We had a amazing time with our fur pups!! Thank you for being a great host. Our fur pups enjoyed going to the dog beach. We got to go see a few of the lighthouses around the area. The house is very close to everything you'd want to go and do in Ludington. The home is very beautiful and spacious as well.

The house is just beautiful - comfortable and clean, with plenty of room. We loved the fenced yard for my sister's dog, and the gate at the top of the basement stairs was fantastic for keeping her separated from my cat. (I imagine it'd be convenient for kids, too. ) Nice and close to downtown Ludington, where my nephew's wedding venue was. Easy check in, and the easiest check out I've ever had at a rental. 100% recommend - one of the best places I've ever stayed, and a really great first VRBO experience for my octogenarian parents.

The home is in a quiet neighborhood with a nice large backyard. The kitchen is large. The clothes washer and dryer are new. There were a few maintenance and convenience items that should be taken care of and we let the property manager know.

This home was perfect for our family group of 11. We cooked two large meals during our stay, and the kitchen was perfect for that. Everything seemed to be new and/or updated. Just fyi, the disposal had to be plugged in and out under the sink to be used. The wall switch would not work without doing that. Great rental, close to the beach.

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
Location was great and we loved the size of the house for our family. However, there were a few minor things that should be improved. Some towels were no longer white (clearly makeup stains so not owners fault but they should be replaced as it felt a bit odd), there were no blankets on the bed other than the comforter and there was clearly a pet at the home at some point in time as we had hair on quite a few items and found quite a few while there. None of these would discourage my stay, but for a “luxury” house advertised, it didn’t feel luxurious.
