We had so much fun staying at this tidy and clean cottage. On days it rained, we hung out and played all the games in the garage that were provided. The beds were comfy and the kitchen fully stocked. This was perfect for adults, but also had a cute dollhouse and train table for our little ones.

Cozy Anniversary Outing

This cozy shake cedar ranch harkened to the house my wife, Emily, and I started are life in. It was the perfect getaway for my wife and I to spend our 25th anniversary and reminisce our journey. The cottage is wonderfully decored and well cared for. Ludington is a relaxing getaway during the holiday season; we enjoyed making a doughboy candle downtown and walking the shops.

Great stay! Thanks again!

We had a wonderful stay at this property! The host was kind, responsive, and very generous—especially in offering us flexibility with our checkout time since we arrived late due to storms. She also let us know that she had set up a pack n play ahead of time and left a high chair out for us and our little one. The space was clean, cute, and more spacious than I expected. The location was also perfect—right across from the beach and close to downtown and all the local activities. We'd definitely stay here again!Thanks again for everything, Vanessa!
