Beautiful Sunset Views on Torch Lake

The host Maureen is absolutely wonderful! We were concerned about the weather for our original dates, and she let us modify it to the following long weekend where we had beautiful 80 degree days full of sunshine. We also rented the Pontoon with her local tour guide and we didn't want it to end, it's an absolute must-do! Thank you so much Maureen, my family and I loved it!

Beware of the property manager

We would NOT recommend you rent this home. The property manager accuses renters of damage that was not caused by them. If you decide to rent, be sure to take lots of pictures of everything as soon as you check in so that you can defend yourself when claims of damage are made. Also, don’t even move one pillow or she will charge you. Finally, make sure you check the garbages as soon as you get there. We were told there are 3 bins of garbage we could use - come to find that all 3 were full when we got there and were never cleared during our stay. There was also old food in the refrigerators - expired Turkey, vegetables, fruits, etc….

Rent this house! What an amazing property. Everything we needed and more was at this house. The water is the clearest and most beautiful water I have seen. Great for paddle boarding, swimming and kayaking. For those that like to fish, I would recommend the fishing guide. Maureen the owner was incredibly easy to work with and made sure we were happy. Our family reunion couldn’t have been better!

Beautiful fall visit 10 stars out of 5!!!

Our family had an amazing time at this property. We were there in October for the fall colors, to visit Bellaire and to get out in nature. Waking up to those Torch lake views was perfection. We felt so pampered and lucky every day of our vacation. The home is huge, it’s set up for a group and is thoughtfully stocked with literally anything you may need. The kitchen was amazing, we were happy to stay in and cook. Maureen was an amazing host and has thought of it all for you. Great communication and goes above and beyond. She really cares and we wish we could always rent all properties from her. She gave us great suggestions for activities too. Thank you for a special fall getaway!

Amazing experience!

I can't say enough about how awesome my trip was. The house is perfect for anything from quiet retreat to family get togethers. The view was breath taking. Every day,I had a glass of wine at sunset on the dock listening the the waves, it was pure bliss. Maureen is such a wonderful and thoughtful host, she even connected me with her boat guy to give me a tour of the lake. I highly recommend Ballinagh to anyone looking for an incredible trip to a beautiful place.

Great place for a family vacation

We spent 3 weeks in this beautiful house. We had 4 kids and 6 adults and the house had plenty of room. I’m not much for reviews, but Maureen was very kind and accommodating so I wanted to make sure to post one. Make sure to rent the boat/jet skis. So much easier renting the ones already at the house than having to get them somewhere else. We’re looking forward to many summers on Torch!

We knew Ballinagh was a place to come back to and it was. Last year was great — this year better.

We had our first experience with the house last year and we loved it. There was little doubt from my family that we weren’t going back — it was unanimous. We cam back=k for 2.0 and it was even better mostly because of the accommodations and constant communication with the owner, Maureen. She made everything seamless and without difficulty. There were many new touches to the property this year that refreshed it and made it look even prettier than it already was. I would highly recommend for couples and families.

Pretty Place

Spectacular waterfront and very nice house. Spacious and well-equipped. Loved the extra amenities like retractable awning for extra shade and generous number and variety of outside seating. Only drawback was we were misinformed that we could park our rental boat on site and had to scramble when we found out there was no mooring. Still, would stay again.

We loved our time at this beautifully decorated home on Lake Torch. The home was clean, the kitchen well stocked, the beds comfortable, and all of the outdoor spaces were equipped with plenty of chairs. The dock had plenty of zero gravity chairs that we enjoyed at all times of the day and night. We loved the water toys, floats, kayaks, and paddle board . Maureen was very informative and responsive.

Exceptional lake house experience

The lake house is gorgeous, plenty of space for relaxing and hanging out while affording enough space for privacy when needed. The yard set up is terrific, the location on the lake is ideal for accessing a variety of places on the water. The property itself had a pontoon to rent as well as other water crafts, we even rented a larger boat one day which the rental place was within walking distance. Maureen is very attentive making herself available to be helpful with questions for the house or area. All in all, great experience

Amazing property! Very helpful and friendly host. Excellent amenities.

Views from this property are fantastic! Boat was a big plus. Only thing that could have improved our stay was a better dishwasher, which I think is currently being fixed. Washed a lot of dishes by hand, so more time in the kitchen cleaning than would have been ideal. But very very pleased and can’t wait to come back!
