noisy

Loved our return trip to this place. 2 things that were negative. The upstairs people were up at five am and the kids running from one end of the house to the other. The guest bedroom didn’t have a sheet on it. We will probably return next year but want to be certain upstairs will be empty.

Beautiful Apartment

We loved this apartment, it had literally everything we could ever want and we will definitely be back. It's stunning, and well appointed. The pros: the location, look, feel of the house, amenities, etc. The cons: the beds are a little "bony" meaning you can feel the springs a bit but we still got good sleep, but the mattresses may need to be changed soon. And the upstairs tenants for a couple of days seemed to be getting their steps in at midnight and it's a creaky floor, so you hear every step they took. Next year when we stay, we'll have friends rent the upstairs so we can all be on the same schedule. It was a lovely home. We can't wait to come back!

Nice place, great stay!

Had a great time staying here! The house is very nice and conveniently located, only a 5-10 minute walk to most places. They actually have a good amount of kitchen utensils for home cooking. I would recommend this place to anyone looking to stay close to downtown Ludington!

Lovely and welcoming!

We were in town for a funeral after a very difficult time, and this lovely house and gracious hosts were exactly what we needed. We look forward to returning under happier circumstances to enjoy the big porch, walkable neighborhood, and proximity to the beach. Thanks, Amy!

Beautiful decor / Amazing gas fireplace

Great location. Well equipped. Super clean. Only a Keurig for coffee, so may want to bring electric kettle. Only downside was the sliding door to the bathroom off of the kitchen...not as private as I like.

Very cozy & clean. Felt like home!

We enjoyed our stay. Everything was clean, cozy & well stocked. Great kitchen set up. We also appreciated the fall decor.. it felt like home. Owner was super responsive with communication. Location was great, walking distance to downtown Ludington. Also, the neighborhood felt very safe. Our only issue was limited privacy on 2nd bathroom with barn door, which is right off kitchen. I provided feedback to owner, and she said her husband adjusted it. Everything else was perfect, so we would stay again. :-)

House was great. It was clean and had everything you would need. The only cons for me was you could hear the people in the up stairs walking around, talking and the tv at times. And the sheets seem clean but I am sensitive to smell and they sprayed Febreze on the sheets with a perfume scent. Luckily I brought my own sheets just in case.
