This was the perfect little quiet getaway cabin! The cabin was incredibly clean and well-stocked with the listed amenities. The king-size bed was very comfortable, and that bedroom had a quaint, relaxing theme. The location was perfect for our intended event in Manistee, but we also enjoyed being close to Ludington. We enjoyed the option to kayak on the nearby lake and the yard setup for activities.One of the selling points for us was that this cabin is down a paved road! We were in the area for a car show, so it was nice not to have to travel down a dirt road to get to the cabin for our stay. The hosts were very communicative about the check-in process and willing to be of assistance should we have needed it. We will definitely add this cabin to the top of our list for rebooking when we come back next June.

The Red Cabin Retreat was a 1st Class wxperience and exceeded our expectations on every count. The property was inviting, spotless and had everything we could want to ensure we were both entertained and able to relax. I highly recommend this particular property for anyone looking to truly escape the crowds and noise of the hotel chains.

This is our second time staying at the cabin and it was just as nice as the last. The cabin has everything you need and communication with the owner is always great. Neighborhood is nice and quiet so after a long day in downtown Ludington, it’s nice to come back to the peace and quiet.

This place grew on us during our stay and we hated to leave on the day of our departure. The inside was well equipped for being able to cook and prepare meals. The outdoor furniture was dusty and we cleaned it off before using it. The inside was very tidy and the bed was super comfortable! I would definitely consider staying here again!
