Too bad the house isn’t in the country. Small room and very small bathroom. Room 5. The house is indeed historical, but the rooms could be updated.

This place is truly one of a kind. I’ve stayed here before with my husband in the first floor room and it was amazing and this time we brought our kids and stayed in the family room on the top floor and it was no less amazing. The room was great and they’d thought of everything. Yes, older properties can have a few quirks, but that just adds to the charm in my opinion. It was clean and beds were comfortable. Breakfast was great and they were very accommodating for the kids and they also offer snacks all day long which my kids probably ate most of! My daughter and husband enjoyed playing chess in the dining room and all my kids loved the experience and will be talking about it for some time! Great place to stay in Ludington!!

Breakfast was wonderful. Our room was okay but back stairs seemed a little unsafe. AC was load and some of the blinds did not work well. Shower water pressure was weak and hot water stopped working. Too many stairs

Loved everything about it except the "front" staircase. 2 seniors banging bags and balancing up the twisty, dark staircase near the "front" entrance. Not easy for low vision or mobility challenged folk. We had no issues navigating the main staircase in the building. We discovered it only after struggling up and selling in. Great opportunities for improvement here if only signage directing to the other stairs. Other than that, we really enjoyed the place! Recommended.

Excellent B&B experience overall. Quaint. Friendly. Good breakfast with perfect accommodation of gluten insensitivity. Parking lot is tidy with easy in and out. Bathroom was tiny, but that is expected in an old home. Biggest negative was an uncomfortable bed.

This Inn is best viewed at a distance. Overall the Inn needs maintenance and upgrades. The bed in our room was old and creaky to the point that it kept us awake. A lot of road noise as well. Breakfast at 9 AM. Unfortunately, no coffee available or breakfast and we needed to get on the road. We left and ate elsewhere. They were understaffed apparently. We wouldn’t stay here again.
