Alpena House | The Octagon - Country Chic-2-BR house on US-23N in N. Alpena/Presque Isle.

2 Bedroom House in Alpena

No Pets. Visiting the Alpena and Presque Isle areas, your adventure begins at this 2-bedroom Octagon-shaped house. The site of a former bank in the 80s, this unique property sleeps 4. The ground level is bright and cheery with 2 bedrooms and 1 bathroom (shower only), a Master with vaulted ceiling, a California king bed, 75" smart tv, and coffee station w/beverage fridge.
The 2nd BR has a queen bed and a 50" smart tv. The staircase leads to the lower level where the fully equipped kitchen and living areas are, including a washer/dryer and the original bank safe. It has the boardroom feel and is the perfect place to hide away after an afternoon of too much sun, concentrate on some work or take in a movie.
Each floor has multiple plugs and charging ports, and a 75" smart TV ready to stream using your services. (no cable) and the TV in the basement has a sound system. There is well water, but if you talk to the locals, it's the best there is! Something about the limestone-rich area. We leave a few bottled waters and 2 gallons for your ice and coffee needs. No Ice maker, we've got some trays, but you might want to pick some up. Fire pit with wood, a park style grill, bring your own charcoal and fluid. A circular, spacious gravel parking lot allows plenty of room for your boat trailers, no need to unhitch. Sorry, no RVs are allowed.
Right down the road from the new (2024) boat launch at Long Lake County Park.
Located on US23N, sure there is road noise and in the summer the rock haulers let you know they’re coming, but in the time where there’s no one whizzing by at 55, there is silence. There is seclusion with no neighbors nearby, except the guy diagonal across, in the summer he may be your DJ, but being in the middle of everything, there is seclusion with plenty of parking....and in the winter, well, it’s just magic!
With amenities like 2 natural gas furnaces, 2 AC units, Awesome Fiber WiFi, a full spice rack, air fryer, 2 coffee makers, blender, crockpot, Some ramen in the cupboard, towels, linens, games, books, plenty of places to lounge, and 2 refrigerators, our place will help you feel at home while you're traveling in Alpena and surrounding areas. Again, Sorry NO PETS.
Floor is foam and various carpets, please no shoes, if you want to keep the gravel and sand at bay. We also have a broom handy.

This space caters to the smokers and smoke friendly people who are in your group. The cleaning expectations would be like a hotel would have for their smoking rooms (other states and Native American hotels still have them) and it is like a tent, so we launder things regularly and do what we can to keep it fresh. It being outside helps and it never feels too smokey. The ceiling is 14 feet and there is good airflow. It's 30 feet from the Octagon and because there are no neighbors around, you can laugh and talk all night.
Thrown together with a Boho style with color and comfort in mind. I furnished it with second hand finds and Marketplace deals. This hothouse experience is just the way I like to enjoy my stay while I'm there, so why not let others have the same fun. A great add-on to give yourself more space to enjoy yourselves and give you an option from being cooped up in the house.
