This wooded, 3-bedroom lake retreat is located on 100 ft of East Torch Lake waterfront, offering clear blue water, stunning sunsets and a perfect spot to enjoy bonfires on the beach, morning coffee on the deck and a sunset glass of wine. The cottage is spacious and accessible with an open floor plan, fully equipped kitchen (with a new induction range and butcher block island) dining room perfect for large family gatherings. There is a full bathroom and bedroom (queen bed) on the first floor and 2 roomy bedrooms upstairs (2 full beds in one and 2 twin over full bunk beds and a twin in the other) each with it’s own en-suite full bathroom. All 3 bedrooms face the water, offering beautiful breezes and peaceful nights, listening to the waves. The property has Wi-Fi and is conveniently located near Clam River with easy access to a boat ramp, water sport rentals, and the famous Dockside, a great spot for a beer and burger, watching the boats go by. A 70’ dock and swimming platform offers you a place to tie up your water toys, or just laze in the sunshine. We just added a new washer and dryer for your convenience. If you want to venture out, you are close to all the beauty and fun Northwest Michigan has to offer.
