Wedding Weekend

This was our 1st VRBO experience. We came to town for our daughter’s wedding; We needed lodging to accommodate 4 adults and 2 young children. This home was perfect for us, clean and cozy, well stocked. The 2 young children (ok, the adults too) enjoyed the toaster to make waffles by morning and the fire pit to make s’mores by night. We’ll likely return if our daughter continues to live in Alpena!

Charming updated two story house in a quiet neighborhood less than 3 minutes to restaurants, shopping, shipwreck tour boat, museums, and more. House was spotless, beds are comfy, couldn’t have asked for a nicer place to explore Alpena and surrounds. Would recommend!!

Great stay in a quaint neighborhood!

Our family of six, ages ranging from infant to grandparent, enjoyed our 5 night stay here! The house was clean and well stocked. Plenty of room for all of us! It was great to have a crib as we didn't need to haul our pack and play. The room with the crib does not allow for great temperature control for various reasons, but it did not seem to bother our little one. Just something to keep in mind. We always bring a couple of box fans, so that helped with air flow. The hosts were super friendly and communicated promptly - no issues just general discussion. The location is superb. We walked downtown frequently, and it's a quick and easy drive to the main attractions, as well as those off the beaten path. We would return!

Beautiful Home

We had a wonderful stay at this home. The hosts were very easy to work with and quick to respond. The home is beautifully decorated and very clean. The location to the beach is great and it was just a 25 minute drive to visit the Rockport State Recreation Area for fossil hunting. A great stay.

Fossil hunting in Alpena

My wife and I wanted to get away for awhile to relax and look for fossils. The home was very clean and the owners thought of everything. If you forgot something, they probably had it available in the house. Communication was top notch and again really appreciate the attention to details.

In town visiting family

We had a great stay over a holiday weekend. This house was great with small kids (assuming they can navigate stairs safely) with lots of games, books, and new toya to play with. Having a nursery with a crib was a huge plus because we didn’t have to bring a pack & play! Plenty of space when family came over for dinner & a movie.
