This is a charming Bed and Breakfast in a lovely part of Ludington. Each morning there was a large selection of breads, fruit, pastries and that day's egg dish. The hosts are exactly what you would hope for in friendless, attention to details and being very responsive. read more

Chris and Jenna have designed a very charming and historic place to feel welcomed. They are dedicated to providing gourmet breakfasts, making the history at Ludington House come alive through the stories they tell, and most of all welcoming you into their home. Every little detail is carefully tended to. We enjoyed the talk, given by Jenna, about the people who lived in this house. They both had good suggestions for us as to what else to see. Highlights were: the Maritime Museum, hiking the nearby state parks and simply watching people pass by as we ate ice cream downtown. read more

I picked this place because I was looking for a place that can accommodate 4 people in 1 room, so I booked the Wicker Room with 2 queen beds. None of us had ever stayed at a bed & breakfast before, and this for sure was a fabulous first experience! "Charming" is a good way to describe it, as others have mentioned. This place is in amazing condition and really clean and well-taken care of despite being built in 1878! Ellen gave us a quick tour and brief history upon our check-in. Original floors and fireplace - how cool! The room was well-prepared for us and super clean! You can feel the air get hotter as you climb to the 3rd floor, but the rooms are air conditioned. Some of the smaller rooms have old-school bath tubs instead of showers, and they are IN the room, just blocked off with a partition or curtain. The Wicker Room has a small bathroom with a shower. The toilets are a little tricky to flush - you have to hold the handle down for more than a few seconds and just when you think it's going to overflow, it flushes strongly and everything is OK again! The main floor has a living room that is a common area for guests to sit and read, play games, or chat. It's adjacent to the dining area that has a coffee bar available 24/7 (Keurig machine and tea bags available), as well as an ice machine and some cookies to snack on. Bob and Ellen accommodated our early breakfast request at 8am instead of the usual 9am, since we were visiting for an event that we needed to be at by 9. The breakfast was made with such care and lovely presentation. I especially loved the fresh fruit topped with homemade granola and fresh whipped cream. The location is perfect - walking distance, just a couple of blocks to the main drag of downtown. We had bikes with us, so we rode from here to the pier at the end of the street. I would definitely stay here again when visiting Ludington. read more

We LOVED our stay at Ludington House! Bob and Ellen are so sweet and the house is beautiful. We caught a winter sunset on the frozen shoreline. It was the perfect birthday getaway. I highly recommend staying here! Breakfast was delicious and our room was beautiful! read more

The Ludington House - Bed & Breakfast Near Me - Ludington, Michigan

My husband and I loved our visit here a few weeks back. The inn was wonderful, the room was great and the innkeepers were the best. We noticed that all the rooms were tastefully decorated as we were given a tour of the inn. The whole inn has a wonderful aura. Breakfast was very good both mornings we were here, and my husband loved the french-pressed coffee. Town is just a very short walk down the road and the lakeshore a little ways beyond that. Anytime we are looking to stay in Ludington, this is our inn of choice. read more

My friend and I had a lovely stay. It was charming and very close to everything. It's an old historic house so it's a little creaky. Our room was nice but the bathroom was very small. The breakfast in the morning was amazing!! read more

Charming B&B run by a charming couple. Mom and I spent one night on our Michigan road trip this summer. They're just a couple blocks off the "main drag" so there's a bit of traffic going by, but it was quiet while we were there and it was easy to walk down the the restaurants and shopping. They have a small off-street parking lot so you can leave your car with peace of mind. They were very great about accommodating our schedule, and really helpful when I screwed up our reservation the first time I made it. The inn itself is very well kept and comfortable. We stayed on the third floor, and though the stairs were a little narrow to navigate with suitcases, the room was just as nicely done as all the others and the A/C kept the room from getting too warm or stuffy. Nice linens and pillows made for a good night's sleep. Breakfast in the morning was very tasty, well presented, and served with delicious coffee and pleasant conversation. Everything you'd expect from a B&B. read more

Luddington House was wonderful!! We stayed in the skylight room, and it was so cozy and filled with homey touches. They gave us homemade cookies and homemade soap. The mattress and the tub were delightful. The breakfast was scrumptious, with caramalized oranges, yogurt, and pistachios, followed with peach snhnapps french toast, with orange juice and fresh coffee. We're already looking forward to our next stay! read more

My friend booked this and we had a wonderful time. The beds were comfy and the rooms were clean. Bob and Ellen were accommodating and our breakfast was awesome. I would stay here again in a heart beat. read more

We just completed our stay for the New Year weekend. Bob and Ellen were amazing hosts and we loved learning about the history of the Inn as well as spending time by the fireplace in the evening with a cup of coffee. We had a third floor "skylight" room which was very cozy and immaculate. The Breakfast...ohhh the breakfast...Both days were amazing! We have nothing but rave reviews about our stay and we will be back again. Thanks for a great weekend! read more

The Ludington House Bed and Breakfast was offered last year on Groupon. I knew we would be making a visit to family so decided to purchase the offer. It was such a beautiful property and the hosts were extremely welcoming and gracious. I hadn't been to Ludington since I was a small child. The town was very quaint with lots of antique shops and restaurants just a few blocks away from the bed and breakfast. The history of the house was explained as we were shown around the property. The owners lived on site and everything was very well maintained . The room we chose was spacious, and lovely antique items were carefully placed around the room, I had chosen the room got the claw foot tub and the foot bath which were both in working order and which I used much to my relaxation and delight. One of the owners had just gotten out if the hospital after having suffered a heart attack and open heart surgery . They had a wonderful helper but I can only imagine doing all the routine chores was tiring. The breakfasts we enjoyed were fabulous. Everything home made and served with French press coffee. Bottom line is the area is beautiful , the home is beautiful and the service was exquisite . Give Ludington a try, I think you will really enjoy it. We plan to return . read more

My wife and I just returned from two very comfortable and memorable nights at the Ludington House B&B. As fans of historic B&Bs, we look for a number of things. Architectural integrity, well-documented history (preferably a home of some significance to the area), location, aesthetics, character, and of course price. This place won us over on all fronts. Run by a very nice older couple, this B&B was once the home of a lumber baron. Built in 1878, it retains so much of its original character, down to the stained glass windows and ornately-designed door hinges, radiators, and doorknobs. The home is known for its composition of many types of wood. Woodwork here is intricately carved and meticulously preserved. Our room, the Blue Room, was perfect for us. A queen bed with very comfortable blankets, and a large window with a perfect view of the house across the street (built by one of the sons of the original owner of the home). It snowed almost constantly while we were here and the view from the window was like a dream. The bathroom is a modified closet and so it is rather small. We didn't mind, since we understand how difficult it could be to retrofit a bathroom from a closet, and we give props to whoever managed to get it to work in the first place! Its location is conveniently located in the historic residential part of town (and surrounded by other majestic old mansions), not far from downtown. The den is warm and cozy and guests are welcomed to use it for reading, tea/coffee, or just to sit and listen to the music. Books, magazines, and newspapers are available. Homemade cookies are stocked. And the breakfasts are very good too. I've never had roasted grapefruit before. I hate grapefruit, but roast it, serve it warm, and sprinkle some brown sugar on it and it's a whole different story! The Ludington House Inn is highly recommended if you wish for a quiet, relaxing getaway in a small town. We found the price to be very affordable (we also had a Groupon). read more

My husband and I stayed there last Labor Day and are already planning our trip for this year. It was such a unique & quiet place to stay. It was a great departure from the chain hotels. We did have some rain while we were there, but we sat in the parlor and played board games and drank coffee. It was lovely all the way around. We told all of our friends and family, and will definitely be back. By the way, the breakfast was AWESOME! read more

We just got back from our Michigan vacation, and I was itching to review this bed and breakfast. I have done quite a bit of traveling with my mother, and we love to check out bed and breakfasts around the country. I have to say that this one is one of the best I've seen. I love old homes, and this is one definitely fits the bill. The owners, Bill and Kris, do a wonderful job running it. The home is big enough so you don't feel like you're crowded by other guests but oh so cozy and beautiful. Every room (I think there were 8?) is absolutely beautiful, and each has something different to offer. Breakfast was delicious, and Kris is full of wonderful ideas for things to do while you're in town (and what a cute town). What I enjoyed best about this bed and breakfast is that these two have done a great job of preserving the historical feel of the home but not at the expense of comfort. Often times I've comes out of a bed and breakfast with a bad back, freezing, or dying to watch a little news on tv. These rooms are equipped with wonderful mattresses, small tvs, little cookies for snacks, and wonderful old-style bathtubs (the original tub is still in the rose room). I will definitely be back, and I would recommend this old home to anyone coming through Ludington. read more

This historical Inn was lovingly maintained. The owners were friendly and the breakfast was thoughtfully planned. The living room was relaxing by the fireplace as we read and placed a few pieces in the jigsaw puzzle by the front window. We stayed in room 8 which was at the top of two flights of narrow stairs on the 3rd floor. The shower was in a redesigned closet and if your BMI was above normal you may not be able to get in but then the exercise getting to the third floor might make a difference. All joking aside, we had a great experience. read more

This was our first B & B stay so we can't make any comparisons, but we really enjoyed our stay here! Our room (Rm 6) was charming and comfortable, the innkeepers where friendly, and the breakfast was tasty. We also liked learning about the history, sitting by the fireplace in the living room, and that each room had it's own bathroom (I am expecting so this was a must). My husband also liked the complimentary "help yourself" brandy. This is a short walk to downtown and we enjoyed ourselves even in the off-season. Our room was on the 3rd floor, but we didn't mind the exercise and it seemed nice and private on the top level. The only things that could have improved our stay would be a stronger wifi connection on the top floor and a firmer mattress -- but overall it still earns 5 stars. read more
