Great location close to Torch Lake and Charlevoix. The cottage had everything we needed although we didn’t spend much time there because we were mostly out and about. We had a little trouble with the keypad but the host was very responsive. We would stay again if we want to be close to torch lake but it was a little pricey compared to other places we have stayed up north.

Comfortable beds, would not consider “family friendly” if you have very young children. No kid dishes as listed and garbages did not have lids. Overall nice place just didn’t fit our family’s needs

You definitely get your money's-worth with this property! It's been updated, and the addition of window A/C units in each bedroom makes it a comfortable stay. Kitchen is well-stocked, all of our needs were definitely met, traveling with two grade-school age children. I do want to point out, for future families, this property does not have direct beach access and is situated at a busy and loud intersection. The closest Torch Lake access is boat ramp access, not a place to swim or to call a beach. It is located near US 31 and M 88 which gives easy driving to many local beaches, lakes, and activities. We especially enjoyed visiting Friske, just up the road.

Place was clean and AC was necessary as it was unseasonably in the 90’s in June. Utilized the kitchen to cook several meals, which had everything we needed to prep our food (spices were limited to salt and pepper). We used the grill for steaks but had to replace the propane tank since it was left empty. Most of the shore line is privately owned but if you keep your eyes open for small brown boat launch signs, there are some places to reach the water. We walked 1/4 mile east to Eastport Landing boat ramp which has a small public beach where we went swimming. We also rode our bikes west to Barnes Park Campground where we learned there is free public access to Traverse Bay along a huge white sand beach, where we caught a beautiful sunset while others swam. The people in the camp store were very friendly and confirmed day use was free at the beach. We spent an afternoon in Elk Rapids which was very nice. We also spent an evening in Traverse City enjoying the Traverse City Distillery which we highly recommend! Took our own kayaks and paddled from Torch Lake through Torch River, Lake Skegemog and up Elk Lake where we stashed our bikes so we could pedal 6 miles back to our truck on Torch Lake (there were some big hills to climb). Water was choppy with 10-12mph winds for most of the paddle. Did a 6 mile hike in Maplehurst Nature area which was an intermediate hike with only one grand view of Maplehurst Lake, but it was beautiful and we had it all to ourselves. Several wineries.
