Rapid City, Michigan
Situated across the road from Torch Lake this house offers the perfect getaway with 2 public lake/sandbar accesses conveniently located less than a 3 minute walk down the road. This vacation home is just minutes away from downtown Alden (2.3 miles) and Elk Rapids (13 miles).
The house was updated in the spring of 2018. The vacation home includes a full kitchen, with stove, oven, dishwasher, and microwave. Next to the kitchen is a dining area that seats up to 9 people. There is also a laundry room with washer and dryer. The master bedroom, at the back of the house, includes a King sized bed and television, there is a walk-in closet and master bathroom attached. A second bedroom offers a closet and a twin-over-full wooden bunk bed. The half bath is located across from the second bedroom. From the living room, located in the front of the house, you can get glimpses of the lake through the trees across the road. Out the living room door there is a covered porch with views of Torch Lake (through the trees) and the small frog pond on the property. The upstairs offers two more bedrooms, one full bath and a kitchenette with compact fridge, microwave and coffee maker. The woods bedroom towards the back of the house has a queen size bed and a 42' smart TV. The lake view room with Torch Lake views offers a full bed and a cozy reading nook.
A charming pond with water lilies and lots of frogs (no fishing !) is located in front of the house. But perhaps the best part of the house is outback. There is a romantic fire pit and a hammock located out the backdoor. The fire pit is the perfect place for s'mores, camp songs, and ghost stories. A grill is provided for cookouts. The backyard leads right into the forest behind the house. The forest offers miles of trails to explore.
Please note that this house is located in a residential neighborhood and we want to be respectful of our neighbors. The vacation home is intended for families who want to make life-long memories and not meant for loud parties.
The home is really nice and we had a good amount of space for our families, 4 teens and 4 adults. Kitchen has everything we needed, beds were comfortable, bathrooms were clean, and washer/dryer worked well. The garage was great for games and the front porch and backyard fire pit gave us space to enjoy the outdoors. We enjoyed our week at Torch Lake.
This house has everything you need. Plenty of space and activities to keep you busy. We enjoyed the firepit, garage games and hiking trails! She has supplied everything you need for kitchen neccessities. Everything is labeled and very organized down to a first aid kit and emergency supplies. Our only complaint is the road is fairly busy and loud which was unexpected. But that’s really the only complaint.
It was an amazing visit to Torch Lake. Everything was absolutely amazing. I would highly recommend the house and boat rental.
Lots of shade in the hot weather, perfect for our family. Lack of beachy access areas was a disappointment. Despite that, we had a great time.
I can’t say enough about Torch Lake, or this property! Beautifully clean and organized, pretty much everything you need is already here: beach towels, floats, even bug spray. The frog pond and campfire circle are ridiculously relaxing to sit aside. Owners just across the street, too! Great experience. 10/10
Great place to stay.
Anja had a beautiful home. Plenty of space and garage is massive! She had a nice note welcoming us with stuff for s’mores to enjoy when having a fire. Plenty of wood was there for us to use. We recommend!
Our four-generation family stayed at this wonderful cabin and we absolutely loved it! It was immaculately clean and very comfortable. Must see in person, the pictures just don't do it justice! The garage playroom was a godsend with our 2 year old granddaughter and 12 year old grandson! When the weather was a bit inclement, they had a space to burn off all of their energy! The hosts were absolutely awesome and responded to any questions we had so quickly. I raved about our stay to friends and now they're going to book this gem too!
The house was very clean and it had everything we needed. The owner was very hospitable. Centrally located so don’t have to travel long to Traverse City or other places in northern Michigan.
we had a great relaxing vacation at torch lake. the public access for the kids to swim was just down the road. the host were very nice and helpful.
Thank you Anja for being an amazing host. The home was beautiful and clean. It was the perfect place for our annual girls trip. The front porch was a great spot to enjoy a glass of wine and take in the Torch lake views. We enjoyed sitting around the fire pit and catching up. The link to pontoon rental was an awesome bonus. Definitely one of our top vacations thus far.
There was 8 adults that fit pretty comfortably in this house and we had a blast. Everything here you need is here. Very clean and not far from boat launches too. Thank you for maki g our vacation so amazing!!
The house was very well kept and stocked. We appreciated the little things like a s’mores setup, fire wood and legos (among lots of other things!). Thank you for a great week that felt like home!
This was our third time renting this property. We couldn’t ask for a better place to stay. Clean, beautifully decorated, and everything is there that we need. Great hosts, who truly care about your experience. Thank you!
The house was comfortable and well-appointed with everything we needed.
One of the best VRBO’s I’ve stayed at. Very well stocked, very clean and a great host. Even came by to say hi and let us know if we needed anything just let her know. Definitely highly recommend.
The property was lovely, the house was clean & cozy. It soon became our vacation “home”. The road in front was busy but we got used to it. I would stay there again
Very clean property. The location was great to the public access for the lake. Views of the lake and located across the street from lake. We had everything we needed. I would highly recommend this place and I would definitely rent it again.
