The secret garden with the koi pond was nice and the breakfast was great. Unfortunately the window treatments did NOTHING to block out the light from the parking lot nor the headlights.

Perfect get away

The stay was exactly what we needed for a quick get away. The breakfast was amazing! You order the day before then the next morning give them your room number and they bring it to you. They also have reservations so it’s not too busy. The bed was very comfortable. Love the garden too. Just perfect!

Unique property in a quiet area near the hustle and bustle of downtown Ludington. There was a hidden garden with a pond and deck for sitting and enjoying the evening and morning coffee. Breakfast (ordered the night before) had a reserved time (which was a bit odd) , but it made it more intimate and allowed the service to be more attentive. We would absolutely return!

I have been here 3 yrs in a row. The property is adult only with NO pets. Must be working, it was filled the 4 nights I was there. The staff is top notch. The koi pond is pure relaxation.

Nice experience- it grows on you:)

This place is well loved by the staff and their repeat customers who have been coming for years. It’s a quaint but comfortable inn for adults only and no pets which means quiet, which i loved! Breakfast is staggered- guests select time - this allows for a restaurant experience without chaos. People have already spoken about the well tended gardens and quality food. We rented two rooms. They did not have a frig but it appears some do. The beds are platform beds and sit low to the ground as well as standard toilets- not sure they are queen size? Seem more like double? Though the rooms are older they have uodated the decor- showers are smaller tiled. I felt very safe there. Great location- not too far from shops and shore-

The "secret" garden was very nice and we did not discover until our last night. The room was nice and clean. The bathroom was too small and dislike the size of the toilet. It was too low. Would like to see a comfort one. These old bones have difficulty.

Hidden Gem

Super clean and cute room. Motel style - but so much better. Quiet outdoor seating area and hot breakfast served on real cutlery! Access to common microwave is a plus, and even a common indoor library space for reading as well.
