Location at it's finest! Enjoy it all...a super clean, relaxing and enjoyable home that is only 1 street away from the beach! Treasure your time with making memories in a quiet neighborhood that is surrounded by vacation amenities. Cross one street and you will be at the City Beach known as Stearns Park. Mini Golf, concessions, volleyball nets, pier, and light house, along with a skate park and playground encompass the beach area. 5 walking blocks away is the downtown area which is known for shopping, restaurants (Indulge at House of Flavors Ice cream shop and restaurant- famous for countless flavors and smiles), Sand Castle Children's Museum, Library, Bike Shop & Rentals, Marina & Playground. All aboard...Cruise Lake Michigan S.S. Badger Carferry from Ludington to Wisconsin daily. Go for the afternoon or overnight. Some travelers bring their vehicle on the carferry while others step on board. Conveniently located only a couple blocks from downtown, all within walking distance of this rental. Relax indoors or out in this well kept 4 bedroom home. Peek a boo views of Lake Michigan from the kitchen, downstairs and upstairs west bedrooms. 2 bedrooms on the main level and 2 upstairs. Fresh linens provided for use in the home. Listen to the waves sitting in the yard or view the majestic sunsets. Cross the street to go fishing and savor a late night dinner on the grill! Guests you will love the size of this yard! A lot of properties do not offer the size and layout of this entertaining sized yard especially with trees and open sunny space. It is hard to believe your in the city. Cool and comfortable in the shade part of the yard and sunny and bright in the other part of the yard. Regardless of where you are enjoying it there is plenty of room to sit and play! Relax on the patio that has spring chairs (like rockers) or sit in the adirondack chairs while roasting marshmallows otherwise, sit near the back door for a shaded conversation or perhaps in front of the house to watch the deer across the street (they do visit our yard too). If you are Flying into Michigan here are a few options nearby: 1\. Grand Rapids Airport (GRR) : This is located in Grand Rapids, MI It is about 1.5 hours south of Ludington.

There's zero doubt that her first priority was us being happy with our stay. Only one thing of note... When we arrived, there was a slight odor of what smelled like cat urine, which, as we all know is VERY difficult to get rid of. It wasn't completely overwhelming, but it was there, several of us commented on it. BUT, it wouldn't stop me or my friends from staying here again. Overall - it was a GREAT experience in a wonderful house with a great location and an incredible 'Host'. ##### Rex R. Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Elizabeth G. Jul 30, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### 24th going to Ludington This place is an excellent location for walking to the beach. We typically take our beach wagon down to the beach most of our days for our annual visit to Ludington. I didn’t realize until we were about to come there that the upstairs twin bed could be converted to a king, which was nice! We travelled with my husband and two daughters (6 and 10) as well as my sister and brother-in-law and 22 year old nephew. The only things I recommend is bringing an extra extension cord or two, there are not many outlets in the house for plugging in fans/phones and do not leave your beach stuff in the back yard because it will get stained with the mulberries (there is space to put it in the basement or bring a tarp to cover it up). I also forgot to bring a laundry basket but there were plenty there which was nice. We would definitely stay here again! ##### Elizabeth G. Stayed 8 nights in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jacob L. Aug 4, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Perfect Lake Michigan vacation The whole family loved our stay in Ludington! The location of this house is ideal: an easy one-block walk (even for a 5-year-old and carrying beach toys and a cooler) from a wonderful, large, not-too-crowded beach — but just far enough away to provide a bit of privacy and one-block barrier from the beach noise. The water was great for our stay: hovering around 70 degrees all week, with middle-sized waves a few days and calm waters the others. We heard there was algae at further-up-the-coast beaches, but the water was crystal clear at our beach (Stearns Park). We also enjoyed being walking distance from the lighthouse (walked there for beautiful sunsets), shuffleboard, ice cream (tried something House of Flavors every night) and mini golf. The house had everything we needed. We made most meals at home aside from one dinner at Ludington Bay Brewery (the Tangelo beer was a nice find) and one at Chuckwagon Pizza, which were both good and walkable. With two adults and three kids, we actually had an extra bedroom. We would definitely love to stay here again next time we get a chance for a beach vacation. ##### Jacob L. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### kristie v. Jun 17, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Solo I spent most of my time this weekend as a solo in the cottage as my teens had a 3 on 3 basketball competition in the area. Town was busy because of it, and this cottage was our relaxing retreat away. It was so peaceful watching the deer and little fawn nibble across the street. I am a bit embarrassed to admit that I fell asleep in the Adirondack chair listening to the birds in song. The house was clean, well appointed and had more room than we needed. The host was kind and left me good coffee which was a God-send after the journey. The street was a little crazy with Gus Macker 3on 3 ball going on (lots of turn arounds in the drive and people looking for parking) but I would assume there would be very little traffic on a normal week. The night time beach walks were my favorite time. The fish were jumping, sunsets amazing and the images of the bagger passing the lighthouse brought me back to my youth. This is Not a wheelchair friendly cottage, but the second floor made my kids feel like they had their own hang out. Possibly a place for a grand parent to bring teen grand children for a week. Plenty for teens to do in walking distance. I travel for my job and stay a lot of places, this cottage was nostalgic, and what you would expect from a historic neighborhood….better than a hotel choice. Hope we are lucky enough to book again next year. ##### kristie v. Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Jan A. Jul 24, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy Perfect location!!! 5 minute walk to the beach, 5 minute drive to town and about a 15 minute drive to nearby state park. House was very clean and decor is really nice with a beach theme. Well stocked kitchen and house was spacious with 4 bedrooms. Very much appreciated small 1/2 bath upstairs. Stacey was very easy to work with and super responsive. Only issue was that because it’s an older home, the wooden staircase was quite squeaky/noisy and there is a bedroom under the stairs. Just something to be mindful of. Also yard is only fenced on one side and open to back and other side but neighbors were very friendly. Would stay again!! ##### Jan A.
