Spiderwick

Not a great first impression. Weeds in the flower area, lots of spider webs around property and some inside. Dead bugs in door frames. They had kayaks but to get them to the water would be tough with the gravel road and hills.Hot tub nice.

cabin getaway

The house was cute and the location was beautiful, although a little farther from town than we had thought. There was plenty of room to park our boat and launch at nearby ramps. The only disappointment was the hot-tub which was not very clean, so we did not use it like we had planned.

We loved our time at the Arrowhead Cabin, the pictures do not do it justice! So beautiful inside and outside. If you like to cook, the cabin is perfectly stocked. The hot tub was great after long days of hiking and beach. The Ludington area is so beautiful with so much to do, I would definitely stay here again and recommend.

A peaceful, private getaway

This A-frame cabin had everything we needed - nothing more and nothing less - for a quiet week away to enjoy the beautiful scenery and outdoor fun that Michigan has to offer. The private location, while off the paved road in a peaceful spot in the woods, was a great jumping off point to get to many interesting towns and lakes. The host was very attentive and kind and provided everything for a comfortable stay. We wouldn’t hesitate to return for another visit!

It was a quiet and relaxing setting in the woods. The cottage had all the amenities that you could ever want or need. Additionally,, it was very, very clean and welcoming. The beds were very comfortable as well. We love Ludington State Park and it was a short drive there, so we could hike and kayak there!! Arrowhead did not disappoint!
