HOT TUB:
Our ultra clean hot springs hot tub goes up to 104 degrees. The hot tub features 2 built in back message seats and a top of the line filtration system. Don't forget to dip in at night for some star gazing and watching the freighters come in-and-out of Ludington port. The freighters look like Cruise ships at night.

2. Stearns park located downtown Ludington ( 15 min away) large beach handicap accessible walk ways.

Fall Break Getaway
We looked at several homes during our October Break and so happy we chose this one. The heated pool was amazing in October. Lewis Farms was a huge hit with the kids. Ludington State park hikes to see all the amazing changing colors. This house was perfect for the 4 families - plenty of space, fully stocked and just so comfortable all around! Shawn and Naomi were wonderful answering all my questions (and I had a ton) :) Nothing we would have changed at all. Even in October the beach was perfect - we setup games down there and had a great time. (hike down to the beach - so we limited what we took down there) - but the views from the house, pictures of the sunset were unbelievable. What a wonderful time to travel to Ludington Michigan and a perfect house to host us all!

Expectations set and met!
We used all seven bedrooms and both kitchens. Our private chef loved the main kitchen setup as well. Hot tub and salt water pool were just great. Parking space for all cars was really nice. I passed along a few suggestions to the owner that were happily received. This is a property worth returning to if the need arises.

Awesome family vacation!
What a fantastic week in Ludington! The house is everything we hoped it would be -- and more. Perfect for larger family gatherings (we had 10 adults and 5 kids for the week). Plenty of room, tons to do, the heated saltwater pool was an excellent change of pace from the beach. Absolutely recommend this property. Shawn and Naomi (and Ashley) are great hosts!

Exceptional in Every Way / Family Reunion to Remember
Our family group (we also had sister property-same hosts/owners, see Suites A/ Ludington review) of all ages was so comfortable, entertained and delighted by this beautiful home. We are not strangers to higher-end rentals, but this was the first time we were greeted by stocked paper products, laundry supplies, and even a stocked beverage fridge... and all the little extras that make vacation start the minute you unpack. As welcome as that was, the magnificent views out the back of the home toward the medium dune and beach/big lake were to-die-for! Even on the single overcast day! The young ones loved the pool toys, and many of us enjoyed the paddleboards and kayaks on the beach (do NOT fear the 101 beach steps....I'm 66 yrs old and had no issues). The sand was so soft and the water crystal clear and shallow for yards and yards. The provided beach towels were so useful for the families flying in for the week, as it helped limit their need to pack some from home. The pool and hottub were in perfect working order and spotless. Cooking large meals for our group was so easy given the quality of appliances and smart kitchen layout. The owners responded very promptly and courteously to our occasional inquiries. And the 220V line in the garage to charge EV's was so handy. We CANNOT WAIT to visit again!

Daniels Family 3rd Annual Family Vacation Getaway
Awesome setting, awesome house, awesome hosts, exceeded expectations. Perfect fit for our family group of 8 adults and 10 children ranging in age from 3-15. Secluded but close enough to Ludington main drag and Wal-Mart and Meijer, etc. for shopping needs. We enjoyed the view, the playthings, the heated pool, and kayaking and paddleboarding from the beach below. We also enjoyed the things to do around the house around our stay. We started our stay with a drive up from the Chicago area to Manitowoc, WI where we took the historic SS Badger car ferry across Lake Michigan to Ludington and a short drive to the house. While staying at the house, we visited the Ludington Breakwater Lighthouse, the Big and Little Sable Lighthouses, and the Ludington pumped hydroelectric power plant. On our drive back to the Chicago area around the lake, we visited the Big Red Lighthouse in Holland, Michigan. Great vacation experience! Would recommend to others.

Bachelorette Weekend Trip
Our stay was amazing at this property. We had a girls bachelorette party with 16 people. We had enough space to hang throughout the day and the room and beds were very comfortable! The pool and hot tub were perfectly heated & the view to the beach made for some great pictures!!! Getting to and from the beach was a little hard & we didn’t let our pregnant friends go down there, but if you take your time it’s worth it! The sand is so soft ! We would definitely stay here again & maybe even bring kids this time - the house was well equipped for families with little ones!

The house had everything we could ask for and more. It’s a short drive to downtown Ludington from the house, which is a really neat beach town.

FANTASTIC FAMILY VACATION SPOT
We LOVED our stay at Blue Waters Edge. For years, we had wanted to rent a house on Lake Michigan...this was the perfect house for our family. Shawn and Naomi, our hosts, were wonderful in providing so many amenities at the home...like fully stocked kitchens (including sippy cups and other children's dishes), games, pool toys, beach toys, life jackets in all sizes and toys in the house for our grandchildren (we have 11). The pool was warm, the view was just beautiful, and the beach lovely and quite private. As others have said, it is a bit of a hike down the hill and back up. But once down there, it is so nice! We used Gloria Ann's Catering which was wonderful! We contacted her before our trip and set up our menu. She delivered our supper each night at 5:30. It was so nice for all the moms to have a break from meal prep...and we had lots of leftovers for lunch the next day. The one thing we would suggest is bringing water shoes to wear around the pool area where there are bees who like the salt water on the deck around the pool. We would highly recommend this home for your family--the hosts have thought of everything. The Miller Family Angola, Indiana

The house was beautifully laid out and appointed to accommodate our multigenerational family. Our hosts were immediately responsive to any questions we had with helpful tips about the area. The photos don’t do justice to the beauty of the views from every room! The only downside is the access to the beach. It’s a physically challenging climb back up! We would definitely recommend this property. The pool and the hot tub were our family’s favorites.
