The cottage was cozy (electric fireplace in the bedroom area)),as weather was cool), the large bathroom with walk in shower complete with body wash, shampoo..etc. The decor was cottage and historic of the area, but with all modern conveniences...refrigerator, microwave, coffee pot (coffee provided)..wine glasses and all dishware, utensils, even a small first aid kit in the bathroom. Pool towels and a Weber grill and table and chairs for each unit (good market with fresh meat and bakery items nearby).. A pool and fireplace for guests to gather and meet also included.

Warm hospitality, wonderful accommodations, many attractions nearby, great breakfasts.

Greg or Cindi can provide good advice on other things to do as well. (PS. Don't let the shared bathrooms on some of the rooms be a deterrent.... it is a very nice setup and was not a problem especially since there were two separate nice bathrooms available and sinks in all the rooms.)

I happened to stay right after the summer rush ended, so I was one of only a few guests staying at the motel. Check-in was fairly simple, and I was shocked at how they still do most of their business without computers. Computers or not, they were friendly and very efficient. The location is absolutely perfect, as its right at lighthouse park at the mouth of the Manistee river at Lake Michigan - beaches galore at your fingertips...toe-tips My room was small, and had a queen bed. All was clean and absent of any sort of bad odors and stains. Everything was outdated, but in a delicious, kitschy way. The view out of my room was amazing, and there were plenty of chairs and tables available for enjoying the view from your front porch. They provided free Wi-Fi, and firewood for a bonfire we had one of our nights there. We were provided with minimal toiletries, so definitely bring your own. You'll also find barbecues and pretty much anything you need to enjoy a vacation on the beach. I highly recommend this place if you're on a budget, or if you're low-maintenance and value a beautiful view over luxurious accommodations.

Not a fan. So overpriced. Inflexible cancellation policy. If you cancel less than 14 days before,…read moreyou are charged a night's stay ($205.85 for the nights I stayed there!). Even if you cancel 2 months before--you would still be charged $50. On the two nights I was there they did not fill all the rooms (and there are only 7 rooms) so I definitely wouldn't suggest booking in advance. Why risk a schedule change arising & you losing money? There are other hotels in Ludington that allow you to not pay a cent until you arrive--no charge if you need to cancel. Here is the thing that really got me. I made a reservation back in April for a stay in July. I requested Room 6 or 7 & said I would prefer an end room if available. I also shared that it was a rough trip for me because it was my first trip after my husband passed away & I was coming alone to visit our favorite place. She not only emailed me but also called me & said that she was going to be able to give me the end room, number 7. She also said she would keep in mind the information I had shared with her about the loss of my husband. I had no idea what that meant. Extra TLC perhaps? Another thing the reservation had stated was that there was "Early check-in available on request." & "Late check-out available on request." Well, I emailed regarding both & got no response. I had wanted to perhaps drop off my luggage early so it wouldn't be in the back of my vehicle when it was parked and i was walking around town. When I arrived in July I was taken aback at the lack of attention to detail. First of all, no one was at the desk--you have to pick up a cell phone & call a number and wait for them to come over from the house. And when she ambled down she said to me, "You are in Room 5." I said, "No, I am in Room 7. You promised me the end room." She said, "Yeah, sorry. There is a glitch in the system. I gave it to someone else." (A glitch in the system--there are only SEVEN rooms--write stuff down!) She made no mention of my newly widowed state--& the solution to the problem--she offered me a bigger room (?) I said, "No. The last thing I want is a bigger room--I am here ALONE. If you want to charge me less because you weren't able to honor what you promised me, I'll be okay with that." And what was really frustrating was that I had had a booking come up for my second date there, a job, but I turned it down because I didn't want to lose my deposit on the room--THAT SHE ENDED UP GIVING TO SOMEONE ELSE. She did back down and ended up giving me the room she had promised. So then she gave me a sheet of paper with the room code--she let me into the room. I was not impressed with it--but as soon as I got my stuff into the room I thought to myself--I better make sure I am able to get back into the room--because she just struck me as absent minded. I shut the door and tried the code over and over. You probably guessed it by now--she had given me the wrong code. So I went back to the office and called again--from the cell phone sitting on the desk--no one in the office--and was given the correct code over the phone--with no apology. Then, because I was exhausted and had a bit of work to do--I decided to make myself a pot of coffee--I looked at the coffee maker and was disgusted--there was a ton of dust on it--and as I looked around--I realized the whole place looked like it hadn't been dusted--so back off to the office I went--called the cell phone again sitting on the desk--no one in the office--and got one of them to bring me a cloth and cleaner--and yes, I cleaned my own room. The carpet was dirty too--my socks and slippers became black from walking on it. Another thing of note was this is the first time I had ever been in a hotel room that did not have a place for you to sit & have a meal or sit to work at your computer--no small table and chair(s). In order to use my computer I had to pull a rocking chair up to a recliner--I had to sit on the rocking chair & hunch over the recliner with my computer on that. It forced me to sit in a position that killed my back. When I arrived in the room it was HOT. The windows were open--I needed to immediately shut them and get the air conditioning on. They were SO hard to shut. It took me a long time & a lot of effort. The view out the back window was onto an alley with garbage cans & there were spider webs in the window. The view out the front window is the parking lot. The bathroom was so tiny and the shower the smallest I had ever encountered--and I am tiny--5'7" 125 lbs.--It was like showering in a box--just awful. In the pictures on their website there are billowy country style curtains on the windows. In my room there were plain white shades on one window and a single white drape on the other. There are many other choices for hotels in the area with better views, cleaner rooms, better furnished rooms, more reasonable prices, less absent minded hosts and much better cancellation policies. I would choose one of those for your stay.
