Great property for a big group (we had 8 with plenty of space for more). Short drive to Ludington (where our wedding event was). Town is fine—decent diner and gas station walking distance from house. Would definitely go back if in the area again. Property owner was excellent with communication and always quick to respond to messages.

Blast from the past

Very cute house, lots of room to spread out. Shower pressure good, excellent AC. Nice to have the Keurig. We used the outdoor grill, which was a plus. About 10 minute drive to beach, Meijer nearby, if you need something. Pretty quilts on beds

Family reunion

This property was used mainly for sleeping purposes and to house (7) family members ranging in age from 30-90 who were going to attend a larger family reunion at Stoney lake. Becky was VERY easy to work with and understanding.The property was immaculate and beds very comfortable. The only downside, which we knew going into it, was all the stairs necessary to access the bedrooms.

We had a great family vacation. The house was so beautiful and historic. Sitting on that huge front porch drinking coffee in the morning was so calming. We spent most of our time there. The back yard games were a hit also. Lovely stay.
