Summary: My family (including to early 20s daughters) loved our stay in the Nutcracker Suite on Torch Lake. So relaxing and perfect view and access to the lake. The hosts, Bob and Shirley, live on site and made sure we had everything we needed. This was also one of the cleanest, well kept properties we’ve stayed in.
Mary Anne S. Aug 14, 2024 02:13:05 AM
Summary: The Nutcracker Suite is lovely and well-maintained. It sits on a very pretty piece of lakefront property, tucked into the woods. The house is well-equipped and the owners Shirley and Bob were helpful, informative and concerned that we have a wonderful vaction. They even have a cabinet full of games and toys that our grandson loved. We hope to go back!

Summary: This was the perfect place for me and my husband. A lovely cottage, beautiful view and quiet neighborhood. Great for a little R&R, but with plenty of things to do in the surrounding areas when we wanted to venture out. The owners residing on the property were very kind and helpful with their knowledge of the area and offering suggestions. We would definitely stay here again and have already talked about a return trip next fall. I would definitely recommend to others looking for a getaway on beautiful Torch Lake.
