There isn't an option for cold packs.i travel with medication that needs to be refrigeration and cold packs are necessary for next day travel. TV remote didn't work. Shower needs updating. Limited towels. Breakfast process was good, timed eating, but was fresh and good. Morning people friendly.

This was my second stay at Summers Inn. It was just as nice the second time as it was the first. Only difference was this time it was more expensive most likely due to Labor Day weekend. While it is a very quaint spot and good walking distance from town I’m not sure I’d pay a hefty price for it again.

We could bike anywhere we wanted from this property-to mountain bike trails, to Ludington State Park and beaches, to downtown and to Buttersville Peninsula. We also liked that it was at the beginning of the historical homes walking route. The beds were very comfortable and the surrounding gardens, koi pond and library were a nice feature.

Unique 1960s motel with updated features and decor. Staff was very nice. A beautiful outside sitting area with a large koi pond. Convenient to Carferry and downtown. Stayed in a large 2 room King suite which was clean and it had all of the amenities. Small kitchenette with refrigerator, microwave, coffee pot, toaster, sink, and some dishware. Bathroom was small, but that’s how they used to be back in the day. Other two rooms were very large.

It's a excellent place for adults as we have stayed here multiple times and will again. My only complaint is that the pillows in our room were hard and flat. We'll bring our own next time just in case.

Wonderful Stay

Summers Inn is a beautiful place to stay for adults. Very quiet, our room was very clean, and you start your day with a wonderful breakfast served to you. The gardens are pretty and it’s close to the beaches and State Park.

We are so very impressed with Summer's End Inn. It is a very short walk from downtown Ludington. We had a picnic dinner and played games in the garden. The sound of the water flowing into the coy pond was so relaxing.
