Nice little cottage just a short walk from the beautiful beach.

We stayed 3 nights in late August for a little vacation getaway before school started back up. We enjoyed beautiful weather and no crowds whatsoever. Downtown Ludington seemed like it was ready to close up early for the season. But the ice cream shops were open! And the sunsets on the water were gorgeous.

Ludington Vacay

We really enjoyed our stay at the cottage! It was immaculate and had everything we needed. The beds were very comfortable and the cottage had anything one could need. Linda was wonderful about getting back to us with a couple of questions that we had. The location was prime, with the lake a block away, and often we would ride our bikes or walk into town which was not too far. The area was super quiet at night, which was a plus! We loved the area and look forward to coming back again!

Quaint cottage by the beach

We enjoyed our stay at cottage #6. It is a quiet residential neighborhood with the cottages being literally across the street from the entrance to the beach parking lot. The cottage has the feel of yesteryear with wood paneling and decorated with a pinecone and fishing theme. It is on the smaller side with a day bed with a pull out trundle bed one side for children. It would be cramped quarters for more than two adults, but I don’t think it is available for more than 2. Full sized fridge and electric stove. The kitchen is well stocked with gadgets and utensils. The only thing we ran into that we thought was missing from the assortment was a pair of scissors. Not a huge deal, but we had a few times we found ourselves reaching for a pair of scissors and couldn’t find one. The mattress was comfortable and had no back complaints after a week, which is unusual for me. Linda left a beach umbrella and beach chairs for guests to use, but we brought our own. There is a table and chairs and Adirondack chairs outside the door to drink your morning coffee. There is a central deck with umbrella tables and a couple gas grills for community use amongst cabins. Cabin #6 has a free standing air conditioner, I believe one of the other cabins does not have air. We appreciated the AC as it was warm and rained a few days which made it muggy out. Had no problems checking in. Linda sent us the code which was active when we arrived. Would stay again if in the area. Thanks!

The BEST Cottage ever!

I've stayed in alot of Beach Cottages - mostly all good. But I never give reviews (good or bad)... until now. Ohmigosh! This Cottage (#6) is hands-down the BEST one I've had the blessing of staying in. I enjoyed it so much, I hated to have to leave. It is a well-appointed, delightful, cozy Cottage located a half block from Lake MI! It was CLEAN (which is my #1 MUST-have); the bed was super comfortable; an unbelievably well-stocked kitchen; the large shower was great, too. Security was top-notch. The owners (the Simpson's) are very accommodating and very easy to communicate with. I highly recommend this cottage (& I'm assuming their other cottage, #3, is great too) My sincere thanks to the Simpson's for providing such an excellent place for a much needed get-away. I will definitely be back!

Lovely Quaint Cottage

The cottage was clean, comfy, and the space was well utilized. The cottage provided everything needed for our stay and we appreciated the thought out details. The location was perfect for walking to the beach and down town restaurants and shops. Wonderful vacation destination!

Ok

It is not that we did or did not enjoy our stay. It is about the cabin accommodations. The cabin was clean and ready for our stay. But, the comfort of the stay was very small and the cabin had far too much decor to allow a guest to put anything away while there. There were no extra blankets left anywhere except for the bed spread that was difficult to sleep with and far too many pillows to find a place to put them. The parking is extremely small to get in and out of with the other guests parked. We would not plan too stay here again. Thanks for inquiring.

It was quite small as we expected but location close to the beach was important and it's literally a 3 minute walk. Everything worked so we had no problem renting this. A little excess decorations in the form of a pine cone(s) but that aside it was a pleasant stay!

Absolutely Perfect!

I don’t know how we were lucky enough to snag this adorable little cottage as it was booked all summer long, and for good reason! The cottage itself was perfectly located steps away from the beach and a mile from downtown. It was spotless, well stocked with everything you will need and Linda was always available for any question we had. We will definitely return!

Good location

The cabin was in a perfect location for a nice walk to downtown and a short walk to the city public beach. We come to ludington each year and it was our first time staying in downtown area - we loved the location! However, we had a baby and there were many windows that were not dark enough. Obviously that is a concern for us, but overall the cabin was good. Parking was difficult - the parking spot provided was hardly big enough for a car, so we parked on the local street - would have preferred parking closer but we made due. The code we were given to get into the cabin did not work and the lock box code was also wrong - we had to reach out to Linda again to get accurate information.
