This was one of the best houses we have stayed in. It was clean , spacious and close to everything we want even the beach. The neighborhood is quiet and beautiful. Everyone was so friendly. I would definitely stay here again . Thanks to our wonderful host and thanks for the great communication.
The light house manor was a great stay for my family reunion. There were rooms for everyone, a large kitchen and plenty of bathrooms. The kids loved the hot tub and games. We could walk to the beach, or just hang out on the huge porch. It was an excellent stay. Very family friendly.Cons: the doors and floors squeak a lot. Not ideal for light sleepers. Pros: so much room to spread out and plenty of space to enjoy. Best stay to date.
Family friendly. Loved the walk to the beach and town could not have asked for a better week with family. Thank you! Hot tub and game room were spectacular.
This property is well worth checking out. We were up north for my son’s wedding. The spaciousness was great for getting ready. The house is so close to the beach and lighthouse it was great for our down time. House was very clean. Plenty of towels. Great game room. I would recommend and looking at renting it again. 10 out of 10!
We had 10 guests and the house was perfect for everyone’s accommodations. Perfect location for the Ludington Lake stride half marathon. Everyone had an enjoyable weekend and everyone said we must do this house again next year.
There was plenty of room, things to do, places to sleep, etc in this excellent property. Even on a cold dreary weekend.

Hi Roger,
Thank you for the great review! We’re so glad the space, sleeping arrangements, and activities worked well for your family stay. It’s always our goal to provide a comfortable and enjoyable experience for groups, and we’re happy to hear it was a good fit. We’d love to host you again in the future!
We enjoyed the easy access to the beach and many activities. Our blended family enjoyed the game room with air hockey/pool table, camp fire and grilling dinners. We had ample room and enjoyed the outside sitting areas too. It was great.
This home is prefect for a large family. It’s beautiful and functional. Large rooms, game rooms, large 10 person table for dining and extra chairs. Large kitchen and bathrooms. This is one of my favorite rental homes. I love it! Well appointed and attention to detail everywhere. Class act!
This home was very well equipped and in an ideal location in a lovely residential neighborhood with a short walk to the beach and to downtown businesses. We had ample space for our family group of 14 which included two toddlers and an infant. This was a great choice for us and we look forward to returning!

We are glad you had a great trip John, we'd love to have you back!
Our family had such a wonderful vacation at this house! We’ve been coming to Ludington for years and this is the first time we’ve felt like we had enough space and everyone in the group was really comfortable. The games in the house were great to keep kids entertained (and fun for adults, too) and there was plenty of space for people of all ages to spend time in, separately or gathered together. The location can’t be beat! We loved it here and are looking forward to coming back next summer.

We loved hosting you Melissa! Thanks for the kind review!
Hello. This was one of the nicest properties we have stayed at using VRBO. It was perfect for our family. It is nicer than the pictures indicate. We were so happy upon our arrival. The owners have taken excellent care of this house and every room and bed was so comfortable. We will visit again.

Thank you so much for your kind words! We’re absolutely delighted to hear that our home exceeded your expectations and helped make your stay so enjoyable. It means a lot to know that you found the house even nicer than the photos, and that it was a perfect fit for your family. We take great pride in keeping everything comfortable and well cared for, so your feedback truly means the world to us. We’d love to welcome you back anytime!
Beautiful updated home with original details adding to its charm. The Ashby's have worked hard to create a welcoming vacation home within walking distance of the beach and lighthouse. Too many great things to possibly mention. Absolutely gorgeous. Highly recommend.
We had a family gathering in Ludington with our four children's families and the house served us well. The open floor plan on the first floor provided lots of open space for us all to be together while there were enough rooms for privacy. If you enjoy interestingly repurposed grand legacy houses, this is the place for you. You also can't beat the short walk to the beach and House of Flavors!

Thank you for sharing your experience! We're so happy the home worked well for your family gathering and that you enjoyed both the open layout and the unique character of the house. It’s great to hear that the location near the beach and House of Flavors added to your stay—definitely two of our favorite local gems! We’d be honored to host your family again in the future.
We hosted a summer work retreat, and loved the accommodations.
There was plenty of seating, both for dining and lounging.
The location was walkable both to the lake and downtown Ludington.
We only had one small inconvenience that 2 of the bedroom doors are barn doors, therefore lacking in privacy (which made it a touch uncomfortable while staying with colleagues).
All in all, we had a wonderful time!

Thanks for being a great guest Michele! We actually have now changed the barn doors to a regular door!
