I have been staying at Cottage # 1, for over 20 years! My all time favorite place to stay while in the Ludington area. The host/manager of cottage is wonderful. Within easy walking distance to Stearns Park Beach and North Pier Lighthouse and close drive into shops, restaurants, bookstores, and the Ludington State Park, where you will find another beach, beachhouses, and the Hamlin Dam, Hamlin Lake, Lost Lake, etc... Miles of Lake Michigan Beach.
