Wonderful New Years stay!
The two of us just wanted a little New Years getaway, and this cabin in the woods was perfect for us! Adorable property, and appointed perfectly for everything we needed. We used the firepit both nights, and used the grill/kitchen each day. The area is beautiful, and we took advantage of being up north - in all it hs to offer!!

Anniversary weekend
We loved every minute of our stay. When we first got there we saw a buck in the yard! The house is simple and quiet. The short walk to the dock is worth it. We walked to the dock at 1 am and we saw the stars light up and we could see them reflecting in the river! It was incredible. We took a drive around Torch Lake, but we actually preferred the cabin! We would come back again and again.
