Long Lake Getaway - Hot Tub - Fireplace - Pet Friendly - Close to Alpena

Escape to northern Michigan’s quiet season at Long Lake Escape—your cozy Alpena getaway perfect for fall color tours, winter retreats, and peaceful lakefront relaxation. Located just across the street from beautiful Long Lake and only minutes from downtown Alpena, this updated 2-bedroom, 1-bath home offers everything you need for a comfortable off-season stay.

Wake up to serene lake views and crisp northern Michigan mornings while enjoying fresh coffee or espresso from the Keurig or Nespresso machines. Inside, you’ll find two warm and inviting bedrooms with plush double beds, a fully equipped kitchen for home-cooked meals, and a bathroom stocked with fresh linens—ideal for unwinding after a chilly day outdoors.

The private backyard truly shines in the off-season. Relax in the steaming hot tub, cozy up around the fire pit, or grill a hearty meal while enjoying the quiet and calm of the lakeside atmosphere. Whether you’re watching the fall foliage, stargazing on clear winter nights, or simply savoring the peaceful surroundings, this space is made for relaxation.

Long Lake’s shoreline offers scenic walks year-round, and Alpena’s off-season charm is just a short drive away. Explore local trails, museums, lighthouses, winter hikes, and Lake Huron viewpoints without the summer crowds. This rental is also pet-friendly (with prior approval), so your furry companions can join your fall or winter adventure.

Whether you're planning a quiet work-from-home retreat, a romantic weekend, or a relaxing getaway after the busy summer season, Long Lake Escape provides the perfect blend of comfort, privacy, and northern Michigan charm during Alpena’s peaceful off-season. Reach out for seasonal discounts.

The host provided welcome treats for us and a toy for our dog. We felt very welcome. We had all the supplies we would ever need as well as robes for using the spa. The spa was warm and ready for us, no warm up time needed which normally can take many hours. Temperature controls worked great.
