About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Beach across 1 Street! 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. This airport offers the most options for flights.

2. Muskegon Airport: This is located in Muskegon, MI. It is about 45 minutes south of Ludington. Their are less flight options but is is closer.

3. Traverse City Airport: Located in Traverse City, MI. It is about 1.5 hours North of Ludington.

4. Coming from Chicago? Amtrak train will depart from Chicago and stop in Grand Rapids, MI and Holland, MI. Both cities offer Budget and Hertz Car Rentals. Regardless of which city you depart from it is about 1.5 hour travel time to Ludington via car. Holland Amtrak station unloads passengers downtown Holland which is an award winning downtown community. It is landscaped with beautiful flowers, free standing brick fire pits, great shopping, an array of clean restaurants, and a splash pad for the kids! This opportunity to travel via Amtrak would allow you to stretch out visit the downtown area and check in at 4:00 or after.

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!

Very nice and cozy! Excellent Customer Service too!

Stacy was INCREDIBLE to work with. 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'.

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.

Great location

The location of this house is wonderful. The amenities seem like they’d be great for a family. Though the house has a tub, it is not functional and does not hold water for a tub. I wish that information was provided ahead of time. The house has a dishwasher and washer/dryer, but soap wasn’t included. The house requires no shoes to prevent sand on the hardwood floor, which makes sense; however, there is no hose outside to rinse before coming inside. The host called multiple times before our stay, and knew we would be traveling with young children. When we arrived, every surface had glass decorative objects and faux or live greenery and vases. The house would be great for adults traveling together, but very young children may not be best for this house.
