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.

amazing property!
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.

Family weekend
I can't say enough wonderful things about our experience here. The cottage was perfect... every little detail taken care of. My grandchildren loved the bunk beds and all of the things in the garage/ play area. We were more than comfortable and the quick walk to the beach was the best part of all! I definitely will be back and would recommend this to friends and family.

LOVED Ludington
This little house was perfect. Perfect location for Beach, Shopping and Meals. The list of things to do and places to eat that the property owner left was very helpful. Only one small bathroom, but it was the cutest little house. We will go back.

Family friendly fun!
We have a getaway to Ludington with our family of 5 and this house was perfect. The location was excellent and the property was great. My three boys loved the bunk beds and “play room” area. They were obsessed with the garage too. Vanessa was so easy to work with and very accommodating. Highly recommend!!

Vanessa has thought of everything from the ease of communication and check in to the cutely decorated cottage, the comfy beds, all of the fun games in the garage, and even an old fashioned malt machine! Ludington has been a family tradition for 50+ years, and this was hands-down our favorite rental. We will definitely be checking in next year!
