  • Adorable, recently renovated home in town with a 3 block walk to the beach! Sleeps 10. Spacious backyard. Grill provided. Front porch (partially enclosed). Three bedrooms/1.5 bath - Main bath has a shower and a separate tub. Take advantage of the close proximity to downtown restaurants and shopping. Stop at House of Flavors for amazing ice cream.

Had a wonderful time. The property was well appointed with towels, dishes and everything we needed. The location close to Stearns Beach was very convenient. Everyone enjoyed the stay and we're sorry to go, and hopeful to come back in the future. The only complaint was that the trip wasn't longer - the best kind of vacation. Also, communication with the host was extremely good!

This was the perfect place to stay for a little winter getaway with friends. We went hiking at Ludington State Park during the day as well as a lantern lit hike at night. This place was great to come back to and eat, play games and sleep.
