Everything was wonderful at the Little White Cottage...the cottage was decorated as cute as can be and the outside areas to relax were nice too! We enjoyed the peace and quiet and yet close enough of a drive to local fun places - like Stix, the state park, The Perch, and more. We highly recommend this place for a couples or small family getaway!

We loved our stay here!!! The decor was spot on and we had so many much needed kitchen items including a great grill! Little touches were everywhere including a citronella candle outside and a drying rack for towels. Beach towels were a great option too! We had some trouble sleeping at night as both beds made a lot of noise (frame for the queen and the springs on the pullout) which is the only reason I didn’t give a 5/5! Everything else is definitely amazing including the cute remodeled shower! Perfect for a couple and close to state park! Thanks for a fun vacation!

This cottage surpassed our expectations! It was so thoughtfully and artfully presented, you felt comfortable and welcomed instantly. The neat lawn, the colorful flowers, the inviting firepit, and the lovely porch added so much appeal to the cottage before you even set foot inside. Once inside, the furnishings, the artwork, the windows, the layout all were so pleasing. Linens, pillows, towels, beach towels and chairs, a marshmallow fork, the well-stocked kitchen; everything continued to impress. It was very clean, up-to-date, and tasteful! We hope to return!

The space is small but well laid out and very clean! The host was accommodating and responsive, the surroundings were quiet, and location was great! Within a few miles of downtown Ludington as well as Ludington Stare Park. Recommended for adults partners traveling for a few days, or maybe a very small group of friends. Thanks for everything!
