    The location was great, and the house was very clean and comfortable. We easily walked the 10 minutes to the Torch Lake public access point with our kids. Check in was easy and hosts were communicative.

    Place was exactly as advertised. Clean, great kitchen and living space, close to the lake, and perfect for our family of 4 adults, 2 small children and one college child. Host even left us a nice gift of smores. Highly recommend.

    We didn’t really use the house for anything other than sleeping but it was clean and perfect for what we needed.

    There were four adults who stayed Thursday-Sunday. We arrived a few hours early and wanted to check in to change and get out on Torch lake. I contacted the host and they let us come early!! Super appreciated that! The house was very clean. They left a little snack box and a folder with menus for restaurants near by. The location was not walking distance to anything, but a short easy drive. Also close to small towns, which we loved! We all said we would go back!

    The place was very clean and cozy. The host/hostess were super great with communication! They went the extra mile and left us a snack basket as well as provided firewood. Would definitely recommend them and this place! Super close to the sand bar as well!

    Immaculate! The owners supplied us with waters, coffee, snacks and an adorable home! We have NO complaints about our stay only a few suggestions. A front porch might be a nice addition to provide a cooler outdoor spot when the evening sun is beaming on the back patio area. Although the living room furniture is perfect esthetically, it was not especially comfy, but we didn't spend tons of time in the living room with beautiful Torch Lake so close!
