We all loved our stay above the Torch River Shack! Five cousins, five days, it was clean and very comfortable. Fun to be in the area and we fell in love with Torch Lake. Owner was onsite daily and so friendly, gave us great recommendations for places to go and where to eat. We cooked most meals on the gas grill outside. Rented a pontoon from the Torch River Shack 2 of the days - great boats too! We are already trying to line up our calendars to return next year.

We had an absolute blast! Scott and family were very hospital. The boys who help with gas and food at the shack were awesome too. We had a small problem with our boat and Scott was there the whole time ensuring we got up and running, even the DNR was concerned and helpful. We are 1,000 percent coming back! This place is amazing

6 stars out of 5!!! Pizza was amazing our first night and a fire was perfect ending on our last night!! Scott and the boys were fantastic! Just book the tri-toon from him, it's too perfect of a set up to pass up on.The quality of the boats was great:) We even tried some exploring based off Scott's input!!The apartment above the store was super cute and we really enjoyed our stay there.Do not pass up !!!

Great location in the heart of the action on Torch Lake

We love this part of Michigan, and now have spent time there for two summers in a row. This stay made it so we have found a home base.

We had such a wonderful stay at Torch River Shack! The cabin had everything we needed and more—cozy, clean, and thoughtfully stocked. The view was absolutely beautiful, the perfect place to relax and enjoy nature. Our host was so kind and attentive, making sure we had everything we needed throughout our stay. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and can’t wait to come back!
