This was a wonderful spot for a weekend away! I'd recommend Woody's for an awesome breakfast (I'm guessing their other food is good, too)! The lake is beautiful, and this location had every comfort of home!

Awesome cottage on Grand Lake

This was our second time renting out this cottage and it is just so peaceful and it has everything you need. This lake was my childhood vacation place so it makes me so happy to have such an amazing place to rent on the same lake. I highly recommend staying here.

Awesome Vacation!

The house was amazing and the lake was beautiful. We caught smallmouth bass and perch right off the dock. Enjoyed eating on the patio and a fire by the lake in the evening. Will definitely comeback for another stay.

Clean and comfortable cottage on a beautiful lake.

Makes a great base camp and/or relaxing getaway. Clean and well stocked, if you forget something don't worry. Plenty to do within a short travel and Alpena with everything is only 20-30 minutes away.The hosts are amazing and the cottage is set up perfectly. The sunrise over Applegate island is picture perfect.

This is a GRAND getaway!

We can't say enough good about this home! We loved it, was perfect for us. Very clean (which is important, especially when most owners charge a fee for cleaning).Had everything you would need for a great vacation. Definitely felt like a home away from home. Will look for this place again in the future.

A great mix of fun and relaxation

The Grand Getaway was just what we needed for some fun and relaxation. The lake is beautiful and very clean. The house had everything we needed and was comfortable and clean. It was far away enough from everything to feel private and secluded, while also being close enough to everything to enjoy exploring, eating out, bike trails, beaches, etc. Highly recommend.
