3rd Most Beautiful Lake in the World! South end sand bar is a popular place to anchor down with a boat or pontoon and enjoy the crystal clear water and sand bar. Popularized by Kid Rock’s “All Summer Long” song, this was a summer hangout for the Detroit native which he eludes to in his lyrics.
Public Beach Access is very limited but renting a pontoon from Torch River Marina or Luhrs Landing is the way to see this lake. Take a trip to Alden via boat (or car) to walk around this quaint village to buy some spices at Alden Mill House and grab some ice cream while on shore.
Head up to Clam River and eat at the favorite lakeside restaurant Dockside, which provides amazing outside seating to watch the blazing sunsets over the turquoise and aqua blue hues of Torch Lake!
A further drive up the east coast and you will find this small and quiet public access point.
