One-of-a-Kind Lakefront Torch Lake Lodge - 4 Floors of Luxury

“Quiet Spirit” is more of an experience than a rental property. It’s a home, a lodge, a luxury hotel, and an outdoorsman’s paradise all rolled into one. Torch Lake is one of the world’s most beautiful lakes—renowned for its crystal-clear waters—and this 12,000 square-foot manor provides access to that lake in a way you can’t find anywhere else.

Situated on the shores of Torch Lake, Quiet Spirit gives you the space to truly enjoy your vacation with your friends and family. There are four floors, each with its own bespoke craftsman details, allowing everyone to relax in total comfort, with every amenity you can think of.

There are eight unique bedrooms, all featuring custom themes and woodwork designs, which can easily sleep 19. In addition to the 10 bathrooms (featuring steam showers and bidets), the home is outfitted with a terrific outdoor spa whirlpool and an indoor sauna.

The sheer scope of Quiet Spirit becomes apparent once you walk outside and stand on the meticulously outfitted decks, right on the edge of majestic Torch Lake. Enjoy the idyllic surroundings as you lounge in the high-end outdoor furniture, grill out under the sun, and bask in Michigan’s splendor. Moor your boat to the extensive docks or just sit on their edge and dangle your feet into the lake’s Caribbean-like waters. Quiet Spirit's dock comes equipped with a 6,000 lb capacity pontoon boat hoist, which can take most pontoons up to 27 feet in length. Additionally, we offer a mooring line for your use as well.

Quiet Spirit brings a level of custom comfort that you can’t find anywhere else in Northern Michigan. In every room, there is a touch-screen integrated media system—incorporating Sonos speakers and Apple TVs—that lets you play music or TV in every room of the house with the touch of a finger. You’ll spend hours in the truly awesome home arcade with its four pinball machines, three multicade arcade cabinets, bubble hockey table, and bar-top megatouch.

Want to have a movie night? Just step inside the HD home theater room with projection screen, sound system, and lush recliner seats. Looking forward to cooking a big vacation dinner? The main dining room seats 12 and you have your choice of two fully-stocked kitchens on different floors of the house—making the layout ideal for vacationing with large groups. Need to work out after that big dinner? There is a full fitness room with elliptical, stationary air bike, home gym machine, weights, and more.

You will want for nothing while staying at Quiet Spirit—there is Wi-Fi, jetted tubs, two sets of washer/dryers, and eight fireplaces throughout the home… and that’s not all.

While Quiet Spirit has everything you need to cater to your every vacation whim, you will primarily be taken by the sheer artistry that went into making this custom home and how those hand-crafted details allow you to experience the legendary Torch Lake in a truly singular way. The views from Quiet Spirit, both inside and out, are spectacular.

Quiet Spirit is a short drive from wineries, Short’s Brewery, Elk Rapids, Traverse City, and local golf, hiking, and sporting locations. It’s in a perfect vacation location, but the true appeal of this 12,000-square-foot lakefront property is how it allows you to experience Torch Lake.

There are only a handful of “Spirit” homes in the Torch Lake area—all owned by the same family who have spent decades building some of the most astonishing vacation homes in Michigan. Don’t miss this rare chance to spend some time at Quiet Spirit and have the vacation of a lifetime.

Great long weekend stay
Property was great for a big group of guys looking to golf and do a lake day. Ample amount of space and privacy. No issues with the checkin process and were allowed in the house ~1 hour early. Property manager was around for 20-30 mins showing us all the ins & outs of the house and showing us how the tech worked

We had a wonderful time!!!
We had a wonderful time at your property. Our check in was smooth and Cody was very responsive when we had questions. We had smores around the campfire, enjoyed the jacuzzi, waterfront was beautiful, crafting on the back deck and played games. The kitchen was nice and big and had everything you could need. We would highly recommend staying here. Thank you!

Great House
Quiet Spirit was a lovely house with plenty of room for everyone. There was plenty to do with the pool table, ping pong, hot tub and video/arcade games, not to mention TVs in every room. A few small problems: dishwasher needs a part (but still works), bidets in most rooms did not work, hot water wasn't always available when people were showering at the same time. Other than that, the house was warm and comfortable and was one of the best we've ever stayed in.

Nice location on Torch Lake. Large property to accommodate a big group. Beautiful home but Disappointed with the overall cleanliness and lack of maintenance. So many awesome amenities but many of them didn’t function properly.

Quiet Spirit
The week stay at Quiet Spirit was great. There were a few issues but after a phone call to Alex, things were taken care of. So much space to spread out in, even with the 2 days of rain, we used the game room, movie room, exercise room, sauna & steam shower. Grocery store is 11 miles away. Torch lake was just the bluest blue/green. Everyone in our party, 12, just loved it. Would definitely would stay again. Make sure they explain the lighting and music system to your guest...it is complicated. Wish they had a bigger table to have dinner out on the deck...only sat 6. Could use another for the amount of people it slept. Fire pit outside was used a lot. There are 3 white lounge chairs on the dock, but we were glad we brought beach chairs to use as well. Plenty of dishes and silverware for large groups. Fully stocked kitchen. Had 3 Mr.Coffee pots and filters were there. All in all...GREAT STAY.

Annual Week at Torch
Our group of extended family has been visiting Torch Lake every summer for almost 15 years. This was our first time at Quiet Spirit and it was perfect! The many bedrooms with their own baths, kitchens in different levels, private decks, common living areas and the amazing game room were the perfect setting for our multi family group. The kids were constantly entertained by video games, ping pong and theatre, and we all enjoyed the hot tub, sauna and steam room. The boat and jet ski lifts were a huge bonus also. The house was clean, well kept up, and had amazing artwork, fixtures and lots of great extras, like ice makers on each floor. Everything was top of the line! Cody, and other staff, were very nice and professional, a great help, available to answer all of our questions ASAP. We had an amazing stay and hope to be back. Definitely recommend this property!

This property is stunning. Lots of space to spread out & the movie/game space is amazing! Ours kids loved it! The dock was great for us to have a boat rental. We had one issue during our stay and the management responded quickly and fixed the issue! Really enjoyed our stay with our family.

Nice home - needs a bit more TLC
Home is very nice. There were some mechanical issues that prevented us from enjoying every feature. With so many buttons everywhere, it would help to have switches labeled. The biggest issue was controlling the temperature. The thermostats that were supposed to control certain areas didn't actually control them. Property manager came by, but his instructions didn't have any affect on this. Lighting a fireplace was the most effective solution. Many people were either freezing, or hot, which was a biy frustrating. Overall the manager was receptive. Ice maker in main kitchen didn't work, so going up and down for ice when needed wasn't ideal. Property has nice views, though trees really need trimming to enjoy them, and still keep shade. With the listed tweaks, this home is a great place to have a big group under one roof. It would be fantastic if someone went through each room, documented every needed repair, and executed.
