The space is small but well laid out and very clean! The host was accommodating and responsive, the surroundings were quiet, and location was great! Within a few miles of downtown Ludington as well as Ludington Stare Park. Recommended for adults partners traveling for a few days, or maybe a very small group of friends. Thanks for everything!

Cute Spot to Stay!

This little cottage was well decorated, comfortable, and had pretty much everything we needed. A little walk to Hamlin lake, a short drive to the state park/beach, and not too deep in the woods lol.It's a good spot for a romantic getaway. Despite the hot weather we've had, the owners had the fans running when we got there and it was comfortable. Nice quiet area, too.

As a visitor from Europe I felt genuinely welcomed and at ease. It was the incredible attention in detail that felt me truly at home . It was the little touches- beach blankest, beach chairs, prepared firewood in grill, marshmellows wood sticks that my stay especially memorable....Best stay among 6 different hotels/ B&B, appartements....

Our stay at the Little White Cottage was wonderful. We knew when we booked that it was small, but it was just the right size for my grandson & myself. It was packed with charm, was comfortable & had everything we needed. I would definitely stay here again.
