We have stayed at the Lakeside Inn on 3 different occasions over the past 2 summers. We love the owners, we love the location, we look forward to going back in the summer of 2012. Sure the rooms are not on par with Marriott or Fairfield Inn. It is a courtyard type motel from the 40s. That is part of... More

This isn't the fanciest or most modern place but it's sufficient and affordable. It was clean and comfortable and right across from Lake Michigan. There were no musty smells and the bathroom was fine. It's within walking distance of the downtown area.The other reviews on this site I found to be unsubstantiated. More

If I could rate this as negative stars it would be more appropriate. This place should be shut down! We arrived and were greeted by a fairly rude woman, who then charged us 1069.00 for our room in error and had no idea how to fix her mistake. After she called help, we were given the keys to the dirtiest... More

My trip was completely different ...Although the property was dated, it was very well maintained and cleaned. It was convenient to the beach and skatepark and the pool was very nice! We did not want donuts for breakfast just the hot coffee that was provided. We plan on staying at Lakeside again ... the staff was very nice! More

Family of 5 stayed one night. Very small, smelly, dirty bed covers, bathroom was terrible. One small bar of soap, no shampoo, etc. Not even an outlet in the bathroom. Staff was not friendly at all. Pillows were so bad, I went to Walmart and bought some new, cheap ones just so I could sleep through the night. Never touched... More

The room seemed as though it had been closed up for years - very overpowering musty smell. It did not help at all to open the door and the window to air it out. Our clothes still smelled after we returned home. It was too late to look for another room. I had a hard time falling asleep. The mattresses... More

Horrible, horrible. We found bed bugs in the morning and I've never been so disgusted. Even a week later, after laundering or throwing out everything we brought into the room, I can't sleep well in my own bed. The experience ruined my vacation and is still haunting me. More

My wife, two kids and my sister and her two kids were looking forward to a nice stay in Ludington where we have traveled many times before. We booked at the Lakeside Inn well in advance for a three night stay. When we arrived it was late in the day about 6pm and everyone was hungry. We paid for our... More

We made late reservations and all other places near the SS Badger didn't have a vacancy so we had little choice but to stay at this dive. The other reviewers are absolutely right on. I have never smelled anything so moldy as this place. The only ammenities are two cheap bars of soap, not even shampoo. The sheets and towels... More

The lakeside inn of ludington is the worst motel I have ever stayed at. We spent close to 800 dollars for two rooms for the weekend. The rooms were smaller than my dorm my first year of college. The worst part about this motel is the owners. The owners called the girls in my motel room "sluts" and also shoved... More
