All-Season Waterfront Home on SE Hubbard Lake!

Beautiful lake front cottage on a 15-home strip of the uniquely-desired Southeast shore of Hubbard Lake!

All-Season Waterfront Home Directly on Hubbard Lake

Time to relax at a whimsical year-round cottage on the desirable southeast shore of Hubbard Lake. Enjoy spectacular sunsets sipping a drink on a furnished lakeside deck; curl up with a book on the hammock in our shaded yard; or roast marshmallows at the fire pit with the kiddos.

A dock, with hoist, is available to bring personal boats or rentals (***Seasonal: May through September for dock & hoist). Additionally, a 5-seat pedal boat can be rented from us for $75, and two kayaks for $100 for the duration of your stay. (Pedal boat AND kayaks together for a discount of $150).

Our home is minutes from one of Hubbard Lake’s most popular sandbars (Sucker Creek), several restaurants, a general store, and only 30 minutes away from downtown Alpena. Between swimming, fishing, water sports, golfing, snow-mobiling, and hiking, there’s something here for any couple, family, or group of friends.

In town for family reunion

We enjoyed our stay—the cottage was clean and communication with the owner was great. The views of the lake from the deck were beautiful. Something to note when traveling with small children or elderly parents—the floors are very uneven and could possibly be a risk for falling.

A Slice of Heaven

This cottage was the perfect escape from the South’s endless Summer heat! We enjoyed the unobstructed view of beautiful Hubbard Lake, the breathtaking sunsets, star gazing and a nightly fire beside the lake. The cottage was super clean, is extremely well equipped kitchen-wise, and the beds super comfortable,….we didn’t want for a thing. Our host, Adam, was outstanding in his communications with us on the rare occasion we had a question. All in all we had a wonderful, relaxing time in this beautiful lake house! We will be back!

Small but nice

The cottage is very clean and nicely updated, and the location is spectacular with the easy lake access (less steep than most HL properties) and beautiful view. The kayaks and paddle boat were so much fun! The indoor spaces are much smaller than we expected, and there is no indoor dining table, which is fine if the weather makes eating on the deck feasible, but that wasn't always the case. Additionally, the house has several different "levels" where the floor goes up or down several inches from one room to the next, which were a real tripping hazard for the little kids and older folks in our group.

Nice!

Mostly great, but a couple cautions Kitchen well stocked and clean- small table but we ate outside on well shaded deck. Beautiful sunsets from the lawn under some great trees. Lake huge and felt like we had to ourselves with minimal boat traffic The dock a little rough and wobbly but owner said there was a storm and he was going to fix it soon There were threshold trip hazards inside property,but not a deal breaker, just be careful The lack of AC was not a big deal- the place is well shaded and insulated and did not get too hot inside (and it was not while we were there.) Visit the Alcona Brewhaus in Nearby Harrisville, the owner shared her passion for revitalizing area by bringing great beer and food at a place that had been vacant and she and her husband brought back to life. Rocky by shore, but ladder at end of dock allowed for better water access, and it was nice swimming. There were weeds, but they were like carpet and not slimy - water very clean. Great trip!!

Great place and gorgeous views!

I can’t say enough great things about this place! Hosts were excellent prompt communicators, sent clear details/instructions and they were available for any questions. The cottage itself was clean and you felt right at home. The evening sunsets over the water were gorgeous and we enjoyed the large deck overlooking the lake every day for meals, games and a kids area when we weren’t in the water. We had 4 adults and 3 little kids (5yrs, 2yrs, 1yr) and fit comfortably. Truly a perfect family getaway cottage!

Relaxing weekend

We had a great time during our stay. The cottage had everything you could need in the kitchen, bathroom, laundry, linens, etc. Very impressed and appreciative of that attention to detail (like a laundry line for all the wet towels and suits!). Easy communication with owners (both online and in included information binder). We’ve always been on the sunrise side of Hubbard Lake so the beautiful sunsets were a treat. Water is very shallow and lake floor is a mixture of sand, rocks, and some low weeds/plants - we wore crocs/water shoes and it wasn’t a problem at all. Very comfortable beds. The property has plenty of sun and shade throughout the day. We really enjoyed our stay!

Short and sweet getaway

Nice little spot on the lake. No beach area makes it a little difficult for young kids if they want to swim in the lake. Third bedroom is a walk through but can use bathroom instead to access the other bedroom to avoid waking kids.
