Adorable Cottage

This was a perfect location for the "overflow" from my in-laws (who live less than a mile away). The cottage was so adorable and comfortable. The wonderful art was so much fun to look at and we loved the pottery (the in-laws said you make it). We would definatily use this place again if needed.

Quick trip to the beach!

My son wanted to visit the big water of Lake Michigan so we scheduled a quick trip! The weather was iffy the first and last day but managed to pull a sun shiny day for the beach! The house is gorgeous, well equipped and in a lovely area. Thank you for the nice stay!

Awsome location!

The house was clean and stocked nicely. We would definately stay again. Only issue we had was the lack of window treatments. The sun shines right in your face bet early in the morning. We hung up a hoodie and towels to fix this while staying there.

Best vacation experience

Sweetwater Bunkhouse is truly home away from home.we felt so comfortable right away even befor we stepped through the door. The setting is gracious, unpretentious, and inviting. We had everything we needed at our fingertips from the kitchen utensils, to linens, to tv remote. The neighborhood and nearby attractions were just right for the rest and relaxation we sought.Sweetwater Bunkhouse and Ludington is the perfect combination.

Another nice visit to Ludington

This is our first visit to the Bunkhouse, but our third stay with Amanda and Nathan. Normally we stay at their cottage, but it was already booked so we moved one block North to the larger bunkhouse. The neighborhood is the same, so no changes there. The bunkhouse is larger with 2 bathrooms, which is always convenient. The basement is large and had a dartboard, which came in handy on our one rainy day. The cabin was stocked with all of the basic necessities and nothing missing. We had a very good stay and will be back again next year. There were only 3 of us staying, but the bunkhouse can accommodate a much larger group, so we will probably try to stay in the cabin next year. However, I would have no issues staying in the bunkhouse again.

This place was perfect for our little family gathering for the week. Close to everything we needed. Cozy but big enough for us all to visit comfortably. The out door fit was awesome for the kids and the tree swing was a welcome sight for our grand child.

We were in town for a Michigan adventure race. It was 6 miles from Ludington State Park which was great for us as that was where the race started. The house was clean and the beds were comfortable. It’s very charming.

Cozy Cottage

Girls weekend. Accommodated 5 of us comfortably! Clean cottage. We had fun shopping downtown and dining and taking in a concert at Stix! Breakfast and ice cream at House of Flavors- the BEST! Sun bathing at Lake Michigan beach was a must!Unfortunately we didn’t have time to use the outdoor patio/grill or fire pit.

Great home for getaway

We decided on this home because it looked great in the photos and their dog friendly policy. It was a must for us. This location was everything we needed. Loved the fire pit and their front patio was my favorite for a chance to just sit, drink coffee and listen to the birds. We loved it!

We rented this place for the Gus Macker tournament…worked out well for that. This is a cute cottage and it was a comfortable place to stay for the 4 of us. There’s only one couch in the main living room so it would be hard for 7 people to relax there comfortably. Renters were very quick to answer our questions and accommodate our needs. I suggest buying or packing wood for the cute bonfire pit. My son had fun with the dartboard in the basement. No dishwasher available.

Partially Pet Friendly

Do not plan to leave your dog unattended at all. This ruined our entire trip. We could not go out as a family to any meals or anywhere that was not dog friendly. Even though I asked ahead of time if we could crate them and leave, which they said yes. Until I was told to come back because the neighbors heard barking.
