Waterfront Home With The Best views of Torch Lake

My family and I stayed here for a week, wanting access to Torch Lake for the sailing regatta we were in town for. The house provided a great gathering location and place to create great memories! The deck by the water was our favorite place to hang out, with the most incredible sunsets!

Michelle is a great host.

The property is on the north side of the lake. If you like things to be a bit quieter then this is the place for you. We had plenty of room for our family of six.

Beautiful location. We have never stayed anywhere that didn't furnish AC, an ironing board & iron, and outlets that included 3 prongs or a dock that you couldn't dock your boat to. When I contacted the owner about the AC not working (the thermostat stated heat or cool), I was informed thete was no AC and that no one ever complained because it is cooler by the lake. Told to just open the windows. We opened all the windows, turned on every fan and it was still 80 inside the house 6 days later! Later, we noticed that we were being watched through a camera outside.
