Torch Lake Cabin on 2 Wooded Acres Near Bellaire

Summary:

Torch Lake is half a mile away — National Geographic's most beautiful lake, and your home base for the week. This 3-bedroom log cabin on 2 wooded acres sleeps 8, with a stone fireplace, game loft, and backyard firepit. Boat, swim, and sandbar all day. Short's Brewing and Shanty Creek golf are 9 minutes out. Traverse City is 35 minutes. Glacial Hills hiking trails are minutes from the door. This is what Northern Michigan is supposed to feel like.



The Space:

Northern Michigan wakes up in summer, and Eagles Landing puts you right in the middle of it.



Mornings start slow — coffee on the deck while the hardwoods filter the light and the neighborhood goes quiet around you. Then the day picks up. Half a mile to Torch Lake public access, where National Geographic's most beautiful lake is waiting with turquoise water, a legendary sandbar, and boat launches within a mile for whatever you brought or want to rent. Kayak the Chain of Lakes. Hike Glacial Hills Pathway through rolling Northern Michigan forest. Grab lunch at Dockside on the water, then cold pints at Short's Brewing on the way back. Shanty Creek's five championship courses are 15 minutes out if golf is on the agenda. And when the day finally winds down, the backyard firepit is waiting under a canopy of mature hardwoods with zero light pollution overhead.



Come inside to soaring vaulted ceilings, a stone wood-burning fireplace, and a game loft stocked with shuffleboard, a Golden Tee arcade console, and a poker table for the nights you decide to stay in.



3 bedrooms, sleeps 8. Built for families and groups who want the full Northern Michigan experience in every season.

Nice fixtures and furniture, very clean and approachable. Plenty of space for groups to gather (large room with fireplace, TV room in the back, and gaming area on the 2nd floor). Kitchen was very small, I imagine it would be fine if using the grill outside in the warmer months. Counterspace is at a minimum so maybe a giant coffee maker AND ice nugget machine isn't the best budget for space. Tub in primary bathroom has jets, but they do not function. I messaged owners to inquire about firewood and did not get a response. I messaged owners when I fell on the icy front steps, and they did respond and send someone with salt right away. Would recommend getting treads installed on wooden steps going in for safety.

About the host

Hosted by Jason Isenga

Host profile image
We are a family of 6 from the Grand Rapids area. Our life is crazy busy with 2 sets of twins (yes, 2 sets:). We love lake life and enjoy tubing and skiing, and pontoon cruises. When not on the water in the lower peninsula, we like to recharge in Northern Michigan. We own two also cozy log cabin in Paradise, MI on Lake Superior & Bellaire, MI on the chain of Lake (Torch Lake, Elk Lake, Clam Lake, Bellaire Lake).

Why they chose this property

Torch Lake gets the buzz, named among "the most beautiful lakes in the world” by National Geographic and deservedly so...

Torch Lake and Northern Michigan are bursting with ways to get outside and play. Choose your own adventure, and this could be your best vacation ever.

Adventures
• Day Trips ~ From Charlevoix to Elk Rapids, Traverse City to Petoskey, Sleeping Bear Dunes to Mackinac Island — no one puts you in the middle of it all quite like Eagles Landing Cabin
• The Chain of Lakes ~ The Torch Lake sandbar is the place to be… Rent a pontoon boat from Butch’s, Dockside, Dewitt or Riverside Marina
• Hiking ~ Hiking opportunities are rich in Bellaire: Try Grass River Natural Area or Glacial Hills for starters. Another option is to climb the face of Schuss Mountain.
• Championship Golf ~ Play a round or more. With twelve courses in Antrim, your game improves just from the views.
• Mountain Biking ~ Have you biked Glacial Hills yet?
• Wine Tours ~ 6 wine cellars nestled in the rolling hills of Eagles Landing Cabin.
• Shanty Creek Resort ~ Just 10 minutes from the cabin and 45 minutes from Boyne Mountain and MUCH more..
