A great place to invite family

We used all the bedrooms at one time or another and had various groups of family staying anywhere from all 4 nights to 2. The three levels with some privacy on each were fantastic.

Wonderful property!

This was a great place for our family. We liked being together, but still had separate space for each family with our own bathrooms! It’s close enough to town to enjoy all the activities, but provides a private space to relax. We will definitely be going back!

Great Up North Stay!

We were visiting family in the Ludington area and this place was a great location with all the amenities of a household. Lots of space to spread out and cook meals. Super clean and lake access if you choose off the dock just down the way only 3 minute walk. Cleanest rental that we have stayed in. Would recommend.

Great Weekend Away

Excellent communication and directions from owner both pre-trip and via clear instructions onsite; layout worked well for us as we have teen and adult kids so everyone had plenty of space for the different hours they kept; well stocked kitchen and plenty of dishes for cooking; great sized dining room table for eating in and playing family games; extra wall AC units kept the bedroom temperatures cool on the second floor; would definitely consider staying here again if we are in the area

Wonderful mini family vacation

Great time spent with the family. Each family group had their own level of the house. Plenty of space to spread out. Weather could have been better, but that did not detract from our experience.

Wonderful stay

My family and I stayed here this past weekend and it was great! The house was so clean and it has everything you need and then some! There were 4 adults and 5 kids and there was plenty of room for all of us. The upstairs was perfect for my sister and her husband and their 3 kids under the age of 6. It’s not far from Downtown Ludington and Ludington State park. I wish we would have stayed longer!
