Family Vacay
Our stay in Alpena was great! The house had a fabulous layout and everyone had plenty of space to spread out. The deck out to the dock and lake was wonderful. The kids enjoyed paddle boarding (we brought our own, although there is one available onsite) and floating in the lake. The adults enjoyed the deck and beautiful view of the lake. Our family would definitely stay again!

Review
The house and location were great and met our needs well. The host was quick to answer the phone and took care of most requests quickly. The only thing that could have been improved was there wasn't enough garbage bags, kleenex and toilet paper for the number of people who were staying here. But except for that it was a great stay. Thanks

Fun annual family vaca week memories!
House was great for our family of 5 adults and 2 kids. Long Lake is always our first choice and this property’s sandy Lake-bottom and very gradual way it gets deeper makes it safe and fun. We lucked out with the weather, which always helps.

It was a great cottage, our kids had a blast with the beach right out front. Plenty of rooms and bathrooms and eating space for all of us. Felt like we had plenty of room with 2 kids and 4 adults. Would 100% stay here again!
