Welcome to Driftwood on Torch River — a brand-new luxury retreat designed for relaxation, connection, and unforgettable Northern Michigan experiences. Perfectly positioned along the crystal-clear Torch River, this thoughtfully designed home blends upscale comfort with effortless access to one of Michigan’s most beautiful waterways.

The dock will accommodate up to a 25’ boat. Please contact the host if bringing a bigger boat or one with a deep draft (wake boat).
