Enjoy the panoramic views from the grassy yard or while sitting around the fire pit with family. A rustic 1950s log cabin that has been tastefully updated with today’s modern finishes and amenities. Water is the backdrop of life in Bellaire. Swimming, boating, fishing and beach-combing are summer activities that give way in the fall to driving tours along some of Michigan’s most scenic back roads. Centrally located allowing access to activities all year long. Check-in time: 4 pm Check-out time: 11 am The space: This is an original log cabin that uses a well for water and has a septic system. We ask that you please be mindful of what goes down the drain. Most of the cabin was recently refurbished; however, it still maintains its original charm and some of the original fixtures. It is well kept and clean but it is on the lake so please do not be surprised to see an occasional bug inside. There are two 30-foot docks that are available during the stay for personal or rental boats. Kayaks are also available for use with lifejackets provided. This is a dog friendly cabin and even though we do a thorough job cleaning, if you are allergic to dogs this may not be the best option for you. The cabin sits on a double lot, so there is room for parking both vehicles and trailers in the yard next to the cabin. The cabin is located about a mile east of Torch Lake and provides access via water. ## Property amenities ### Beach - Beach towels ### Internet - Available in the cabin: Free WiFi ### Parking and transportation - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Electric kettle - Microwave - Oven - Paper towels - Refrigerator - Stovetop - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 2 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided - Sofa bed ### Bathroom - 1 bathroom - Shower - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Fireplace - Living room ### Entertainment - DVD player - Games - Smart TV with cable/satellite channels - Video library ### Outdoor areas - Barbecue grill - Firepit - Garden - Outdoor furniture - Patio - Yard ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - Pet friendly - Welcoming dogs only - One pet total (up to 50 lbs per pet) ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoking not allowed ### Location highlights - On a lake - On the waterfront ### Things to do - Boat - Kayak - Water sports equipment ### Safety features - No carbon monoxide detector or gas appliances (host has indicated there are no carbon monoxide detectors or gas appliances on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - First aid kit - Fire extinguisher ### General - Garden ## Similar properties ![Paper towels, dining tables, kitchen islands](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/79000000/78500000/78493700/78493690/392a6048.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Pure Michigan Awaits! 10 minutes to Lake Michigan, 2 min. to Intermediate Lake Central Lake - Washer - Dryer - Free WiFi - Air conditioning 10 Exceptional 1 review [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-12-23&endDate=2025-12-24&selected=78493690&PinnedHotelID=78493690&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Property grounds](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/67000000/66890000/66885100/66885016/82417d9a.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Clam Lake Waterfront Cottage Bellaire - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Free WiFi 10 Exceptional 29 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-12-23&endDate=2025-12-24&selected=66885016&PinnedHotelID=66885016&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Microwave, oven, stovetop, paper towels](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/117000000/116790000/116783700/116783679/d4df63fc.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Charming Lakefront Cottage with WiFi and AC Kalkaska - Washer - Dryer - Free WiFi - Air conditioning 8.0 Very good 1 review [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-12-23&endDate=2025-12-24&selected=116783679&PinnedHotelID=116783679&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Property grounds](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/110000000/109600000/109594300/109594279/ef7f3a7c.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Studio pet friendly condo free pool pass Bellaire Shanty Creek Summit Village Bellaire - Pool - Hot tub - Kitchen - Pet-friendly 9.6 Exceptional 10 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-12-23&endDate=2025-12-24&selected=109594279&PinnedHotelID=109594279&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Fridge, microwave, oven, stovetop](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/91000000/90110000/90109800/90109770/ad4ed3b4.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Warm & inviting retreat with a washer/dryer, central AC, fast WiFi, & gas grill Bellaire - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Air conditioning 8.8 Excellent 9 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-12-23&endDate=2025-12-24&selected=90109770&PinnedHotelID=90109770&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Property grounds](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/82000000/81500000/81491900/81491896/ef2af293.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### TORCH LAKE WATERFRONT HOME AVAILABLE AUG 17-24 AND AUG 24-31, 2024!!

The location is perfect because you are close to Torch, yet you can also take the channel into Lake Bellaire if the weather is too windy or cool. We love that we can dock our boat on ther water! The cabin has several lovely areas to just relax and watch the boats go by. We booked it again for next year! ##### Sandy K. Stayed 7 nights in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### John C.

Jun 9, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great Lake Front Property Although the cabin is tiny, I have to say it is very well maintained, organized with just enough essentials and clean which I am picky about. The outdoor property is beautiful as well and made our weekend the property is well groomed and again clean and well maintain. We are a family of 4 and my husbands and sons are over 6ft tall cabin was still comfortable. We did spend the majority of our time outdoors and on the boat that we rented at the Marina down the road. Great place for a long weekend. ##### mich m. Stayed 4 nights in May 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Aubrey S. Jul 5, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great Yard Property is amazing and the reason we chose this rental. Sandy beach, multi level yard with lots of chairs, tables, benches and hammock. Dock available to use for our boat along with room to store the trailer on the property. Very close to restaurants in Alden and Bellaire including Dockside right up the road. Downsides were the size of the bathroom and lack of air conditioning. We actually left 1 day early, it had been in the 90's all week and even with the available fans we just couldn't cool the place down to sleep comfortably at night. Not even a decent breeze off the water. Overall nice stay during the day when outside on the beach and water. ##### Aubrey S. Stayed 4 nights in Jun 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### MATTHEW G.
