About this property

Located in the in the quaint little village of Alden, pristinely nestled on the sunset shore of Torch Lake, Alden Sunset Cabin is located within a stones throw of beautiful Torch Lake. While not located on the lake, you will be so close that on a quiet night you may be able to hear the waves lap against the shore or the loons sing to each other as the sun sets. Enjoy a camp fire in your own fire pit, hang out on your patio while grilling dinner on your own Weber grill or just relax in the totally renovated log cabin with all the modern amenities and comforts of home. The Alden Sunset Cabin provides parking for 2 vehicles and additional space for a boat trailer on the property. The cabin offers your family (4 people or less) the perfect setting to explore the wonderful world of Torch Lake and Alden.

If you need a 2nd Cabin or just a slightly larger cabin please check out our other cabin. Alden Sunset Cabin (VRBO # 2393347) is located directly next door. Alden Sunset Cabin is virtually identical to Alden Sunrise Cabin with the exception that Alden Sunset Cabin is slightly larger and provides a separate bedroom.

Walk to Alden or Public Beaches or Accesses

The Alden Sunset Cabin is located within a ¼ mile of four public beaches (lake accesses) located along Lake Street which is easily accessed by way of a short trail through the woods on our property. The public beaches are open during the day for your enjoyment and provide a wonderful setting for your family to enjoy the beautiful water of Torch Lake. The public beaches (lake accesses) DO NOT allow overnight mooring of your boat or water craft and are closed at night. Please don’t do this.

Alden Sunset Cabin is a short 1/4 mile walk as well from downtown Alden – a charming small town with a spirit you have to experience to believe. Alden is known for its flower-lined streets where everyone you meet offers a friendly greeting. Alden has several restaurants, and Higgins General Store that has the best, biggest, ice cream cones you could ever eat. The town has cute boutique stores, a deli, family bar, tennis and basketball courts, and a park with a playground. Just at the end of the road are the public boat launch, library and community center. The popular Dockside restaurant is just 10 minutes away by boat or car. Torch Lake’s famous sandbar is also a short boat ride away at the southern end of the lake.

Comfortable Family Cottage

Alden Sunset Cabin is fully furnished and provides central air conditioning for those extra hot summer nights as well as Flat Screen Cable TV and Wi-Fi. We supply all linens, pillows, towels, paper products and soap products. The kitchen is fully equipped with a stove, oven, microwave, coffee maker, dishes and all pots and pans as well as a dining table which seats four. We provide a queen sized, pillow top bed along with a pull out couch that converts to a queen size bed. The patio provides a Weber Grill along with an outside table and seating for four. We also provide several comfortable chairs for your relaxation. You can’t go “up north” without enjoying a camp fire and the cabin has its own fire pit along with 4 chairs for everyone’s comfort.

Alden Sunset Cabin is located within the village of Alden on SE Torch Lake Drive and has access to Lake Street which is a very quiet street via a wooded trail west of the cabin. We encourage you to utilize this trail for walks and bike rides. Alden Sunset Cabin has a maximum occupancy of 4 people.


Disclaimer: Please remember, this cabin has been designed and is intended for families or couples and is ideally suited for people looking to build life long memories.

Alden Sunset Cabin is DEFINETLY NOT a party cabin. If you’re looking for a party cottage – please look elsewhere.

My family has lived on this street for over 50 years and we have made life long friends. We respect their right for quiet enjoyment of beautiful Torch Lake and we ask that you do the same. Our summer home is located directly adjacent to the Alden Sunset Cabin.

We look forward to seeing you soon!!

About the host

Hosted by Paul Covert

Host profile image
My family has been coming to Torch Lake and Alden for nearly 60 years. We fell in Love with the beautiful water, the incredible sunsets and the greatest little village in Michigan and we bet you will too.

When God created the most perfect little village - he created Alden and to make it even better, he put it on the shores of the 3rd most beautiful lake in the world.

Why they chose this property

In June of 2015 we finished the complete renovation of this wonderful log cabin. While the cabin offers all the amenities you would expect in a hotel room we preserved the northern michigan feel you can only get from a real log cabin.

The cabin offers a fully furnished kitchen including stove, oven, microwave, refrigerator / freezer along with Wi-Fi and a flat screen TV. Everything is brand new from the bed to the pots and pans.

It also offers a large patio which features outside dining for 4 with an umbrella to provide shade on those sunny Northern Michigan days along with a Weber propane grill and additional seating to insure your comfort.

If you're looking for a comfortable, perfectly located cabin with all the amenities of home - you found it.

What makes this property unique

The most unique benefit of Alden Sunset Cabin is the close proximity to Torch Lake which is located within a stones throw combined with its close proximity to Alden which is a short 1/4 mile walk down Lake Street and widely considered the most beautiful street in Alden.
