Downtown’Delia House’ Recently Renovated - just a few blocks from Everything !

Welcome to the recently renovated and brand new on VRBO Delia House in Downtown Ludington (The USA/Today10Best 2024 #1 Historic Small Towns in the U.S.). Three blocks from James Street and less than a mile to the Stearns Park Beach. Walk or drive to the Jamesport, Ludington Brewery, the many restaurants, Red Rooster coffee shop or the other antique and interesting shops there on James Street. The downtown is 4 blocks away for shopping, restaurants and souvenirs. The marina and waterfrontk park are a short 4+ block walk as well as the famous Badger Ferry. Come back home after a day at the beach, shopping or exploring the many attractions around and relax on the covered front porch or the private backyard garden/patio deck. Grill on the new Blackstone grill, or the new regular 4 burner/smoker capable grill or cook in the well appointed and stocked brand new kitchen with five burner gas stove and all new stainless steel appliances . Let the kids or yourselves enjoy chess, dominos, back gammon or cards on the game table in the large living room, which also has a Double futon or watch the 55 inch smart TV. Upstairs in the bonus/entertainment/bedroom a great place for kids is a 50” smart TV, card table, many board games (located in the lower cupboard of buffet in dining room), dvd/vhs player with video library and twin and queen beds. The other upstairs bedroom has a queen bed and headboard with USB charging for your cell phone and ceiling to floor mirrored sliding doors to the closet, a large window to the front of the house and a smart TV. Each floor has a newly remodeled full bathroom. There is a backroom/workroom with washer and dryer affectionately named “The Museum” keeping the memory of our Granpa Barney’s house and the heritage of this 1900 era, built house. “The Museum” is as it was since it was built.
Visit the many beaches along North Lakeshore drive including Ludington State Park Beach and Dunes. On your way back stop at Stix Bar/Entertainment center, garden patio & pier and bowling. Find your way to Bortello’s Fish market for take out fish dinners or purchase smoked varieties of Salmon, White fish and Trout from what’s caught daily. Remember to take cash or check only. Ludington has a unique 1969 build Hydro dam you can visit on S. Lakeshore drive where the Lake Michigan water is pumped up to a reservoir and then released to the huge turbines down by the lake to produce electricity for the area. Following your hydro dam visit go south a short way to Bortello’s Fish Market. Just staying town for the day? Visit the unique stores and Restaurants or enjoy home made ice cream from House of Flavors and listen to the free music on one of Ludington’s downtown malls. There is so much to do in the Ludington area, so check out the Pure Ludington visitors guide we provide at Delia House.

Mother’s Angels Trip 2024
We had a great time in Ludington. The Delia House was very comfortable and clean. It was stocked very well with everything we needed. A little disappointed with the outside area, landscaping was not as good as we would have liked, it is a great place to stay walking distance from downtown and the beach Thanks for sharing your home with us.

Property was clean and well maintained. Host was responsive to an issue that came up and more than compensated us for the inconvenience. Would definitely stay again.

Perfect Stay
The house is very close to the main downtown shopping, dining, parks, beach. Inside of the house was very clean and organized, appeared recently renovated and included everything you would need for a short or long stay.

The Masons in Michigan
Two of the Mason "boys" (ages 80-78) and their wives made Ludington their home base for this years trip to Michigan. Our stay was very relaxing; we thoroughly enjoyed the hominess of our rental. We loved going to Stearns Park and out to eat. House of Flavors has the best ice cream. We were close enough to venture up to Traverse City for a day trip of shopping. Can't wait to come back next year.

Sweet house
Very, very cute house. Nicely updated with a charming mixture of old and new. You can feel the love of a family as soon as you walk in. Looks small from street view, but there is plenty of room. Very nicely stocked, kitchen, bathroom, etc. As a grandparent, I appreciated the "museum" room. There must've been wonderful family memories here.

Home away from home
The home felt as if we were staying with family. It was fully stocked with anything we would need and a lot of extra comforts and amenities. Everything was very clean and it is evident that there have been recent updates made in the home, making it feel fresh and new while also having some remnants of its character and history through the years. The location is excellent as far as being centrally located in Ludington. We were in town for the Gus Macker basketball tournament so we did have to drive closer to Stearns park to park and walk, but there are a lot of things in town that are a short walk or drive from the home. We were just a family of four, but this home would be comfortable for several more guests with a good amount of seating and the kids' area in the finished attic. All in all we have no complaints and would recommend the Delia house to anyone staying in the area.
