Beautiful Home On A High Bluff Overlooking Lake Mich! Rates/Min Nt just reduced!

EMINENCE emi·nence
noun
Eminence is defined as a high, lofty place, an elevated land area, a piece of rising ground.

There is no better word to describe the location of this amazing property. The custom home, built in 2009, is situated high atop a bluff, just minutes from Ludington, and offers commanding views of Lake Michigan from nearly every room!

There are four bedrooms, including two master suites, both with king sized beds and full bathrooms. The master suite on the main floor provides direct access to your own private sitting area on the back deck overlooking the lake, inviting you to the day’s first cup of coffee. In addition to the suites, there are two other bedrooms, one with a queen bed and the other with four twin beds, which share access to the homes third full bathroom on the upper level. There is also a loft area furnished with a queen sleeper sofa.

The kitchen is superbly stocked for all your cooking and dining needs. There is an outdoor grilling space and fire pit too, perfect for s’mores as you watch another spectacular sunset reflect from the lake at the end of the day.

Enjoy the spacious living room for entertainment or just relaxing in front of the There is a lovely fireplace and 50” flat screen TV. The home is WiFi enabled and comes equipped with a washer and dryer as well. All the comforts of home await you!

New as of 1/1/2022....we now have a Ping Pong table, dart boards and card games in the basement for fun rainy / snowy day fun. We have tons of chairs down there. Great place to send the kiddos!

Note: We purchased this home in November 2015 and purchased all new furnishings. No weddings or events. Maximum of 12 guests. Our neighbors are full time residents and our guests shall respect the property lines at all times. We do not have any beach access. The beauty of our home is the view from atop the bluff.

We have a Ring Doorbell on the front porch and a Ring Camera on the back deck.

Thanks!

Amazing
From the moment we walked in the door we were wowed. The property was amazing and felt like home. The views from the back porch were so beautiful. We spent much of time sitting on the porch, watching sunrises, enjoying mid day sunshine and watching the sun fall into the sparkling lake. It was a close distance to town which was convenient. The owners were easy to communicate with and have a gem in this property.

Wonderful stay at this lovely home!!
From the moment we opened the front door we were all delighted with this beautiful home! Every room is welcoming and decorated to give a cozy feel. It was very clean and well stocked with all we needed. It was so peaceful to sit on the softly lit back porch in the evening or around the fire pit overlooking Lake Michigan from the bluff. There were 10 of us in our family and we liked having plenty of room and tables for games inside and out. The location is perfect, and we visited Ludington, Pentwater and Hart which were all nearby. Heidi is a wonderful host and got right back to us with any questions. We all loved our stay at Eminence and hope to come back again!!

Beautiful home and breathtaking views!
The property is the perfect oasis with the most stunning views of Lake Michigan up on the bluff. Heidi is very communicative and they want their guests to feel right at home. The beach access is about a mile down the street, the neighborhood is small and was quiet during our stay. I loved this property so much that I booked another trip to this home before I even left! Thank you Heidi and Wayne for sharing such a beautiful piece of Michigan lakeshore and opening up your vacation home for others to enjoy.
