🌲 YOUR NORTHERN MICHIGAN ESCAPE ✨ The day at Wild Pine moves at your pace. 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, 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. Whether you're here for a milestone birthday, family reunion, ski weekend, or wine country escape, rain, snow, or sunshine, Wild Pine is the cabin you don't want to leave. 📍 Just 2 minutes to Torch Lake. 15-20 min to Shanty Creek/Schuss Mountain skiing. 45 min to Traverse City wine country.
