Fun Family Stay at the Torch Lake Cottage
We recently spent an unforgettable long weekend at this charming lake cottage on Torch Lake, and it exceeded all our expectations! From the moment we arrived, we were captivated by the stunning views and the warm, welcoming atmosphere of the cottage. The interior was cozy and beautifully decorated, providing plenty of space for our family to relax and enjoy each other’s company. One of the highlights of our stay was the firepit. We used it to warm the cool fall air while we enjoyed our coffee with a great view of the lake. The cottage was equipped with everything we needed, from a well-stocked kitchen to cozy bedding. It felt like a home away from home, and we appreciated the thoughtful touches that made our stay even more enjoyable. Overall, our family getaway at the Torch Lake cottage was a perfect blend of relaxation and adventure. We left with cherished memories.

Paying for the lake!
This is a nice comfy bed and acess to the lake. Property is gorgeous . Beds are comfy. The tv was very nice for family movie night. However no ac made it a bit uncomfortable. This is not someplace where you want to do heavy cooking. But it is a nice landing pad after lake fun.
