About this house rental
Enjoy the perfect family get away, right across the street from one of Torch Lake’s best public accesses. This three bedroom, two bath home sleeps eight people and features all the amenities including high-speed wifi and a custom-built back deck for you and your family to relax and enjoy. Laundry is on site and we covered the basics including a full set of pots and pans, cooking utensils, a coffee maker, a toaster, and a blender in the kitchen. We also include shampoo, conditioner and body wash, towels, and a hair dryer in each bathroom. Anything else you might need can be found 1 mile down the road at the local grocery store.
We are within 1.5 miles of the beautiful little town of Alden, Michigan. View all Torch Lake has to offer at many of the local shops and restaurants, or hit the water from the easily accessed public boat launch. We do have parking for two vehicles plus a boat trailer at the rental, so bring your own boat or rent one from any of the local rental services. Alden boasts some of the finest small-town vibes in Michigan and its entirely family friendly with two different ice cream shops and a children’s park within walking distance of downtown. All the family fun in one cozy destination.
If you’re more of an adventurist, there is also a kayak and SUP rental company in downtown Alden or you can bring your own and launch right across the street. We also have a few nice rivers in the area to really immerse yourself in nature. If two wheels are your thing, Glacial Hills has a nice set of flow mountain bike trails that can be ridden or hiked. If you prefer hiking there are several beautiful nature areas to explore including Coy Mountain, Glacial Hills and Grass River Natural Area.
Looking for a more leisurely activity? We are minutes away from the award-winning Shanty Creek Resorts golf courses — including Hawk Eye, Cedar River, and The Legend.
We do live on the back portion of the property in a separate dweling, so we can be conveniently reached at any time and offer quick responses to any concerns you may have. There are security cameras locate outside the rental at the front doors and in the driveway. Unless requested, our rental is no contact, hassel-free so you will be given a code prior to your check-in to access the main entry door.
Please feel free to message us with any questions!

Lovely home, great location. This home was well equipped with many amenities to make a family feel right at home. Host definitely went out of the way for the children to have activities, games, and things to do on the property. The host was very kind and accommodating in every way, especially with communication. Thank you.

We stayed here for 3 nights. There were 5 adults so we used all of the bedrooms but not the bunk beds or futons. The place was very modern and looked like all new appliances. Great kitchen, bathrooms, and living area with huge tv. We also like the fans in every room and enjoyed the outdoor patio. The only downside is that the master bedroom smelled a little musty and it sits off a busy road but it was a great location to a market, cute places to eat and right across an access point to Torch Lake

The house was clean and had everything we needed and more. Perfect for a family! Everything was as stated. Short walk to the lake.

Stayed with 3 couples, very clean and modern indoor space. Beautiful outside decking area with patio table, black stone grill, beverage frig and gas fire pit. Amble parking for boat and jet ski trailers. Within 10 minutes of DNR Torch River boat launch. Kitchen equipped with everything you need for cooking. Host even provided smore kit and complementary local coffee and wine!

We just spent a week at this property for a family vacation with 4 adults and 3 young children. Property was clean; house was recently renovated and very comfortable. Many outdoor games for the kids to use on the patio. Good location for exploring Traverse City and other Michigan "up north" areas. Owner responded immediately to any questions I had. Torch lake access and great open area park area was a short walk but across the busy road. Kids needed to be monitored carefully due to traffic. We did though, take advantage of the park/beach as well as others in town, including tennis courts close by.

Excellent family getaway! House was as great as advertised. Very clean, had everything we needed. LOVED the back patio perfect for our family of 6 to cook, eat or just relax. Nice fire pit area. Walking distance to the lake, a quick drive to wine country. Excellent communication with the owners prior to our visit. Thank you so much for a memorable family vacation!!!

The home was beautiful - the back patio being our favorite hangout spot to play games and listen to music. We were welcomed with a thoughtful gift for the bonfire - nice touch! Communication was great and the whole checkin and checkout process was a breeze. Right across the street from Torch Lake, a small skip to the cute little town of Alden, and 10 min from Dockside Watersports. Relaxing place to be!

We stayed for the Memorial Day weekend. This home is absolutely beautiful. The outdoor deck was great. We used the black stone, and cooked quite a bit. The landscaping and lighting are beautiful.
The inside was extremely clean, and had everything we needed. The property staff was very kind and helpful.
There are so many options of things to do in the area that are so close- we had the best time, and will definitely be back!

Daniel was overly accommodating, letting us know when we could check in earlier than expected. The house was immaculately clean and spacious for all 5 of our guests. There were many nice add-on touches throughout such as a smores kit for the back patio, a bag of coffee for the morning, nice toiletry products, etc. There was extra pillows and blankets in the closets and games and tvs to enjoy. We were only there for a brief time as we had a birthday party in town that took most of our weekend but we would definitely book again and plan to spend more time enjoying the house and yard. A great place for families or a large group of adults. We had 5 adults and it was more than enough space and privacy for all of us. Will book again! Thanks!

A group of girlfriends booked this property for a weekend away in Torch Lake. We could not have been happier with the house. It was incredibly clean, beds comfortable, kitchen stocked with everything we could possibly need, walkable to the lake, and an unbeatable outdoor deck area. The host was very accommodating and quick to respond to my relentless questions as we planned our trip. If you're ever planning a trip to Torch Lake, this house is a must stay!

We had a tremendous stay at this property. It was extremely clean and well appointed. The house itself was very comfortable with smart TV's for entertainment and a nice XBox that our teens enjoyed. It also had an amazing outdoor area which allowed us to enjoy some time outside while cooking or just hanging out. It included a gas firepit, tons of seating, an outdoor fridge that kept our drinks cold and a blackstone! There's also a very nice traditional firepit with ample seating and stocked with firewood. Just really well appointed.
The hosts were also very communicative and accommodating. They provided several arrival gifts, which we really enjoyed, and checked in to make sure our stay was going great. The check in process was a breeze, and the location right near Alden and a close drive to both Belaire and Traverse City made it a great experience. It's also right across from Torch lake with access to the water. The hosts really wanted us to have a positive experience, and it showed through the entire time we were there.
We loved this property and would highly recommend it to anyone traveling to the Torch Lake area.

We stayed for 5 nights with two “big kids” and three “littles”— had a great time. The property is very unique. -Extremely- clean. Centrally located. Everything you could need for comfort (including a -really- cool Blackstone outdoors which is also located on a very nicely designed patio/outdoor entertainment area. Daniel and his wife were beyond easy to communicate with and were available for anything that came up to be sure our stay was comfortable (including making sure we had what we needed to get through a power outage caused by a storm — without us even asking for help!). Very understanding, very hospitable hosts. We will be back to this property.
Added bonus: circle drive for anyone with a boat and two DNR launches minutes from the property — don’t have a boat? Beach is within walking distance.

we were two families of four that enjoyed this property for 5 days. The house is well taken care of and properly set up for family fun. Xbox in the kids room, lots of board games and even lawn games ready for screen free fun. Being right across from the lake was an easy answer for our last minute booking. The road is a bit busy - but worth the 3 to 5 min walk for early morning dips or late evening swims.
The back porch was a perfect spot for our adult time while the kids watched movies / played games. The outdoor flat top was clutch for large evening dinners under the stars.
Dan was an incredible host - quick with responses and easy to work with. Highly recommend this hidden gem that is a perfect getaway.

The home was very well equipped with everything and more that a family would need. The home was very clean and close proximity to the lake and the small town of Alden. We would recommend this home to others. The owner was very responsive and great to deal with. Thanks for a nice vacation!

This property was very clean, had wonderful furnishings and was well stocked with supplies. The back deck is beautiful and a great place to relax after a day on Torch Lake. The welcome book had great notes and recommendations. We had a great stay!
The property is very conveniently located. It is close to multiple boat launches. It is also close to Village Market grocery store, about 1 mile away. We were pleasantly surprised by the offering of food and alcohol at Village Market. If you are looking to swim without a boat, there is a public park just across the street and it wasn't very busy at all.
The road can be a bit busy but this wasn't an issue or deterrent by any means.
Book this property, you won't be disappointed!
