Historic Charm
We had a very nice time. The property was very nice and had historic charm. Parking spaces were a challenge, but workable. Everyone was extremely nice and helpful.

Jenna and Chris give you the 5-star treatment. It starts before you arrive and continues throughout your stay. Our room was amazing and the location just makes it better.
The breakfast was gourmet, with a variety that you would not expect.
We will definitely stay here again next time we head to Ludington.

Quick getaway to Ludington - Cartier Mansion
We did a quick midweek escape to Ludington and loved our stay at the Cartier Mansion. The building is a 1905 gem and the owners, Jenna and Chris do a lovely job of keeping the property in top shape. Nice breakfast and some really nice dining options in Ludington. The town has a number of terrific Victorian homes that make for nice walks in town. When you go, try to catch the lighthouse at Ludington State Park, a short drive north of town. We will definitely return. Nice job Jenna and Chris!

A very neatly restored old home and in particular carriage house, which is where we stayed. Breakfast was delicious and we really enjoyed our stay.

Super quaint, the attention to detail and workmanship is amazing. Everywhere you look is clean and well maintained. The rooms are newly remodeled yet they make it feel like it’s back in time with all the amenities and technology of today. Would highly recommend staying here.

Beautiful property, but if you are looking for the "personal" B&B touch, this may not be the property for you. Owners seemed too busy to offer that personal touch, as there are several rooms here. Breakfast was wonderful.

Beautiful, respectfully restored, with a consistent homage to the full history of the home. The renovated carriage house suites were unique, comfortable, and quiet.
