Nestled on 37 private acres, this beautifully updated 3-bedroom, 2-bath home offers the ideal mix of comfort and rustic charm — with a screened-in gazebo for outdoor dining, a cozy fire pit for evenings under the stars, and a gentle stream where you can relax on the swing or try your luck catching brook trout. Inside, the home is bright, comfortable, and fully equipped for your stay. The open kitchen and dining area make it easy to gather for shared meals, while the spacious living room invites you to unwind after a day of exploring. Guests love the comfortable beds, beautiful décor, and thoughtful touches that make this home feel welcoming from the moment you arrive. Families especially appreciate the flexibility of space — the main home sleeps six, and the bunkhouse offers extra privacy with a queen loft and twin bunk, perfect for older kids, grandparents, or friends. There’s plenty of room for everyone to spread out and enjoy time together or find a quiet nook for reading or relaxing. Step outside to enjoy woodland walks along the property’s private trail loop, watch wildlife from the deck, or toast marshmallows by the fire. You’ll feel completely tucked away, yet you’re just 10 minutes from Torch Lake, Bellaire, Alden, and Shanty Creek’s golf courses and ski slopes. Guests call Woodland Retreat “peaceful, private, and beautifully maintained” — a place where families make lasting memories and always wish they could stay longer. Whether you’re fishing the stream, hiking with your dog, or simply soaking in the quiet, this serene property offers everything you need to truly unwind. Please note: driveway is steep and during winter, 4 wheel drive or all wheel drive, strongly suggested. All guests must be 25 or older, unless families with small children. A refundable $500 security deposit is required and will be refunded after departure, if there are no issues. ## Property amenities ### Internet - Available in the house: Free WiFi ### Parking and transport - Car recommended ### Kitchen - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Hob - Microwave - Oven - Refrigerator - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 3 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 2 bathrooms - Hair dryer - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Living room ### Entertainment - Games - TV with cable/satellite channels - Video games ### Outdoor areas - Barbecue grill - Fenced yard - Firepit - Patio ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - Pet friendly ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoke-free property ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### Things to do - Kayak ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - Fire extinguisher ### General - Unit size: 1,450 square feet ## Similar properties ![Smart TV, books](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/77000000/76790000/76789800/76789754/dae847e6.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Four Season Wonderland in Bellaire - close to Torch Lake, golf, skiing Bellaire - Kitchen - Pet-friendly - Free Wi-Fi - Air-conditioning 8.0 Very good 1 review £158 includes taxes & fees 18 Feb - 19 Feb [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-02-18&endDate=2026-02-19&selected=76789754&PinnedHotelID=76789754&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Property grounds](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/124000000/123040000/123031700/123031627/fce4c7a5.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Resort Condo w/ Pool & Beach Club Bellaire - Pool - Kitchen - Washing machine - Dryer [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-03-03&endDate=2026-03-04&selected=123031627&PinnedHotelID=123031627&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Indoor pool, a heated pool](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/74000000/73060000/73058100/73058050/c753b745.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Courtside Condo at Summit bellaire - Pool - Kitchen - Washing machine - Dryer 9.8 Exceptional 29 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-03-03&endDate=2026-03-04&selected=73058050&PinnedHotelID=73058050&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Property grounds](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/118000000/117940000/117935700/117935612/w1935h1290x430y0-d18771c0.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Relaxing Getaway Near the Lake Bellaire - Pool - Kitchen - Washing machine - Dryer 9.2 Wonderful 5 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-03-03&endDate=2026-03-04&selected=117935612&PinnedHotelID=117935612&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Fridge, microwave, oven, stovetop](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/102000000/101620000/101618500/101618422/d16aa1b6.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Country setting, steps from downtown!
