Summary: Everything was great. Spacious and comfortable. The jacuzzi is a great touch to the home. Steps from the Thayer lake made for great memories in the water with the kids. The kitchen was a perfect size ! Would highly recommend staying here if you’re looking to visit Torch Lake. Only 15 mins from Torch Lake sandbar.
