Place was so cute and worked really well for my boyfriend and I. Very close to the beach to watch sunsets. Might want to rent bikes to get back and forth from town. But the walk isn’t that bad. I would recommend bringing your own shampoo and conditioner and you need to bring your own coffee and filters. But otherwise a fully stocked cottage. Very enjoyable experience.

Cozy cabin that is very clean and well appointed with practical furniture. Bathroom has full sized shower, which is difficult to find in small cabins. Within walking distance of Ludington Beach and downtown Ludington. Quiet in the evening. Would stay here again.

Thank you for the 5 stars! I so glad your wrote “very small”. The reservation was for two guests .. you texted me and asked for a one night ...a beach day ....for your family. I reminded you that per our Bi-Laws we are limited to four guests. I do not accept reservations for four adults. The cleaner informed me that the cottage was “very dirty”. I would prefer you seek other accommodations. Thanks again Linda

Great Stay

I was looking for a place close to the beach for my 2 kids and I to have a short vacation. The cottage was extremely clean and the decor was perfect. Great location as we could just walk to the beach and return home for lunch. I would definitely stay here again. Thanks for a great experience!

Adorable little cottage

This cottage is tiny, but it is adorable and has everything you need and more. The owner has really thought of everything. It's just a short 2 block walk to the beach. We went to the state park and several restaurants in town. We had a great stay and would definitly come back.

Thank you for the five stars..and for confirming what I have tried to inform inquiring guests..this cottage is great for two people and small families! This is a seasonal rental and most of our guests usually eat and sleep here ...spending most of their time doing outside activities. I can’t do anything about the square footage..so I try to provide what I think you would need ..to make your stay as relaxing as possible. You are welcome back anytime! Linda
