The property was very clean and had plenty of space. Nice quiet location near the water and close enough to all the nearby attractions. We plan to come back in the future and will be seeing if this place is available again!!

Lovely area, peaceful cottage. We felt like we were staying in a friend’s home. Clean, bright, and very well taken care of! All the amenities you would put in your own cottage. Close to the State Park and downtown Ludington. Hope to visit again soon!

We had a lot of fun. The property was everything we had hoped for. The neighborhood is way set back off the beaten path, but not too horribly much. Overall was a fun little cottage. Wifi worked, but we had to reset the router and modem to get it work. Lake channel access which we didn't use, but a nice place. The neighbors were a little creepy tho. They kept glaring at us. They were kind, but creepy. Overall got a snooty vibe from a small cottage community. If you're chill, it will be fine.
5.0
We throughly enjoyed our stay. The house is fully supplied with everything you would need for a stay. We enjoyed being on the water however the canal was too shallow for us to dock our boat. But no worries, the cottage is within minutes of the boat launch in beautiful Ludington state park. And, only a few miles from the boat launch in downtown Ludington. The area is packed with things to do.

The house is very clean and cozy. It has everything you need in the kitchen. Great location with dock access to the lake via a channel. We loved being so close to the State Park. This place will not disappoint.

We had a great time at this cottage! The area was quiet and peaceful, neighbors were so kind and we had all that we needed and more! This location doesn’t skimp on beautiful Sights to see and is located near a small more private lake and beach area that is great for kids! Host was very responsive with any questions leading up to the trip and also throughout!

This was a really nice little cottage that sat on a canal that fed into Hamlin lake. It was super clean and quite well equipped with everything you could need in the kitchen, plenty of towels, and sheets, and even beach towels. It was incredibly close to Ludington State Park and unbeknownst to us, there is a terrific and very clean little lake with wonderful sand just behind the property within walking distance. Our Littles really enjoyed that lake because it was so shallow and clean. It was also a little warmer than Lake Michigan.
The canal that is in front of the property, unfortunately is slow moving and was full of algae slime, probably from ChemLawn run off throughout the canal neighborhood. Regardless, the kids loved the little beach area by the canal and we also used the fire pit down there to make s’more’s. There were a fair number of nail pops on the pier area, which made us make sure all the kids had shoes on down there. If I had a hammer, I would’ve tapped them in myself.
I wish there would’ve been an outside spigot that we could’ve used to wash the sand off of the kids before they came into the house. We did the best we could, and it was not a major issue. I just like to try to treat other peoples property as if it was my own. The unit was fully stocked with everything you needed to have an enjoyable time. Spices, coffee, soap, paper products, etc.
The only suggestion I have is that the sofa bed be replaced or guest should bring a blowup bed

Very clean property located near state park and Hamlin Lake. Property had all needed amenities and was perfect for a family of 4. Checkin and checkout were very easy.
We will definitely plan to stay here again the next time we stay in the Ludington area.

Property was exactly what we were looking for in a fall getaway. What a beautiful setting. Very close to the State park. Short drive to Ludington. We visited Baldwin, Branch, Scottville, Heston, Manistee lovely area. The cottage it self was laid out nice. Very clean and well stocked. Was very enjoyable eating breakfast in the 3 season room over looking the channel. Would definitely stay here again. Thank you for sharing your slice of Heaven.

I loved this property the minute we drove up and especially when we walked in the door!! It far exceeded my expectations and the pictures don’t do it justice!! We did a fall color tour and this location was perfect!! Minutes from downtown Ludington and Lake Michigan! Within driving distance to the places we had mapped out! This house has everything you need!! Towels, extra bedding, washer and dryer!! Host supplies toilet paper, paper towel, cleaning supplies and even coffee and filters!! Also water in the fridge!! We left extra bottles for the next guests!! Beautiful sunroom and outdoor space right on the canal with a fire pit!! I highly recommend this property!! You will not be disappointed!! Thank you again for a fantastic stay!! We would definitely stay here again!!

Ideal for Lake Michigan lovers. Quiet peaceful cabin community that makes you feel like you’ve come home. If you love the Ludington State Park, you will love the location. The cabin is clean, bright and well put together.
4.0
Ludington is a great place to visit. We took the USS Badger across Lake Michigan and stayed at this adorable home right on a canal to Lake Hamlin. Beautiful piece of property with access to fishing. It was clean and well equipped. I want to give it 5 stars but our friends were not able to use the guest shower (plumbing problem) and the master bath showerhead was a bit challenging. The back sliding door was difficult to use as well. We made the host aware and I’m sure they will remedy it. Overall we really enjoyed our time in this home. The hosts provided great tips for local places (pizza place is very good). There’s a great ice cream shop in town called House of Flavors. There’s also a gorgeous beach in town. We would love to come back to this area one day and despite the couple of issues, we do recommend this place as I’m sure the hosts will address the problems we encountered.

We had a wonderful few days here. The home was more than we had hoped for. Super clean, spacious and peaceful. My kids enjoyed fishing from the dock, campfires on the beach at night and playing in the yard. We rented a boat on Hamlin Lake, walked the trails, hung out at the beach, rented ATVs in Silver Lake and overall made beautiful memories there. We will definitely be back!

We had nice mornings drinking coffee on the deck watching the sunrise ☀️ over the water in the mornings. Very quiet neighborhood on a dead end road with only a few homes. Very close to Lake Michigan & the State Park just 1 mile away. Nice to have a gas grill to enjoy a quiet dinner at the house. There is a nice sandy beach area right in front of the canal w/ a fire pit & first bundle of wood supplied for a nice fire after a day at the beach. We had a wonderful time and will stay again.
