5 Bedroom Cottage in Bellaire

Looking for an amazing place to spend your vacation this summer? We invite you to spend a restful week in Northern Michigan on the third most beautiful lake in the world at our newly updated, comfortable family cottage on the lakefront.
The first floor features a kitchen with all new appliances that has easy service from kitchen to dining area. The large family dining table easily accommodates 12 people for meals. The downstairs living/dining area has a stunning view of the lake with a window wall across the entire front of the house. You will love sitting at the table with your cup of coffee watching the lake every morning.
The spacious living room has a stunning rock fire place with plenty of comfortable seating and blankets. There’s a smart tv with Apple TV attached for those cool evenings or rainy days and a cupboard full of board games for those who have a competitive spirit. Attached off the dining area is a sun porch with a door that can be closed. Perfect for those days you have to do some remote work or if you just need a quiet place to sit and read.
The cottage has a spacious wrap around deck with furniture that is perfect for sitting and soaking in the sun and the view at all hours of the day. A hammock tucked under the trees overlooks the lake and is the best place for reading….or for taking a nap. An outdoor swing overlooks the dock and is a favorite place to sit and watch the sun go down while sipping on a glass of wine from a local winery. Your kids will love roasting marshmallows at the fire pit on chilly evenings.
The lake is literally 50 feet from the front deck; there you have access to a small waterfront beach, a large sandbox with sand toys for the kids, a canoe, and a couple of poke boats. There’s also a dock with a bench and a tie-out anchor for your boat. The swimming is unparalleled as is boating, sailing, skiing, and tubing with your own boat. There are boat rental places around the lake and a few public boat launches if you decide to bring your own.
Torch Lake is conveniently located close to Traverse City, Leelanau, Sleeping Bear Sand Dunes, Charlevoix, and Petoskey. There are several very good hiking trails close by and the options for different day trips are endless. If golfing is your hobby there are 10 world-class golf courses within close driving distance. The local breweries, wineries, and restaurants feature delicious and unique food and drink. You definitely won’t want to miss out on the fresh fruit that changes with the seasons from the surrounding nearby orchards.
Come experience the "Caribbean" of North America with a crystal clear lake and the best sunsets in Michigan. You'll be coming back for years to come.

Summary: This is our 3rd year staying at CarVer house. We absolutely love our time at this peaceful cabin. This is the first year traveling with our new baby. It was so nice to have the travel crib available so we didn't need to bring one with us! The lake was beautiful and peaceful. It's a quick drive to Bellaire for restaurants and grocery store and to a couple farm stores, Royal Farms and Friske Farms for fresh produce and delicious PIES. We had a couple rainy days. The cabin had everything we needed as a group of 10 to keep busy on a rainy day from TV to games. If you're looking for a peaceful vacation away from the city, this is the place!
