Host profile image
Hi!
My name is Patti and I was born and raised in Alpena, but lived elsewhere for most of my adult life. 16 years ago I moved back home and loving it here. There's so much to do and it relaxing and friendly. I spent my days hiking through the nearby trails, riding my bike on the Noreasten Bike trail or kayaking on the lake.
