This was the perfect little quiet getaway cabin! The cabin was incredibly clean and well-stocked with the listed amenities. The king-size bed was very comfortable, and that bedroom had a quaint, relaxing theme. The location was perfect for our intended event in Manistee, but we also enjoyed being close to Ludington. We enjoyed the option to kayak on the nearby lake and the yard setup for activities.One of the selling points for us was that this cabin is down a paved road! We were in the area for a car show, so it was nice not to have to travel down a dirt road to get to the cabin for our stay. The hosts were very communicative about the check-in process and willing to be of assistance should we have needed it. We will definitely add this cabin to the top of our list for rebooking when we come back next June.

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.

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!

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!

The cabin that has it all

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!

Quaint cabin

1903 original log cabin with country /lake cabin theme decor! Loads of charm. Comfy king sized bed. Sleeps more than 2 but perfect for a couple. Lots of outdoor living space but the weather was too chilly in for us to take advantage. I’d stay again in a heartbeat!

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!

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!

This was our third stay at the Red Cabin. As always, it was perfect. Very peaceful and cozy. The cabin and the yard are set up and decorated so beautifully and in such a way, we felt at home. It's a very welcoming and relaxing environment. Lot's of great outdoor spaces for relaxing and enjoying the wooded area. We'll be back again.
