Summary: The cottage was unique and full of family history, perfect location and fabulous autumn weather! The place can use a good cleaning, lots of cob webs, spiders, mice traps And dust, dust, dust!

Summary: There are two separate living quarters. A "shed" that has two bunks beds and a queen bad and a main house. The main house was immaculate- very nice. BUT if you're going to use the shed, everyone that slept in there was covered in flea bites by the time we left. AND unfortunately, they brought them home in their suitcase, so we're dealing with them in our house as well now. Torch Lake is absolutely amazing and the beach access and the fire pit were great! We made a lot of great memories.

Summary: We had the best time at the Shingle Shack! The house was spacious and comfortable. It is has a very homey feel to it. The kitchen had everything we needed to prepare meals. There is a great little market within a few minutes drive that we v bought all of our groceries at. The kayaks were fun to take out into the lake. The beach fire pit is going to be hard to top for all future vacation rentals. We did not use the bunkhouse during our stay. The lake is absolutely beautiful.Perfect for swimming, boating, etc. Highly recommend!
