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.

Cottage Camping. Our grandchildren wanted us to go camping so they went camping across the street

Our Son and his family went camping across the street from our cottage at Barnes park camp grounds. Great family trip. Our cottage was great! Definitely my kind of camping. Very nice cottage. Would stay again and recommend it to friends and others.

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.

What we were looking for!

Very clean up to date house. We were looking for a home base the explore the area. Lots of nice beaches and parks near by. Property sets a little ways off the intersection of 2 main roads. Shut the blinds and you wouldn't know it. It's a good place to stay to explore the Lake Michigan area. Very friendly and responsive host!
