I couldn’t find the entry code on VRBO site but was able to contact owner and was given information. Owner was easy to work with! The home was fully stocked, anything we might need was right there. We used both pull out beds. We had trouble finding all the bedding. We are old school and prefer sleeping with both bottom and top sheets; only enough sheets were found for a bottom sheet. The bonfire chairs could use some cleaning;,also the front board on the bonfire deck came loose and fell over; needs repair. We were there for a family reunion nearby so we appreciated being so close. Thanks for sharing your space!

This place grew on us during our stay and we hated to leave on the day of our departure. The inside was well equipped for being able to cook and prepare meals. The outdoor furniture was dusty and we cleaned it off before using it. The inside was very tidy and the bed was super comfortable! I would definitely consider staying here again!

The Red Cabin Retreat was a 1st Class wxperience and exceeded our expectations on every count. The property was inviting, spotless and had everything we could want to ensure we were both entertained and able to relax. I highly recommend this particular property for anyone looking to truly escape the crowds and noise of the hotel chains.

Red Cabin delivers!!

We came to the area for my husbands disc golf tournament. Little did we know we had found the perfect haven of rest for our down time. Elly and Dave have created such a cozy nest. There is seriously EVERYTHING you need at the Red Cabin. Although this time we came only with the two of us, we could easily have hosted a gathering for with friends/family with the outdoor space provided- a gazebo for games, a carport converted into seating for many, a campfire for s’mores with chairs surrounding it,and 5 kayaks. Inside the cabin is cozy, cute and also well equipped. The kitchen is complete! And, I when I locked myself out, Elly answered on the first ring greeting me by name. I was back in the cabin in 5 minutes. Thank you Elly for everything!

Another pleasant stay!

This is our second time staying at the cabin and it was just as nice as the last. The cabin has everything you need and communication with the owner is always great. Neighborhood is nice and quiet so after a long day in downtown Ludington, it’s nice to come back to the peace and quiet.

Private and serene

This property is perfect for a romantic get away. It has all the amenities and more, just like being at home. Elly has gone out of her way to be accommodating to us. There are so many sitting areas in nature and the bonfire area was beautiful. It is wonderful that it has a covered area in case of rain. Perfect for morning coffee. We will probably be back our next trip to Ludington since everything is so close. Nice job!

Perfect Couples Retreat

The Little Red Cabin was a perfect destination for our romantic weekend getaway. Elly’s attention to detail was superb; everything was thought of. We had a great time making breakfast together in the kitchen, relaxing bye the fire, and flopping around the lovely little cozy cabin. We would 100% stay here again. Thanks for the memories!

We absolutely loved the red cabin in the woods. Has everything you could want. The weather didn't cooperate for us to enjoy outside however it was really nice to be able to just relax. The bed is very comfortable and soft. Highly recommend!

Awesome cabin for a great trip

What a wonderful cabin! No matter how long you stay, it won't be enough. So many neat touches throughout the cabin, was plenty big for our family of four. Long Lake is only 100 meters from the cabin - you can go fishing or kayaking - and there are plenty of options to explore local beaches and landmarks. Awesome place and Elly was a great host. Would definitely come back!

The property was decorated very nicely (great "upnorth" feel). The elderly man that showed us the property found out we were there for our honeymoon and offered us a free night which I thought was really sweet. They had absolutely everything you would need for a great stay there and although the cabin is not right on the property you are just a stone's throw away from a beautiful public access. In all fairness though I have to say it looked like it had been a while since the property had had a thorough cleaning. Other than that everything was wonderful.
