I cannot say enough great things about this trip. Very close to the beach and downtown. Chris, Jenna, Meredith and Carson were all so amazing to meet and took really good care of us. The breakfast were so delicious and made us excited to get ready for the day. We will definitely be back to this beautiful house and town.

This is a first rate Bed & Breakfast. The accommodations are very clean and comfortable. The owners make you feel very welcome, and the breakfast is outstanding. If you are in the area, The Ludington House is highly recommended.

Stayed a week-end with my daughter-in-law and we both had a fabulous time. The house is beautiful, grounds well cared for and the food was excellent. The bed was very comfortable and the room large enough for the two of us. Would highly recommend the Ludington House!

Lovely place. Only drawback was the awkward tub / shower in the bedroom We reserved the Skylightroom, and you’re limited to only a bath if you’re tall due to the ceiling height. We would stay again, but would select another roo .

Wonderful weekend in Th Nautical Suite, hosted by Jenna and Chris. The Ludington House is beautiful and charming and the suite was great! We did not try breakfast but it looked yummy. Both Chris and Jenna were very patient with me while I decided on which room I wanted and were just very thoughtful, transparent, and responsive hosts. We would definitely return for future Gus Mackers.
