The location of this apartment is fantastic. When we visited, the weather was on the colder side, but I can easily see this being the perfect spot for warmer weekends. Being within walking distance to town, the beach, and the marina made for some really enjoyable morning walks. We were in town for a wedding, and being able to walk to and from the venue was a huge plus.
The rental itself was very nice. We loved the high ceilings and the fact that there was no one above us. Also, the unit smelled SO good. Always nice when walking back into the apartment. There's a lot of development happening in the area-- a new bar was just about to open right below the unit, which adds to the vibrant atmosphere.
The only downside was the checkout instructions. It felt unreasonable to be charged a hefty cleaning fee and still be asked to strip the beds and take out the trash. For the price, that should really be handled by the cleaning service.
Location was great! The space was clean and inviting.

The property is conveniently located near everything in downtown Ludington and just minutes from the beach. Check-in was straightforward and parking was excellent. The condo was tidy and had all we needed in terms of kitchen utensils for meals.

We liked the property, was nice, clean. The trucks at the ice cream distribution facility across the street were a bit noisy in the early AM. Other than that, it was very nice - we would definitely consider staying again. Just a thought, but they may consider changing the mattress, was a little too soft.
