BJ's Retreat Summary:

Summary:
BJ's RETREAT - 2 Bedrooms, 1 bath.  This home sleeps 8-9, which includes the unfinished bunk house. Sitting on the east side of Torch Lake, just a couple miles north of Alden.  This cottage is peaceful and offers a large yard featuring a fire pit for enjoying your s'mores, views of the lake and beautiful sunsets.  Relax while talking about what a great day you had or making plans for the next day's fun.  The cottage does sit back from the water a ways.  Water access is about 300-400 feet south of the house. (You cannot see the water access from the cottage.) There is a mooring anchor to tie up a boat which also cannot be seen from the house.  Don't have a boat, no problem. There are several marinas in the area that rent a variety of watercraft and we are happy to provide you with information and phone numbers for these.  The fact that this cottage is situated between the towns of Alden and Bellaire gives you easy access to both.  In Alden, you can grab an ice cream cone, visit some of the quaint shops, hike at Coy Mountain Preserve, wine taste at Vista Ridge Winery, grab some muffins for breakfast at the Muffin Tin or have breakfast, lunch or dinner at the Torch Lake Beer Company.  In Bellaire, there are also some neat shops, a movie theatre, Glacial Hills Natural Area for Mountain Biking and many options for dining.  Bellaire is also the original location of Short's Brewery, an award-winning Craft Brewery.  Enjoy a craft beer with your meal.  The food is as good as the beer.  Along these same lines, you are able to visit Bee Well Meadery and do some tasting or Mammoth Distillery for a taste of locally made liquor.  The house has 2 bedrooms, 1 bath.  There is a separate unfinished bunk house, with sleeping for the youngsters with 2 sets of twin bunk beds.
A reasonable way to stay. It offers you a large open back yard that runs along the water and you have your own water frontage just a short walk from the house.  
With owner's approval, they may allow 1 dog (50lbs or less). If you are bringing a pet, they are to be crated if you are not in the home with them.
We do require that our renters be at least 25 years of age. 
Sorry no air conditioner. NO SMOKING

4th of July holiday

My family from Boston joined us at this lovely property for the holiday. It is very spacious and private. We anchored our pontoon at their moor anchor and used the dock for loading/unloading. This was our 1st time using a moor anchor, it was a different experience but successful. We were able to see our pontoon from the dining room window. The home is also spacious. The bunk house is not attached. No a/c meant we needed to be very diligent about opening windows/doors and closing curtains throughout the day. The weather was mid 80s. Cool nights were helpful! Some fans were available. The kitchen was well stocked with basics. The yard was nicely lit with solar lights. The floor tile in the hall needs to be replaced for safety. The hardware on the beds needs to be tightened to ward off the noisy squeaks of the beds through the night. While the bunk house had to be well vented for comfort, the mattresses were actually more comfortable than those in the house. While I expected to pay a premium price for this place on the lake for a holiday, I still find it shocking and very inconvenient when linens are not included, especially with standard cleaning fees attached. The property management and owners were very attentive and accommodating for a couple unexpected minor issues we had arise. The property is 15 min by boat north of the sand bar and 10 min south of the Dockside restaurant. We enjoyed visiting both places. Thanks for the memories and sharing your property with us!

Torch lake

We absolutely loved this place! The kids thought the bunk house was the “coolest thing ever”…we had a wholesome time enjoying the beautiful lake, taking our kayaks out on the water, and enjoying one another. I like how this house isn’t a rich looking mansion….I liked how it felt like you were walking into great grandmas to grab a bite to eat and hit the water!! We appreciate those things in places! Don’t change a thing! It was perfect!!! I also adored all the artwork painted by the original owner. How cool that a railroad ran through the property years and years ago! Our children enjoyed unplugging and being with one another! Thanks for having us! We hope you will have us back!
Breathtaking sunsets!
Fire by sunset! S’mores for the win!
How cool is this bunkhouse? Mom this is the coolest thing ever!

Very enjoyable stay

Clean and quiet. Close to lots of thing to see and do but very nice if you just wanted to relax. I liked the info packet we were given when we arrived, very nice touch. Also ate at the Dockside just down the road, good food.

Great and Not so Great

Great location and we did enjoy our stay however there is no AC and it was hot--we ended up leaving early rather than stay the last night in the heat. Also the place could use some maintenance and updating. Bathroom lav needs replacement, grille was too dirty to use, salvation army furniture and general maintenance was not up to standards we expect. That said, we did enjoy ourselves because it is a great location on a fabulous lake. Just have reasonable expectations if you rent this place.

Perfect Retreat

We needed a place to unplug and enjoy nature. This home is clean, simple and perfect for a long weekend retreat. It's on Torch Lake with a beautiful view from the dining room window. We enjoyed evening breezes and quick trips into Alden. Thank you for a terrific weekend!

Lakeside was nice

It’s a cute house and lovely to have access to the water. The view from the dining table was beautiful. We didn’t use the fire pit but also a nice touch. I always list the negatives to help other renters. The bunk house had very little electric, and no heat. There’s no a/c anywhere but we don’t need it. There were no sheets (even fitted sheets), just big comforters. Check out is at 9 am which I’ve never heard of. King bed is very creaky when you move. With all the plus and minuses, I’d stay again.

Relaxing week on Torch Lake

We spent a week with family here. The house is as pictured, kitchen stocked with everything we needed and the view of the lake was gorgeous. It was very relaxing and we had a great time on the lake, golfing and exploring Traverse City and Bellaire.

Little piece of paradise

Although our weather didn’t cooperate until the day before we left, the house and property gave us a lot of room to spread out. The walk down to the lake and the view from the house were wonderful. The kitchen was full stocked with pots, pans and utensils.Thanks to the property management for the ease of check in and communication prior to our arrival.

Torch Lake Cottage

The property company was fantastic to work with. Beautiful Torch Lake can’t be beat! And the home and it’s ground were perfect for our small immediate Family wedding. Plenty of sleeping places, room to play games outside, a large fireplace with benches, a mooring to bring our boat down and the vest view in town. Sunset wedding was perfect!

Beauitful views of the lake

We really enjoyed our stay at BJ's retreat. The house itself was clean and comfortable. Everything was as advertised. The location is ideal and the view of the lake is amazing from the fire pit and dock. Would definitely recommend and return for a rustic and relaxing trip to Torch Lake!
