Excellent location and very clean property. Comfortable stay. Nice access to Lake Michigan. I believe it’s a bit more of a walk to Torch Lake We were surprised to find basic cooking ingredients missing however - such as olive oil and spices other than salt and pepper. So recommend folks visit a store for these basics. Also did not find hair dryer there so recommend making sure travelers bring one.

We had a nice getaway after a small wedding ceremony! It was prefect for us and we really enjoyed the property!

The location is extremely convenient to so many things! It is walking distance to hikes, a restaurant, a store, and 2 lakes (lake MI & Torch lake). The place was clean, with all amenities and window air conditioning units in the bedrooms. There are blackout window shades which are wonderful for the long summer days in Northern MI. There was a cute back area with a grill, fire pit, and some chairs (we didn’t use either, but it was nice that they were there).

Very clean up to date house. We were looking for a home base the explore the area. Lots of nice beaches and parks near by. Property sets a little ways off the intersection of 2 main roads. Shut the blinds and you wouldn't know it. It's a good place to stay to explore the Lake Michigan area. Very friendly and responsive host!

The home was just as described. Plenty of room to park our boat. Great Cafe/bar across the street with live music every night. The home was clean and fit our family perfectly. Great location with hiking trails close by and beautiful Torch Lake with two boat launches within minutes away. Campground across the street, fire pit at home was a nice addition. The owner stayed in contact with us the entire time to ensure we were enjoying our stay. Check in was very easy. Plenty of markets close by as well. We will definitely be back.

We had a very nice stay at this Vrbo Rental. Host responded to messages within an hour. Location is on busy/main roads, so there's not much privacy in the yard. But it didn't bother us when we were inside. Washer & dryer were great. We had one rainy day during our visit, and the living room was great to watch movies & play board games. We were surprised at how comfortable the mattresses were. The water was sulfur-smelling, but that's super common for the location. We brought plenty of water to drink. There wasn't a grill brush, but turns out you can use crumpled up aluminum foil to clean the grill.

The location was great! Unfortunately the one air conditioning unit in the home made it unable for anyone to sleep due to how hot the home was even with the fans we bought. The lack of a microwave made it impossible to heat anything up because we did not want to use the oven due to increasing the temperature of the home. The pans that were there had crusty food left in them and the worst thing was the smell of the water. We opted to go somewhere else to finish out our vacation.

There was a slight check in delay because of laundry, no problem for us as the cleaner was very accomodating. Place was nearly spotless. Finishes and furniture was clean and of decent quality. My only complaint was the shower pressure was low but thats not anyones fault. Few things to note.. we had 1 toilet paper roll not sure if thats normal or not but might want to pack extra. There are a couple of markets nearby for convenience but also $$$$ a box of cereal was $11. Nearest Meijer is 30 min south in Traverse City I think. Also we didn't realize Torch lake really wasnt a beach friendly place (never been here before). We don't have a boat or anything but didnt realize we would hardly use it bc no beaches and you reallly can't see it very well from driving around. Location of the house is so nice, 20 min North to Charlevoix or 20 min south to Elk rapids. Both have nice family public beaches. The Barnes park beach nearby is also pretty nice but we like to visit a new beach daily. Property is close to Friske fruit stand which our kids had a blast at their facility. We also headed into Central lake (Blue Pelican Inn)for dinner and stopped at the 1914 Cellar and also Torch Lake Cellars. Would def recommend this rental to anyone. Rooms had window air-conditioning units which kept the rooms very comfortable for sleeping. And the rental had blackout blinds on every window which is extremly nice!!!
