We could bike anywhere we wanted from this property-to mountain bike trails, to Ludington State Park and beaches, to downtown and to Buttersville Peninsula. We also liked that it was at the beginning of the historical homes walking route. The beds were very comfortable and the surrounding gardens, koi pond and library were a nice feature.

Charming stay

The garden was a lovely oasis. The motel was a delightful reminder of simpler times. The included breakfast was a surprise. My only real disappointment was the weak coffee.

While the driveway and parking lot is kinda narrow, everything else about the Summer's Inn was amazing. The breakfast service was delicious, and the little koi pond was relaxing. The Inn is not too far from downtown, so we were able to go find places to eat very easy. It is also not very far from Stearns Beach, a free public beach that all the locals seem to congregate to to watch the sunset.

Hidden Gem

Super clean and cute room. Motel style - but so much better. Quiet outdoor seating area and hot breakfast served on real cutlery! Access to common microwave is a plus, and even a common indoor library space for reading as well.
