Boat over to dinner at a lakeside restaurant

Long Lake is indeed long, as it stretches from Alpena county into two townships of Presque Isle County. Much of the shoreline forest hosts many wildlife species such as deer, bear, ducks, geese and turkey.Just a few minutes from the social amenities of Alpena, it also has two shoreside restaurants and several public marinas and a park.

Fishing is good with species such as perch, walleye, northern pike, bream, rock bass, and small-mouth bass lurking in the coves and bays. Swimming, boating, sailing or just spending time at the shore are some of the most popular summertime activities.
