Perfect location!
The cottage was perfect for my daughter and me. We enjoyed walks to the beach, into town and just around the neighborhood. The sunsets and lighthouse were also a highlight. And it’s just a short distance to Ludington State Park with hiking, water craft activities, and beautiful scenery.

Our favorite place so far! We’ve been going for 5 years now, staying different places. Such a cute quaint place, great location for walking to the beach and into town for dinner or the art festival…everything that’s offered in Ludington!
Can’t wait to stay with Tina again!

Could Not Be Happier
Due to our love for Ludington, we decided to spend our 45th anniversary week there. I booked this cottage because of its description and closeness to the beach.
Little did I know how much we would LOVE our getaway. From the cute red kitchenette, with Everything we needed, to the comfortable living room - new couch and tables - to the bedroom with 2 beds with super comfortable mattresses and new, high quality sheets and bedspreads.
Communication with the owner was almost immediate and always pleasant and helpful.
I highly recommend this cottage and plan on renting again next year..or maybe this fall.
