Spacious vacation home on large private wooded lot on crystal clear Hubbard Lake
Lovely 5 bedroom vacation home with over 100ft of frontage on beautiful Hubbard lake. Tucked in on a small private wooded road you'll find this cozy yet spacious cottage.
Cottage sleeps 10-11 and includes beach front fire pit with plenty of seating, viewing patio overlooking the lake, dock with a bench for fishing and ladder into the water, 3 kayaks, paddle board, life jackets, large raft and other toys. Other amenities include a ceramic grill for traditional hardwood charcoal cooking or smoking, big screen TV and more. There is a Level 2 Electric Vehicle Charger in the garage that you can use as well.
Enjoy the lake, rent a boat at the local Marina, go hiking, try-out beautiful White Pines golf course, visit local restaurants including Churchhill Point Inn which is just a 5 minute walk from the cabin.
Hubbard lake is a huge (nearly 9,000 acres) crystal clear spring fed lake with a rocky shore but hard sand bottom starting 10-15 feet off shore. Lake can be accessed off the shore; however, accessing the lake from the dock and wearing aqua shoes are recommended. Lake is great for swimming with a shallow depth (<6ft) for over 100 yards in front of the house. The lake has great fishing too with the deepest fishing hole (over 80 ft!) about 200 yards directly in front of the cottage.
There are two boat launches near the home (North and East). There are two anchors down with buoys, and two small boat/jet ski sized hoists next to the dock that renters can use.
Lakeside city of Alpena just 30 minutes north for shopping and other activities.

Thank you so much for the review. We look forward to hosting you again next year!
Other than 2 separate power outages and may flys (which are both out of their control) it was a great spot for our family of 9. Had everything we needed. We were not able to get either grill to work but made the fire pit work for grilling. Had everything we needed and lake and dock were perfect for swimming!

Thanks for the feedback Katie.
Apologize about the May flies and power outages but glad you enjoyed your time.
Related to the grill, we do check the gas grill before every renter to ensure it is operational. If we are fortunate enough to host you in the future, always feel feee to reach out and we can walk you through the process.
Hope to host you again. Thanks again for the review. : )
Very nice property right on the lake. Booking and payment and communication were great. Large rooms and big family room. We plan on staying here again!!
Beautiful property, great location. Host was very friendly and responsive. The family really enjoyed it. Note that there are no curtains or shades on the windows with the exception of one living room window.
The house is very comfortable and the lake was great. Some trouble with the air conditioning/power but resolved to our satisfaction. We had a great time. Thanks!

Fun stay on Hubbard Lake
We had a lovely week at Hubbard Lake in this house!
Overall it was very clean and comfortable, and had great features that we really enjoyed. The only issues we encountered were that the digital check-in process didn't work and was pretty stressful to deal with after a long drive with little kids. Also, there were no curtains in the bedrooms, which was a bit of a problem for privacy and sleep, but I'm sure that the owners will be getting on that soon.
The location of the home was perfect. We enjoyed all of the amenities, especially the kayaks, beach area, bonfire, and yard games. We appreciated all the activities the home had to offer. We felt the home was spacious for all 11 of us. We also appreciated that the owners ordered and installed carbon monoxide detectors prior to our stay. The beds were comfortable, and we enjoyed having three nice bathrooms and 5 bedrooms. Communication with the owners was easy. Instructions were well communicated as well.
We do feel that the home could have been a little more clean upon arrival. It was pretty dusty and the showers had hair and dirt in them. I also had sand in my bed. The fridge/freezer was also a little yucky.
The air conditioner is installed in one of the bedrooms. The remaining rooms got pretty warm at night. This is an older home, so beware that the stairs are very steep which was a bit of an issue for the youngest and oldest guests.
Overall we enjoyed our stay and had a great time!

Thanks for the feedback Laura. We will take these concerns up with our cleaning team asap. Also, 2 additional air conditioners have been installed since your visit. Thanks again.
Thank you for sharing your spot on the lake with us. This place was a nice spot for our 5 night stay. We had two families that stayed, which included a small child. The layout of the home worked great for our group. We were disappointed to be notified about the broken AC the night before our expected arrival, as that was one feature we made sure to verify when booking a house in the month of August. Additionally, we discovered a few items in need of repair on the property, if intended guests include family/children: Wooden swing shown in property pictures was broken and unusable, dining room chair had seat broken through which was covered by a seat cushion, wooden panel on front of lake garage was partially coming off with nails/sharp wood exposed. Also there was no fire extinguisher or readily available smoke or carbon monoxide alarms. Not deal breakers that required immediate attention by the host, but they may consider improving safety in these couple of areas. It was a nice spot. The lake was great. The lake trampoline was a hit. And the amenities and toys/kayaks/life vests included in the lake garage were all greatly appreciated. We did have a great time!

About the host
Hosted by Bix Beaton
We live downstate in the Detroit suburbs. We specifically chose this lake for its clarity and seclusion. Its just chill. The lake is not crowded with boats and the area is not pretentious.
Why they chose this property
We chose this area of the lake and Oak street because of its seclusion, wooded yards, frontage (100ft+), and its proximity to 2 boat launches, downtown, and Churchhill Point (great restaurant steps away fromn the house).
What makes this property unique
This lakehouse is unique because its a 5 bedroom house - not so much a cabin. Its perfect for family get togethers and large gatherings. Having a big family this was an important consideration. We hope you enjoy this home with your family.
