Ultimate: 350 steps to Stearns Beach--short walk to lighthouse, town, harbor

About this house rental

Nestled in Ludington, this charming house for $1,208 per night is a great option for your next break. Now for the story: Our English Cottage was built in 1930 on the top of a dune rise. It sits only 350 footsteps from Stearns Beach, one of the top-rated beaches on Lake Michigan. The house is in an exclusive neighborhood of large and historic homes. You won’t find a better location in Ludington (or maybe the whole world!). For instance, you can pack your towels and walk to the beach in five minutes. The same short walk in another direction will take you downtown, to the harbor, or to play parks for your children. Many guests tell us they enjoy brewing a morning coffee and walking to the lighthouse or the harbor to watch the S.S. Badger and the herring gulls pass by. (Of note, the first log home in Ludington was built on this property.) The first floor is renovated with high ceilings, a bay window, French doors, and arches. The floor plan features a center hall, leading to three bedrooms, one with a sunroom facing west towards the lake. There is a private master bedroom bath and a full hall bath. All the ornate, original radiators remain. (We plan to keep them forever!) The second floor has a kitchen, full bath, dining area, and one bedroom with a queen bed. There is a queen futon and a sturdy rollaway bed for sleeping. You can reach the second floor through either outside or inside exits. Outside, you'll have a gathering area on a covered porch (great for coffee or cocktails). The yard is sloped and contains a fire pit, charcoal grill, picnic table, and chairs (enough for everyone). The first and second floor and the grounds are included in the rental. The basement and garage are reserved for the owners' use. There are two small parking spots on the garage apron and one at the motel office. We have a large corner lot where parking is allowed at the curb for cars, boats, and trailers up to 22 feet in length. (There is a 6-unit motel on the property as well. If you wish to rent extra rooms for your guests, you can book them through us.)
