In the winter you could be snuggled in front of the fireplace watching a movie or talking about the fun you've had on the ski slopes Or In the summer you could find yourself sitting by the fire pit watching the sun go down over beautiful Torch Lake.

Our travel group of 8 adults enjoyed our 5 night stay this past week. Everything is there including kayaks, fire pit, outside griddle and a grill. The local pontoon rental place will deliver a pontoon right to the dock - we kept it for 2 days. Wonderful place to sit, relax and just breathe!

It is cozy and inviting, directly on the lake, between Alden and Bellaire. The perfect spot to kick back and soak up the sun and the lovely view. This is our second visit to this cottage, and we will be back.

We had the best time at Zoe & Tony's place on Torch Lake! Everything was just perfect! They are both so kind and so easy to communicate with. Their place is super cute & cozy ... just what we were looking for when planning our vacation. The views are amazing! Nothing beats sitting on the deck in the morning with coffee and in the evenings with cocktails watching the sunset ... beautiful! We have already booked our summer 2023 vacation for next year and cannot wait to come back and experience their little slice of paradise on Torch. Thank you for such an amazing time! :)

What a fantastic place to stay and reconnect with family!
Everything was perfect, clean, kitchen had everything you needed, bathrooms were great as well. Beds were great for sleeping and gazing at the lake. The property was well maintained and fun to sit and relax. Hope we can go back next year.
3.0
Nice spot on the lake. Property is aged and not maintained adequately. Couches full of dog hair. Multiple wasp nests outside the house. Second floor bathroom is tiny and shower is impossible to use for grown adult. Floors upstairs are extremely noisy and will wake you up at night. House has no air conditioning and it gets really hot upstairs. Even with all the windows open and cool evenings it doesn’t cool off till the middle of the night. If you looking for a comfort this is not a place but the location on the lake is very nice.

We had a wonderful time at the house! It was so relaxing being on the water and the kids loved swimming, fishing and kayaking all along the shore. The house was completely charming and came equipped with absolutely everything we needed. The area is very quiet and we loved it's central location to other day trips including Sleeping Bear Dunes and Traverse City. The owner Zoe is very responsible and quite helpful with any requests or questions. Thank you!

This is our second year at this rental and we loved it just as much this time around. The location is perfect and the cottage is quaint and cozy. The downstairs bath has been recently renovated and if the upstairs bath was renovated as well, this house would be literal perfection. We had a great time and hope to stay here again!

I have been traveling to Michigan with my husband and his family since 1993. Our children have grown up on Crystal Lake. We weren't able to go to the family cottage this Christmas. I found The Little Cottage on Torch Lake and was stunned at how at we immediately felt at home. In fact, the family decided they liked it even more than the family cottage and I NEVER expected to have those feelings. Zoe and Tony were wonderful! I hate to gush too much because I fear it won't be available for all the dates we plan to return. Couldn't have been any more pleased! If you are looking for thoroughly modern lodging, look elsewhere. If you want to experience an authentic Northern Michigan Cottage on the Lake experience with incomparable lake view/access, this place is perfection!

Planned a weekend golf-gathering with friends, all non-Michiganders, who've heard about the picturesque beauty of Torch Lake. "The Little House on Torch Lake" provided the perfect back-drop for rekindling, and making new, memories. This wonderfully kept property, well-appointed with four bedrooms and all the amenities needed for comfort, made for a great way to take-in Torch Lake.
