Fantastic property!!! We had 4 adults and had plenty of room. Outdoor amenities are fabulous. We stayed over a Monday through Wednesday and the lake was so quiet. We swam and kayaked without any worry. I highly recommend this property and will look for it first on my next trip to Alpena! Thank you!

We really enjoyed our stay at this cottage. It was plenty spacious for the two of us. The cottage description states it sleeps 6, but it didn't seem that the couch converted to a bed, but perhaps it does, or maybe there is a blow up bed, if needed. Otherwise, I would say the description was very accurate. The cottage was clean, neat, cute, and was wonderful!

The place was beautiful, contacting the hosts was so easy. Rained the whole time I was there but place was comfortable. Beds were so comfy. Place is very private and right on the water. Has a really nice dock. Plenty of outdoor chairs off the back porch with a table. Very cute
