Convenient to the Lake Michigan Car ferry. We missed breakfast as we were leaving early to catch the ferry, but a continental breakfast was provided - boiled eggs, cheese, yogurt and an assortment of cold cereal and oatmeal as well as coffee and tea. Our room was comfortable enough with a small private bath. Off street parking was provided. If you like to sleep in dark rooms bring your eye mask. Street lights keep the room rather bright all night. Overall a good option.

Our stay at The Fresh Coast Inn was excellent. The space was clean and cozy with a lot of thoughtful touches. You can tell the owners care about making it a good experience. It’s in a great spot close to downtown Ludington and the beach. Communication was smooth, check-in was simple, and breakfast was awesome. We would definitely stay again.

Love this place! Always a great time, the only negative was we had a family with a child or two above us the second night and the child jumped and ran back and forth for about 5 hrs so our afternoon was not as peaceful and no nap happening after our morning out early shopping and exploring. This is not the Inns fault by any means so I still 100% would stay agin
