Wonderful Stay at Torch Lake Northern Escape!
What a great week we had at Torch Lake! The weather was great - the accommodations were excellent - plenty of room for everyone with a beautiful view of the lake out front. Dawn had timely responses to my questions prior to our trip and provided the information needed for a relaxing stay.

A truly wonderful vacation
This was the first time that my family was able to get away and all be together. This home was perfect, even though the weather wasn’t on our side. My mom has mobility challenges, so having accessible features ensured she was able to have a comfortable experience. My nephews, age 2 and 4, loved watching the boats and ducks go by. The home is really in a prime, beautiful location, and the neighbor next door was so kind and let us fly kites off her dock! Dawn was so easy to work with throughout and was quick to respond if we had any questions. Thank you for a lifetime of memories, I cannot recommend this home highly enough!
