Cute and Cozy
This apartment was perfect for my husband and I while we were in town for a wedding. The location couldn't have been better and the apartment itself was clean and had everything we needed for a long weekend. We loved getting coffee every morning at the coffee shop on the corner. We would definitely stay again.

Great convenient apartment
Apartment is lovely - nicely appointed with good linens. Separate bedroom. Thoughtful items include: terrific book selection, games, writing pad, refrigerated cold water, nice dishes/glasses/mugs, plenty of dishes/utensils luggage rack, plenty of towels. Very convenient to terrific coffee and several really good restaurants. It is a bit noisy as people leave restaurant on Saturday night but they moved on quickly to their cars so not too disruptive (and not very late - 11 pm or so). MaryJane was really impressive in my dealings with her to fix an issue I had - easy to talk to you, cooperative, and eager to alleviate any issues. My only complaint is with VRBO’s piling on of “additional charges” but that comes with all listings, regrettably.

Cute place to stay
The apartment was super clean and close to restaurants, coffee shops, and beaches were only a short drive away. The people in Alpena were very friendly.

Perfect Location!
The location of this property is perfect! Located in the heart of Alpine, it is next to Red Brick which has the best food & spirits in town! Its a block from all shopping and across the street is Hopside (Brew Pub). The unit is clean and perfect for 2 people. Parking is easy and only a few blocks from the park & marina. My wife and I highly recommend you stay at this property when staying in Alpine. Enjoy!

Great loft, great location!
This loft was clean, comfortable, and fully stocked. There were even some drinks and snacks waiting for us when we got there. The bathroom had tons of fluffy towels, and the bed was very comfortable. The location was amazing—the building is nestled between a great coffee shop on one side and a great restaurant on the other. We were able to walk to everything we wanted to see in downtown Alpena. My only warning is that if anyone in your party wants to go to bed before 10pm, it is almost impossible because of all of the street noise. We had little kids, so it was a struggle.
