East Torch Cottage Su

Always my #1 priority: cleanliness. The house was immaculate and had enough space and privacy for my family of 5. You can tell that there’s a lot of effort that goes into making guests feel at home, and we did! I will absolutely rent again, thank you!

Clean, spacious, great view

This cabin has a wonderful location on torch lake and is relatively clean, however if you look closely, you will see some cob webs in lights etc. When you are paying well over $1000.00 for a weekend, then the outdoor furniture should be clean and ready to use. The carpet had been vacuumed but their are obvious stains. We were told to bring beach and bath towels but there was also no kitchen towels. The main bathroom has zero towel racks and the rack in the second bathroom was broken. The second bathroom’s sink is also leaking underneath the sink. The decor is very odd for a lake cottage and their some obvious signs it was done cheaply, i.e. the crown molding not fitting together well. The kitchen is pretty well stocked with useable items. I would recommend putting a code on the door so keys don’t have to be used. There was a good amount of space and met our needs. Just would have liked to have seen a little TLC.

The house fit our two families of four nicely. It needs some updating like the stained carpet, kitchen island lights held up by electrical tape and water leaked out of the laundry room sink faucet if used. But overall did the job with a lot of space and lake frontage for family play or an easy boat ride to the hugh sand bar. Note to be prepared to have to moor your boat as you can’t leave it docked to the pier due to the lake can be very choppy periodically. Great outdoor back area to hang out. Great location to get to Alden and Bellaire. Butch’s down the road is awesome to grab stuff or order take out chicken. Shorts Brewery in Bellaire has great pizza for take out or hang out there to do a tasting flight. The location was also an easy 1 1/2 hour drive to Mackinac to take the ferry to the island or Sleepy Bear Dunes that we did a day trip to each.

This home was very comfortable and clean. The view of Torch Lake from the deck was gorgeous. Everything worked well. Some of our family members have trouble navigating multiple levels, so having everything on one level was great! We'll be back in 2023!

Great sunset views, large house with plenty of room to spread out , very nice dock.

The location was perfect for celebrating our parents 50th wedding anniversary. Plenty of room inside and out for all 8 of us to enjoy the week. Evenings were spent by the campfire and listening to the lake :) Overall our experience was very good, however we did have an issue with the hot water heater that was unfortunately not resolved until Wednesday evening of our Saturday to Saturday stay. The property managers were responsive and made sure it was resolved, it just put a bit of a damper on the overall experience.

Wonderful place to stay with lots of room to spread out.

The property was great. Very nice inside. The outside still needs some work. Landscaping unfinished outside and still under construction. Very steep gravel driveway and was a lot to unpack and pack the cars. Some Trees blocked the lake view in the back and minimal lights to walk down to the pier. But the view from the pier was amazing. Very beautiful sunsets! Nice bonfire area.

The property was clean, well kept and the description matched the experience. The house was a little pricey even with splitting the cost with 8 people but definitely worth it. I would go here again and would recommend this home!
