👍👍 Beautiful beach ⛱ 💙 Water was super clear (little chilly at first) Beach area was really nice and clean. Plenty of parking, easy to find. Amazing place to make memories 💚🤍🧡💞

👍👍 Awesome museum to visit in Alpena. Lots of local, Native American history. Additionally lots of local artist art they have to check out. Finish with visit to the fossil quarry outside and walk to fishing boat and home display then stop by the gift shop. We'll worth the small admission fee!

👍👍 What a great place. I was in the old Alpena area by the river.
