Vacation rentals with a kayak in Alpena County

Getting off work and being able to relax with the view of the lake was a great highlight of our time here. Definitely a great place to stay.

Matthew’s place was the perfect rental for a work trip with my two dogs. The patio and backyard areas are fully fenced, and my dogs were able to safely run free. The house was very clean, with a well equipped kitchen, and extremely comfortable bed! The location was excellent too, very close to restaurants and shops. Will definitely be back on my next work trip, and also to vacation in Northern Michigan.

The photos do not do the property justice. It was extremely beautiful and peaceful and perfect for our group. The nature at night was amazing. I just wish we could have stayed for more than just a couple hours. Easy to find, accurate description, lovely place.

Emily was a gracious host, response very quickly before, during and after the stay. My family and I enjoyed the Airbnb it was enough room for us to enjoy. Highly recommend for a family to book if you need space and to be in the center of Alpena this is the place for you. It has everything you need for your stay. Thank you again Emily for your wonderful service

Great place and super host! We’ve stayed here a few times now and it’s always enjoyable.

The peace and quiet of Beaver Lake exceeded our expectations. Awesome place to get away for a weekend. The house had more than enough space and everything was in perfect order. Would not hesitate to recommend this spot for an up-north getaway!

Jade was a great host. The kitchen was fully stocked with everything I needed. She even had some canned, boxed and other sealed items. The bed, pillows and bedding were very comfortable. All the supplies needed in a well-lit bathroom, including Ibuprofen! The grounds were lovely with lake reflecting the beautiful fall colors. I had a doe, and her fawn come up to the front yard every morning, which was cool. I would suggest making sure all of the front porch lights work. I arrived late and the extra lighting would have been helpful. Having blue refactors to indicate where the driveway was would have been helpful as well, because of all of the leaves and no overhead lighting. I would stay at her place again and would recommend it to friends or family!! :-)

Our family had a wonderful time at your lake house. House was immaculately clean and well put together. Outside landscaping and flowers were beautiful. The treehouse was a cool feature. Kids enjoyed the kayaks and board games. They even put their phones down. Everything was well thought of. Thank you for letting us stay at your place. The Johnson’s

Right on the water, which is exactly what we wanted. We LOVED the sun room and spent most of our time there just enjoying the view of Lake Huron. Even in early December, it was beautiful to look out at the lake and decompress from our regular lives. We came here for a weekend anniversary trip and it was a lovely getaway.

This was our second stay here and it was as pleasant as I remember it from the last time. Everything was great. The house has all the basic needs plus more. I love that they have canoes for the guests' to use and the lake location is perfect. Thanks again for a great stay!

This was our second time staying at this location and everything was excellent once again. There was ample room for our family of 6 and the home is equipped with so many fun activities for everyone. We all truly enjoyed every minute here. It feels like a home away from home and we love everything about it! Everything was extremely clean and Pete is a fantastic host. We will definitely be back!

I wish I could put into words how amazing this stay was! There were so many activities to do here, it was insane! I wish we had more time to enjoy them. It was very peaceful, kayaking down the river was a beautiful experience (definitely recommend water shoes, rocky bottom). They are also very accommodating for pets or for babies, have extra things just in case you forget something. 100000/10 would recommend to anyone!

We had a great stay at Mike's cottage. The cottage was clean and matched the posted photos exactly. We were very comfortable during out stay and enjoyed the view of the lake, especially when it was warm enough to sit outside and enjoy the fresh air. We very much appreciated Mike having a guest logon to a few basic streaming services that we could use. Really enjoyed the Depot restaurant and Northland Market at the corner of Beaver Lake Rd. where you turn to get to the lake/cottage., very convenient. Freshly made pies and cookies! Had the good fortune to see the aurora borealis late at night one evening, first time for us to see the lights, just added to the enjoyment of our vacation. Overall a great, comfortable stay, easy check in and check out, quiet location with a great view and met some local rabbits and deer. Looking forward to coming back to Mike's cottage when we come back to that area. Thanks for everything Mike!

We had a wonderful time staying here. In the perfect tucked away spot, the pond is very clean and beautiful and feels completely off the grid! The cabin is close enough to both Roger's City and Alpena that we made trips for dinner and to play some golf. Overall, a wonderful experience that made our up north getaway special!

second time staying. great place. looking forward to coming back every year
