This property was exactly what we were looking for…a quiet place to get away from a busy lifestyle. We stayed here for a couple days while exploring Ludington. Stay here if you are ever in the area. You won’t be disappointed. Great communication from the host as well. If we get back to the area we will definitely stay here again.

We appreciate your kind words. Glad you enjoyed the area and staying at the cabin.
This is a cute,clean property . Very well- stocked with everything you will need and more. Elley is a great hostess. It was in the 90s when we were there and I had my doubts that one window air conditioner would be sufficient,but it was. Thank you,Elly
Everything was perfect. The host thought about everything a guest might need and then added more. Lovely cabin - we didn't want to leave. We will be back.

Thank you , Cyndie for the nice review, glad you enjoyed your stay! Welcome back anytime!
This was the perfect little quiet getaway cabin! The cabin was incredibly clean and well-stocked with the listed amenities. The king-size bed was very comfortable, and that bedroom had a quaint, relaxing theme. The location was perfect for our intended event in Manistee, but we also enjoyed being close to Ludington. We enjoyed the option to kayak on the nearby lake and the yard setup for activities.One of the selling points for us was that this cabin is down a paved road! We were in the area for a car show, so it was nice not to have to travel down a dirt road to get to the cabin for our stay. The hosts were very communicative about the check-in process and willing to be of assistance should we have needed it. We will definitely add this cabin to the top of our list for rebooking when we come back next June.
We loved the peaceful setting, and how accomodating the host was. Elly thought of everything and the cabin was very well supplied with everything you would need.
The Red Cabin Retreat was a 1st Class wxperience and exceeded our expectations on every count. The property was inviting, spotless and had everything we could want to ensure we were both entertained and able to relax. I highly recommend this particular property for anyone looking to truly escape the crowds and noise of the hotel chains.

This place is great! We loved it from start to finish! We had a wonderful host and couldn't have asked for a better experience. Great place for couples, groups and families. 10/10 would recommend! Thanks for the stay!
This is our second time staying at the cabin and it was just as nice as the last. The cabin has everything you need and communication with the owner is always great.
Neighborhood is nice and quiet so after a long day in downtown Ludington, it’s nice to come back to the peace and quiet.
