The coffee maker doesn’t work. The doors upstairs are very noisy. The couch is difficult to get off and on. We love the place regardless!

Thanks for ypur feedback Cheryl! We had no idea the coffee maker was having issue, but have a brand new Keurig duo there now, thanks to your note alerting us to the issue. 😊 So glad you loved the place regardless! 💕
We had a great weekend in Alpena, in town celebrating a wedding. The house was perfect in every way! Great location, perfect size rooms, clean and fully furnished! Would highly recommend and would stay again!
The host was incredibly helpful and kind. The house was beautifully redone. The beds were comfortable. The location was excellent. I would definitely stay here again!
The house was perfect for our family. Everything was decorated very cute. It was very clean and the location was perfect for us. If we are ever in the area again, we would love to stay again!
The space was perfect for our family. Sufficient dishes, towels, etc. the beds were comfortable as was the living room space. Questions were answered immediately. Easy to check in/out. Will definitely stay at this property again!
This home was beautiful! There were six of us women that stayed here for our VFW State pool tournament. So much room for us all and two bathrooms was great. We would definitely stay here again.
We had such an amazing time at this property. Jennie was so kind and very attentive. The home is decorated beautifully and in a great location. We will most certainly be back next year!
The property was very clean and the location was great with a short walk to downtown and the beach/parks. I traveled with my 11 month son so it was great to have a crib in one of the rooms!
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.

About the host
Hosted by Jennie Handrich ~ Handrich Properties
Hi! We're Jennie and Josh, owners of Handrich Properties. We've been married for 20 years and have made our home here in Alpena. We love going on adventures with our 3 kids, like biking, camping, and travelling the US.
I (Jennie) owned my own custom cake business for 13 years, and love meeting new people! I now work at our awesome local gym, and love running . I'll be running my third marathon this summer.
Josh is a real estate agent and loves basketball and playing hobby board games. One of his current favorites is Terraforming Mars. He has a vast collection of games, and is always happy to loan them out if you're staying with us and looking for a new game to try.
Our properties have been beautifully renovated and are just minutes from the beach. You will have the entire home to yourself. We live very close by and are happy to help with anything you might need during your stay, providing we are not out of town at the time.
