3 Bedroom Cottage in Alden

A newly available gem. This wooded, 3-bedroom lake retreat is located on 100 ft of East Torch Lake waterfront, offering clear blue water, stunning sunsets and a perfect spot to enjoy bonfires on the beach, morning coffee on the deck and a sunset glass of wine.
The cottage is spacious and accessible with an open floor plan, fully equipped kitchen (with a new induction range and butcher block island) dining room perfect for large family gatherings. There is a full bathroom and bedroom (queen bed) on the first floor and 2 roomy bedrooms upstairs (2 full beds in one and 2 twin over full bunk beds and a twin in the other) each with it’s own en-suite full bathroom. All 3 bedrooms face the water, offering beautiful breezes and peaceful nights, listening to the waves. The property has Wi-Fi and is conveniently located near Clam River with easy access to a boat ramp, water sport rentals, and the famous Dockside, a great spot for a beer and burger, watching the boats go by. A 70’ dock and swimming platform offers you a place to tie up your water toys, or just laze in the sunshine. We just added a new washer and dryer for your convenience.
If you want to venture out, you are close to all the beauty and fun Northwest Michigan has to offer. Nestled between Traverse City and Charlevoix (30 miles each way) there are charming local shops and restaurants to explore as well as world class golfing, wineries and breweries, Lake Michigan beaches, hiking trails, and parks.
