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!

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.

- "We had a lovely time staying at the Octagon. Denise was a great host and provided everything that we needed for our stay. The house was very clean, the location was ideal for where we were visiting and all of the amenities were available in the house." - "Great place. Love the history. The surrounding area is awesome" - "We chose the Octagon for our Anniversary weekend away. Like any VRBO you don’t fully know what you are getting till you arrive. It was after dark and we drop up to a house that was lit up all around. Amazing welcome! The house was immaculate. They thought of everything you could possibly need! We loved the art and unique decor. Denise was amazing! Even helped us with the best route to the house etc. Can’t say enough great things "

I like that we brought all our own linens and bedding, I feel that is more efficient for both owner and guest. The lake, the use of the resort's aluminum rowboats (we attached our own motor), grills, firepit and outdoor furniture made it a fun, relaxing week and we all agreed we would definitely like to return to Presque Isle Resort."
