We stayed for a week and had a great time. Fishing, boating, sandbar! The chain of lakes is beautiful. The house had everything we could need and was very comfortable for a family of 4. Great restaurants in the area. The dock was nice to have for our boat. The hosts were onsite and so accommodating. New friends were made and the trip was a blast.

Great location! The deck was awesome for morning coffee and evening dinner by the fire overlooking the lake. Renting the boat from the owners was super convenient with the boat house out back. Family and friends already requested for us to rent next year.

Everything about this location is PHENOMENAL. Beautiful property both inside and out. Everything you need is there. Clean, stocked and location to the sandbar is right across the street.

Only issue we had was "loud walking" neighbors, but we knew this was a duplex and this could have been a possibility. Location, the property and Torch Lake were awesome. We will definitely be returning. Megan and her dad were very helpful and great to work with.

Perfect location. Great hosts. So much fun.

Such a perfect location on the river with access to boat house and the sandbar right across the street. Owners did such a great job renovating this place for optimal fun, and were available for anything you may need. Party deck was the best!! Would recommend to anyone looking for a place to rent in this area. Option to rent their boats as well so you can really experience the Chain of Lakes.
