What makes this property unique
This is our family home growing up. Just renovated inside and with the view of the river cleared our home is ready for others to enjoy. My family uses it as a quiet get away and for large family gatherings. With a fully finished basement complete with kitchen, two bedrooms a TV room and pool table with another TV there is plenty of space for family members to spread out. Outside there a a spacious yard with adjoining trails for hikes in the woods. Backyard has a fenced in area to keep children and dogs away from the river. The Thunderbay River is not particularly deep along our property line and has a sand and gravel bottom. It's very refreshing in the summer but if you prefer a beach then Lake Huron is a short 15 minute drive away in Alpena, MI. Alpena has much to offer with shops and restaurants, a large grocery store, golf, a marina, diving and sunken boat expeditions and museum.
