About this property

Cozy cottage 100 feet from beautiful Torch Lake.

Enjoy a peaceful stay at this naturally bright, 2-bedroom, one bath cottage just 3 miles North of Alden. This terrific property offers an inviting atmosphere that will make guests feel right at home. With 1 queen bed, 1 full bed, and 1 bunk bed, there's plenty of space for everyone to relax and unwind. The cottage also features convenient amenities like a washer/dryer, heating, an outdoor firepit, and a fabulous covered deck facing the lake. Plus, there's an additional living room/indoor porch with a sofa bed for extra comfort. We are located next to a public lake access, so a swim in the lake is only a short 100 foot walk away! There is an attached carport for one car and plenty of parking for another car, as well as boat trailer parking. Only two cars and one boat trailer allowed on site. There are two boat launches close by,,,Clam River (1.5 miles), or Alden (3 miles). The quaint town of Alden also offers wonderful shops, eateries, and public tennis courts. This cottage perfect for those wanting to enjoy the lake. We live in quaint neighborhood, so guests should be respectful of our neighbors...they are all awesome. Strict quiet hours 10 PM - 8AM No glass bottles down by the firepit. Please leave shoes by the door when you walk inside. Enjoy!

Vacation 2024

We had a great time, the stay at the cottage was very convenient and relaxing. The lake access was so close. The little town of Alden was very close and was very nice.

Convenient and clean!

We had a nice stay at this cabin, as it fit our needs well. It was nice to have bunks with a double bed in one room for kids, and a queen size bed in the other bedroom. The porch and deck were very nice to view the surroundings and we ate on the deck using the nice table most nights. The public access to the lake was very close and the fire ring out in the yard was perfect for night-time campfires and s’mores, with it slightly cool in the evenings. We liked this cabin home very much.

Nice cottage

This was a nice cottage, it worked perfectly for our family. The kids enjoyed all sleeping in the bunk bed room together. A few things were out dated: the coffee maker and the grill was so dirty and not usable. There is no TV, so I was thankful that they had a few games and books available for when it rained all day. My kids were fascinated with the neighbors free range chickens that would frequently visit the back patio and sit under our van. All in all we liked staying here.
