Om boendet

Torch Lake Exceptionell Lakefront Cottage

OBS! Se VRBO # 1587407 om du har fler än 6 personer. Det är samma egendom men innehåller ett pensionat. Se detaljer nedan.

Ligger på hisnande vackra Torch Lake, har denna icke-rökare egendom ägts av samma familj sedan slutet av 1800-talet. Stugan har naturliga träinteriörer, två vedeldade eldstäder, böcker av hyllor, vacker utsikt över sjön, mysighet och enkelhet.

Lika passande för familjer med småbarn eller äldre par, sover bekvämt sex personer.

Vi har 150 fot lakefront, inklusive en sandstrand, en privat brygga och båt hissa. Sjöens sandbotten är grunt för ett rättvist avstånd, vilket gör den idealisk för barn.

Stugan ligger vid slutet av en privat väg i en avskild miljö tjock med gamla träd. Dess plats på östra sidan av sjön ger en spektakulär utsikt över den nedgående solen, särskilt från den stora utomhus däck med utsikt över sjön, och nästan konstant lull av vattnets kluckande vid stranden. Det finns också en mindre privat däck, komplett med en hängmatta swing (en av flera på tomten), av befälhavaren svit.

Torch Lake utsågs den tredje vackraste sjö i världen av National Geographic Magazine. Vattnet är så klart att du kan se sandbotten hela vägen ut till "drop-off." På soliga dagar, har sjön band av turkos färg som påminner om Karibien. Torch är den största sjön i Michigan (19 miles lång och ca två miles bred) och ingår i en kedja av sjöar som tillåter båt från Elk Rapids till Bellaire. Se den här artikeln för en bra översikt och några bra bilder: http: // www. mlive. com / resor / index. SSF / 2017/07 / torch_lake_facts. html

En 15 minuters promenad tar dig till den lilla och charmiga byn ALDEN. Den har en av Torch Lake fyra offentliga båt ramper, ett antal restauranger (både tillfälliga och fina köket), konstgallerier, ett utbud av affärer, en lekplats, en offentlig tennisbana och bibliotek. Gröna skogar och breda fält sträcker sig ut från staden, erbjuder bra cykling och promenader.

Populära turistmål som Traverse City, Charlevoix, Leelanau halvön, och Petoskey är alla inom en timmes bilresa. Om du väljer att våga längre bort, Interlochen National Music Camp (erbjuder utmärkta konserter), Sleeping Bear sanddyner, Mackinac Island, eller Hartwick Pines är väl värda ett besök.

Eftersom stugan är en familj arv, ber vi om stor omsorg och hänsyn från våra hyresgäster. Vi ber också att du är mycket respektfull för våra grannar - stugan ligger i ett bostadsområde (inte hyra). Av den anledningen tillåter vi inte jetskidor för att bevara freden. Tack för att du förstår!

Great cottage on Torch Lake

We really enjoyed our stay. We've rented a number of cottages over the past 30 years, so we have experience with what to expect, and this definitely met our expectations. Nice large rooms for socializing, and the master bedroom is really large too. Kitchen was well equipped and they have a very nice outdoor grill as well.

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!

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.

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.

Beautiful Location

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.

Had my family vacation at this beautiful property. Everything was perfect. Home is very clean and the kitchen has everything you could ask for. The private beach area was our favorite,new beach chairs were available for us to use. Portable fireplace was very nice.plenty of swings and patio furniture for my family of 10. It's was a bit chilly but we still had a great time. Sunsets are beautiful and seem like they last for hours! Best vation ever!

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.

Good place for families

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.

Torch Lake 2019

The vintage style cottage is adorable. The views are beautiful of Torch Lake. We enjoyed walking to town for breakfast down a path near the cabin. The location is great .We dined in Bellaire, Elk Rapids, Traverse City and then visited Sleeping Bear Dunes National Park. This location was great to be centrally located. We also spent several days out boating the beautiful lakes . Nan was very responsive as a host.

Family Vacation

Short boat ride to the sand bar, short walk to Alden, great deck for relaxing, owners were very friendly and easy to work with, there was a minor problem with the plumbing and it was taken care of immediately, we rented a boat for the week and would highly recommend that, friendly neighbors, plenty of parking space, kids loved the pad they could swim to and jump off in the lake, plenty of kitchen supplies (sometimes too many when trying to find what you need), this house provided everything our family needed to have a great time!

Om värden

Nan Reed Twiss är värd

Värdens profilbild
My great grandparents bought this property back in the eighteen hundreds, 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.

Varför värden valde detta boende

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.

Vad som gör detta boende unikt

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.
