This is cozy, old-school cottage located right on Torch River. This home is unique because from the front door you will see the popular all-sports Torch Lake and out the backdoor you gaze upon Torch River. The public beach access is directly across the street from the property, which has a small sand bar. In addition, with a private dock, this home allows you to use bring your own water vessel or you are free to use the kayak, which is included in your stay. There is a waterway passage from the river to the lake and vise versa. When taking your boat (up to 30') to and from, please watch for stumps in the water. You may also want to observe other boats on how they get through because the waterway is not clearly marked.
Having a main floor and an upper level, there is enough space to separate yourselves for some peace and quiet! Upstairs plays host to the 2 bedrooms and only bathroom-with a bath tub in the home, while the main floor is occupied by the kitchen and living room. An attached-garage is also where you will find water goodies and extra supplies. With patio furniture and fire-pit, you will thoroughly enjoy your time along Torch River.

The house had EVERYTHING we needed, the house is much better in person, it was the perfect house in the perfect location for having the “lake house experience” with boats, boards, kayaks etc. walk to boat rental few blocks, store right down the street in case you forgot something - they literally sold anything you could need for your stay Very clean, no issues at all

This was a lovely cottage with a great location. The dock out back was great and so convenient for our boat that we brought with us. The water toys provided were put to good use. Across the road was direct access to walk out to the famous sandbar. The cottage was clean and comfortable. The new grill was great for cooking and the fire pit near the water was awesome. Minor issues include 1 parking spot directly in front of the cottage and due to the heavy traffic on Crystal Beach Rd, it is hard to get in/out without getting flipped off by drivers speeding by. Also, the property listed a dishwasher but we didn't find one. The bedrooms are both upstairs and the stairs are a little narrow but navigable with care. Last, the toilet is a small round RV size toilet upstairs. If you're 6' 6" tall, it presents a challenge. However, overall, these are very minor issues. Being near this beautiful lake and on the river, with a boat dock far exceeds any of these issues. I would definitely stay here again and would highly recommend.

Based on the listing photos, I expected it to be similar, if not exactly the same. The day of our check-in I was notified that we could arrive sooner than expected because everything was "ready." When we arrived, we did not understand where to park which was easily remedied by calling the number provided. We walked into the house and it was clean and prepared for our stay. However, when we walked out back, the grass was about 5 inches high, the grill cover was thrown in the yard with a puddle of water accumulated in it and there were no chairs outside to sit in (besides the ones around the table on the porch). There was also a paper towel box thrown to the side that looked like it had been there for quite some time. I went into the garage to see if there was a lawnmower and it looked like a dump. There were kayaks and other trash (along with a million spiders and spider webs) thrown about. I expect when I'm told a property is ready, that it's actually ready for us to use instead of doing yard work. The team was very responsive and did have the lawn taken care of the next day (after I used a weedwacker to mow it down partially). There were a few other issues (AC units, fuses blown, kayak with a hole), but the team was responsive and we're problems solvers so we managed. It was more frustrating that anything. Overall the location was worth it.
