Beach Vacation in Yes Ludington Michigan
Ludington is a harbour city on Lake Michigan, specifically
on the mouth of the Pere Marquette River. It's the 5th most
popular tourist destination in Michigan, thanks to the sandy
beaches, nostalgic lighthouses and the array of activities
it has to offer. While taking in the sights of this quaint
city, you will be charmed by the warm friendliness of the
people - not just for show! This is where you'll experience
small-town living, and hospitality, at its finest.

Stroll down the quaint bustling streets of downtown, you are
certain to find gems among the shops. Ludington offers
everything from antiques, clothing stores, jewerly and
outdoor gear to mention a few. Who can stroll the
streets of downtown with visiting some great local foods and
cusines, with local hospitality and friendliness included.
Be sure to visit Maude's Garage, a 1930's era converted auto
repair shop and Fort Daul, and truly unique gift shop with
early American murals.

The Historic White Pine Village lets you experience
Ludington's history in real time. It consists of about 25
well-preserved buildings, featuring exhibits and themes such
as sports, farm life, education, business, transportation
and health - basically what life was in the late 1800s to
the mid 1900s. After this nostalgic journey to the past,
have some refreshments at the Old Fashioned Ice Cream Parlor
at the Village's Town Hall, or browse the Gift Shop for
something of the past to bring back home with you. Your
vacation to Ludington won't be complete without a visit to
the famous lighthouses, which give you an insight of the
city's deep maritime history. These well preserved
lighthouses helped guide the boaters and their vessels from
Lake Michigan to the harbor. Be sure to check out the North
Breakwater Lighthouse at Stearns Beach, Big Sable Point
Lighthouse, North Pierhead Light& South Pierhead Light, and
the Little Sable Point Lighthouse. While you're
contemplating about the historical significance of each
lighthouse, you'll be delighted to learn that they are all
excellent photographic subjects as well.

If the call of the wild is more of your thing, visit the
Amber Elk Ranch, a sprawling 130-acre farm where you can see
hulking bull elks, yearling elks and cow elks while on board
a wagon pulled by a farm tractor. You'll also experience
how it is to feed the elks, when the wagon pauses in the
middle of the tour. Children will appreciate wildlife and
animals more in the petting zoo, where they can see donkeys,
pot-bellied pigs, turkey, pygmy goats and other animals - up
close and personal. You can bring home part of your
experience at the ranch-just check out their gift shop
called the Antler Shed and choose from their array of
stuffed animals, antler decor, rustic but well-crafted
furniture and other antler products.
