Beachfront cabins, a full-service restaurant, and private boat slips — everything you need for a lake getaway, right on the water.
Each cabin sits steps from the beach, with large windows framing the lake. Simple, comfortable, and designed for slow mornings.
One-bedroom cabin with a private deck overlooking Torch Lake. Queen bed, full kitchen, and a bathroom with rain shower.
Spacious two-bedroom layout ideal for families. Living area with fireplace, full kitchen, and direct beach access from the patio.
Our largest cabin, with floor-to-ceiling windows, a king bed, and an open-plan living space. Steps from the sandbar and boat slips.
Seasonal, local, and served with a view. Our kitchen focuses on straightforward comfort food — fresh salads, grilled sandwiches, and a rotating selection of local brews and wines.
Whether you're grabbing a coffee before a day on the lake or settling in for a sunset dinner, the restaurant is open to guests and visitors alike.
Torch Lake is known for its clear water and relaxed pace. Here's how to make the most of it.
Two private boat slips are available for guests. Torch Lake's deep water and clear visibility make it ideal for cruising, fishing, and watersports.
Our private beach and the famous sandbar offer calm, shallow water perfect for swimming, wading, and letting kids play safely.
Trails around the Torch Lake area wind through Michigan pine forests and along shoreline bluffs. Gear up at the lodge and explore.
Torch Lake is stocked with bass, pike, and perch. Cast from the shore, a rented boat, or one of our slips — sunrise runs are unforgettable.
Walk or boat to the nearby sandbar for a quiet afternoon on the island. Pack a lunch and make it a day of its own.
Sometimes the best plan is no plan. Lounge chairs on the beach, a cold drink at the bar, and the lake stretching out in every direction.
Torch Lake is often called the "Miami Beach of the Midwest" for its crystal-clear water. The Sandbar Lodge sits on its western shore, about 20 minutes from downtown Rapid City.
