and the remaining nights could not be rebooked, I nevertheless provided a goodwill refund equivalent to one night's stay in recognition of the hot-water issue. Our cottage is an older seasonal Michigan lake cottage and may not be the right fit for travelers seeking the experience of a newer home with central air conditioning and a tightly sealed building envelope. For guests who appreciate the character of a traditional lake cottage, I invite you to read the experiences shared by our many previous guests.

Rustic on a beautiful lake

Overall, we had a wonderful week on Torch lake and the house was passable. Thank you to Nan who was extremely pleasant, available, and helped us check in early and get access to the water toys which were locked up. The good: Access to the lake is excellent, the beach area is nice, and the outdoor deck area has a great view of the lake. It is nice to sit on for coffee etc. The house is pretty and rustic and the Wi-Fi was good. Beds were comfortable. The not as good: The house is partially updated and has very old bones as advertised. It is also well used as a rental. The kitchen appliances, instruments, and dishware would belong more in a much less expensive rental. There were a number of cleanliness issues. The well water smells strongly of sulfur. The master bathroom shower curtain was totally molded with black mold. In the kitchen pantry there was a waffle maker with previously cooked waffles left in it for months, covered in a smelly moldy slime. The bushes and ferns around the house are quite impressive and frankly need to be trimmed back. There are a few safety issues which were present. The stone walkways are all covered in moss and very slippery as described in the welcome packet. I slipped carrying a couple of bags and injured my pride. The dock has a broken board that is dangerous. There are ant and spider friends inside and out. We had two days near 90° and temperatures in the house were really unmanageable despite numerous fans and everything being open.

We wish we could have made your stay more comfortable! We work hard to make our cottage hospitable, clean, and welcoming. We could have easily fixed most of these issues (fresh shower curtain, waffle iron, more salt in the water softener to address the mineral smell from the well water, dock plank—all now taken care of). Communication is key, and we are always quick and responsive to any concerns our renters have. Next time, if something isn’t up to par, we hope you’ll reach out to us during your trip so we can address it ASAP and help you have the best stay possible.

It was my hope that I could provide for my grandchildren, for my daughter, and wife, a northern cottage experience. This property accomplished that in spades. We sat on the beach almost every night with the fire pit and made s’mores. We paddleboard and kayaked on the lake everyday. Everyone had plenty of room to create their own private space. And at night we gathered as a family and watch movies (The Great Outdoors, ET, and The Waterboy). The fun thing for me was to occasionally be missing a person only to find them relaxing in the hammock. Everyone left relaxed and filled with memories. Thanks to our host. Also, who was helping me with suggestions on things to do while in the area since I was not local.

Beautiful property to get away from it all...

We were a group of two families with four teenagers (14-17) and a child under 10; we all enjoyed every minute of our stay. Nan is highly responsive to any issue and the property is lovely in a great location on the lake. We spent the vast majority of our time on the lake, beach or deck. The cabin gave the teen girls a place to stay with more independence and their own bathroom. At the end of our vacation, all the teenagers told us they want to come back because there was so much to do. If you are on the fence, book it; you'll really enjoy your stay.

This was the second time that we have stayed at this property and we loved it!! The location is absolutely beautiful, perfect for sunsets and moonsets. The cottage is thoughtfully equipped. The lovely family room stocks a cupboard of board games and puzzles. The master bed was really comfortable and combined with the peace and lakeside tranquility helped us have the most restful nights sleep. The owner was most helpful and made staying here a delight.

Very nice location, beautiful view of the lake and the beach area was very nice.

Bathrooms were all just renovated, but they were very small. Kitchen was very well supplied. The guest house was very nice. The deck was a very nice to sit out on in the mornings and the evenings. We used the beach area too, even though there had been a bad storm before we got there we were still able to use it. Lots of living, and dining space and windows with the view of the lake. We had cool mornings and cool evenings, there is no air conditioning which could be an issue in the heat of the summer. There were plenty of fans that were in all the bedrooms. We enjoyed our stay for sure! Nan was available when we needed to get in touch with here before the trip and during our stay!

Not just a house

This gem on the lake combines the sense of happy history you get from, say Edison's grandparents' house at Greenfield Village--with space, comfy furniture, and board games and books. We can vouch that the piano works for everything from Chopin to Elton John, so take a pianist if you can. The house smells like good old wood and cozy fires. We put the charming and handy kitchen through its paces, the baths are new and pretty, the common areas are gracious. The place has been accumulating its own spirit for a long time. If you are looking for something miles beyond the cliched beach house with Live, Love, Laugh signs on the walls, I highly recommend this cottage-house. It's a true Place.

A special place

This classic cottage was a great place for our family to spend a return visit to Torch Lake. We had a wonderful stay - enjoying the beautiful lake and all of the cottage's outdoor space, including a boat dock/hoist, deck perfectly placed to watch the sunsets, sandy beach and shady lawn with picnic table and hammocks. The location is perfect for privacy, quiet and a walk into Alden. Our adult children loved staying in the guest house - a charming spot just steps from the cottage with a brand new bathroom. The main cottage had everything we needed for great family time (and the two new bathrooms are fabulous)! Nan was a pleasure to work with. We can't wait to return!

Beautiful property on Torch!

Our stay was great over the 4th! Close boat ride to the sandbar and we loved traveling the Torch River to Elk Lake. We walked into town a couple of mornings for the best breakfast and coffee at the Muffin Tin. We also visited Elk Rapids…such a cute downtown! The cabin is rustic and offers all the up north charm one would expect in Michigan! We all slept great throughout the week. The beds were comfy (I always worry about that when we rent) and peaceful mornings on the deck. Everything was clean and fresh towels were on the bed upon arrival. The owner was extremely responsive and easy to contact! Thank you for a great week!

Lovely stay on the beautiful Torch Lake

Lovely cottage on the East side of the lake, great for sunsets. Cottage has some recent upgrades but still maintains the "Old" charm. Nice large deck overlooking the water with a small beach area for swimming and evening campfires for making smores. Located within walking distance to park, tennis/pickleball courts and Alden for a nice ice cream treat. This was our third stay and will always consider it for future visits to the area.

We had a good time despite the less than desirable weather which was no ones fault. Furnishings inside the house were good. Loved the big dining room table. Outside deck and beach were very nice. Children did get a bit of swimmers itch, but again no ones fault. Wish someone could come up with a solution for that!! We love vacationing in Michigan. Made a lot of good memories.

Spectacular and serene

When we arrived at the property, we were shocked at how beautiful and peaceful it was. I’d love to live in a home like this. The landscaping was so gorgeous. It is nestled in the woods on the lake and though there are other houses, it feels so private. It is right on the lake and has amazing views of the sunset. The house was perfectly clean and had all the amenities and items we needed for our stay from cooking in the kitchen to playing in the water to extra blankets for the beds. The hosts communicated very well with us and always responded very quickly. They were very accommodating to us and our needs. I am excited to return to this house and stay again! The town was wonderful and had everything we needed as well. We also loved the beach that was just a few feet away. I can’t say enough good things about our stay.

Informazioni sull’host

Host: Nan Reed Twiss

Immagine del profilo dell’host
My great grandparents bought this property back in the 1800s, and it's been the beloved summer home to generations of my family (my children are now the fifth generation). The cottage which was left to me was built by my grandmother during the 2nd world war, and even though I've lived on both coasts of the US, in Europe and in Asia, I've never missed a summer. Birchwood cottage remains my favorite spot in the world...I just wish I could still spend all summer there as I did as a child. Now our family of five treasures the three weeks we save for ourselves, and scared though I was to share the cottage with strangers, so far, renters have treated the place beautifully.

Perché ha scelto questa struttura

I was lucky enough to inherit this gem. But why I would buy it (and I would!) is that Torch Lake is an extraordinarily beautiful lake, more beautiful than any I've ever seen. The colors are like the Caribbean, and the water is so clear you can see the bottom all the way out to the drop-off. The sandy bottom makes it especially beautiful. The area is so peaceful if it's peace you're looking for... and yet, if you want activity, you don't have to go far at all for inland entertainment. There are lots of artist's towns nearby, nice shops, some great restaurants, golfing, hiking...and the town of Alden is a brief walk away.

Cosa rende unica questa struttura

Our cottage is right on the water, so we sleep to the sound of waves lapping the shore. We watch the sunsets from our deck that overlooks the water or from one of our three hammocks placed throughout the property. The beach is perfect for small children since it stays shallow for a long way. In addition to the obvious sand-castle building, the kids also love to explore the woods and build forts with the driftwood or play on the raft. We love to swim, sail, walk or bike into town. There's so much to do in the area, but honestly, we're so happy at the cottage and on the lake, we generally just stay there.
