The Dock House - Upper unit next to the City Marina
Great upper unit of this two unit house next to the City Marina where you can dock your boat and walk to the house. We are walking distance to the beach, harbor, the Badger and downtown. This listing is for the upstairs unit only. If you would like to rent the lower unit as well, it has a separate 2 bedroom 2 bath downstairs (listing 4813202) This cottage is a charming home with a small deck in the back. The stairs to the deck have been completely rebuilt as well as the bedroom floors. Some areas of the unit have sloped ceilings and could be an issue but not a hindrance for taller individuals. The cottage is fully furnished with a washer and dryer, cable TV, freezer in the basement, WIFI and a full kitchen with everything you need for cooking. If you don't want to cook, you are walking distance to the downtown area with some of the finest restaurants and bars. Take a walk along Pere Marquette lake or out to the lighthouse on Stearns Beach. So much to do and see just blocks away. With the Loomis boat launch just 2 blocks away, this is ideal for the fisherman in the group.
A very comfortable stay for us and our two young kids. We loved the convenience of being able to walk everywhereâthe beach, downtown, and close to the park after dinner.
Great location for sure but to get what is asked per night someone needs to fix all the flooring where carpet exists and really upgrade the exterior steps/deck. It's obvious that an unskilled carpenter worked on it without using a tape measure. The screws weren't flush with the wood. The screen door needs replacement, the siding needs reapair and the condition of the grounds was messy. It's obvious that the owner is squeezing this lemon dry!
We loved the town and the apartment. We have lived in an attic apartment before so knew what to expect with the sloping ceilings. The only real challenge was for a man peeing standing up. The stairs look like they were recently rebuilt so they were fine. We enjoyed having coffee on the small deck. The location canât be beat. Easy walk to beach and food.
The property on the 2nd level has many outdoor steps to reach it. Although, it looked as if it had been mainly replaced, the railings were not sanded and both my husband and I had splinters in our hands from it. The property manager was responsive and when we complained about something, he fixed the problem and refunded one night stay.
This was not what was expected unfortunately especially for the cost.
Communication came with directions for lower unit to get in, though we had rented upper, code didn't work for either with the directions provided and couldn't get hold of the host. Finally got into the lower, started to unpack then was told to move to the upper. Moved everything again.
The upper did say slanted ceiling - WOW no one over 5 5 should stay there. It was awful for 6ft spouse, the floors were so uneven and in bedroom the worst. Bed was so bad we came home a day early. Best thing was the location, we got in many walks in by the water.
The lower unit looked much nicer, not sure what the price difference was. Would not recommend the upper unit.
If you aren't going to be available to answer calls as a host then have backup number for the person that is available to answer if there are issues is our recommendation.
Really like the location of the property. didn't expect that it was a unit built into an attic with very steep stairs. The air conditioner in the family room was great, bedroom was ok, but kitchen was warm with no air conditioner in the middle.
Unique property that my five year-
old granddaughter stated was "cute & perfect" for us! The bed & bedding was really comfortable, which for me, is most important to sleep well after all of the daily activities. The place was really clean with
plenty of bath towels and well stocked kitchen. The carpeting could use some cleaning and the stairway/deck outside doesn't seem safe, especially for small kids, with wobbly railings and some springy deck boards. It might also be helpful to note that parking for the upper unit is accessed from the alley behind the unit. But you cannot beat this location! We walked almost everywhere and the area is absolutely beautiful and surprising quiet. There is so much to do and see that we wished we could have stayed longer! Thank you so much!
The Dock House was exactly as described. Does have slanted ceiling but did not impede the function of the house.
The stairwell is slightly steep, width of step slim.
The dock house was clean, quiet, and the perfect location to celebrate Ludingtonâs New Years fireworks and ball drop. Close to Ludington state park and town
Very quaint and exactly what we were looking for. Host was fast at getting back to us and everything was in order. Within a walk of the beach and downtown. The plus side is they allowed our dog to come at the last minute. Thanks for everything!
Place was clean and very well appointed. There are 2 flights of stair to climb to get to the property, and they are a little steep and small in some cases however if you go slow shouldn't be a problem for most.
Nice cute upper flat, needs some attention to details but comfortable overall. With a little tree trim this upper unit could be listed as marina and lake viewing
Great location central to everything. Very clean. The stairs up to the second level were a little scary. Very steep and very high. You definitely have to be in shape and mobile to get all your luggage up them. Also this is NOT a property for tall or large people. We hit our heads many times on ceilings. This is in the description but wow, it was super sloped ceilings.
Would not rent again but not a bad place at all!!
Had a wonderful visit here, rented the upstairs unit and was pleased to find such a cozy, well kept unit with a nautical motif throughout. Thoughtful touches like the coffee service and extra linens, along with a comprehensive 'house manual' helped make our visit quite pleasant indeed. Great location near the beach, and the main section of town assures that we would love to keep this on our short list of rental spots to return to.
