Great location
Great location and stay! House isn’t very toddler proof but there’s so much to do outside of the house that we almost forgot! Everything was very clean and spacious. Beautiful home! Mark was great to communicate with. We ended up breaking a patio chair on accident and he was very understanding. Great host with great communication!

Everything went very well. Nice spacious home and easy access to downtown. Neighbors are wonderful and even offered us elephant ears as they were testing a new fryer. Host was attentive and made it a very easy experience for the first time trying this. Will definitely visit again!

Great house, size & location
We absolutely enjoyed our stay! Having a separate gaming area was nice with two sons who game. The foosball table battles were epic! The living room is very nice sized. The house definitely has room for people to spread out! Between the front porch, enclosed & not, back yard, large living room, dinning room, 3 bedrooms & the basement love it! Having two bathrooms is a real perk! We enjoyed the bath as well. Thinking of families with young kids & beach days is t would really come in handy. We look forward to returning!!!

Off season stay
We loved this house. Mark is so kind and easy to communicate with. The neighbors are great. We were here during a winter storm and one of the neighbors kept the sidewalk and walkway cleared which was very appreciated. Unfortunately our visit to Ludington was under not so great circumstances and we were in and out often, we were so grateful to come back and relax in a cozy home. We highly recommend!

Sweet House
It was a very cold off season stay, but the house met the match. We enjoyed the period details (early 1900's) along with the modern updates. Handy to have streaming available with large TV (no beach or swimming that time of year). Matt was responsive to us from start to finish.

Fall getaway
It was a very nice crisp October week. Some of the stores in town are only open a few days a week. The property was absolutely awesome and so was the owner of the property who was so helpful with things to do and the amenities on his property. Will hopefully get a chance to stay again

New favorite staycation spot!
This house was close to fun downtown shops and restaurants. It was also a five minute drive from Stix and close to some beautiful Lake Michigan beaches. The house itself was stocked with everything you would want while away from home, the backyard was roomy and perfect to hang out and have coffee while the kids ran around and played. The front porch and living spaces were cozy. Everything was clean and we can’t wait to book with Mark again! He was a lovely host and had great recommendations for the area 😊

Awesome
This place was great. It's a very cute house, in a very cute neighborhood. You can't really tell from the listing, but the backyard is also really nice -- we spent a lot of time hanging out back there. Mark was also very attentive and helpful (thank you!). We're hoping we'll be able to make it back here most every summer.
