About this cabin rental

YOUR NORTHERN MICHIGAN ESCAPE

Welcome to The Wild Pine, a thoughtfully renovated 4-bedroom cabin built for group getaways near Torch Lake. Whether you're planning a family trip, milestone birthday, ski weekend, wedding weekend, wine country escape, or summer lake vacation, this is the kind of place where the house becomes part of the trip.

Mornings begin with coffee in the cathedral-ceiling great room, sunlight filtering through the pines. Some of the group heads to Torch Lake's turquoise water just minutes down the road, while others take over the indoor golf simulator or fire up Pac-Man, Big Buck Hunter, and air hockey in the arcade. Afternoons bring pool table tournaments in the sports bar, cedar sauna sessions, and snack prep in the chef's kitchen.

Evenings settle in by one of the two fireplaces or disappear into the hidden speakeasy, popcorn machine running, 100" screen lit, and your group together. By midnight, the hot tub crew is out under the stars, the karaoke lounge is at full volume, the fire pit is glowing in the yard, and a poker tournament has taken over upstairs.

Rain, snow, or sunshine, The Wild Pine is designed to be the cabin you do not want to leave.

Everything was set up real nice and completely clean. Nice amenities. There was a few issues we had with the property:1. Hot water flow was very inconsistent and would go from lukewarm to warm.2. Could have had a better quality dish soap, it was very difficult to clean cookware, no grease cutting.3. Could have used additional kitchen towels.4. Water pressure needs to be increased.5. Could have used some throw blankets for watching movies.I seen there is some work being done on the property, I could be of help in this area as well as correcting the issues mentioned. Our daughter lives very close. The space worked very well for our dinners and lunchin. Thanks,Jim

Wow, it’s hard for me to describe exactly how we felt during our short stay, but all I can say is that is was magical. This was such a fun place for my friends to stay for a weekend getaway during the holidays. The town is charming and the stay equally so.

I recently had the pleasure of staying at this lovely property for a short weekend getaway, and it was exactly what I needed for a peaceful and rejuvenating break. From the moment we arrived, we were struck by how serene the area is—surrounded by nature, yet close enough to explore local spots. The house itself was a true gem—cozy, inviting, and impeccably clean.What I loved most was the feeling of being at home. The living room was so comfortable that we spent hours just drinking, chatting and playing board games. The kitchen was well-stocked, which made it easy to prepare food (bring Baileys!) The outdoor patio was another highlight. We spent some time in the evening enjoying wine as the sun set over the lake. Looking forward to experiencing more activities on the lake when the weather is warmer.The hosts were incredibly thoughtful and responsive. They made sure we had everything we needed and even gave us great recommendations for local hikes and activities. It’s clear they care deeply about creating a welcoming space for guests. For a relaxing weekend away, this property was perfect and I would absolutely return!
