Policies for Cartier Mansion Bed and Breakfast
Please, take a few moments to review our policies prior to making a reservation with us. If you have any questions, give us a call.
What's Included?
Your stay includes breakfast daily and complimentary beverages and snacks. We also provide high speed Wi-Fi and most rooms offer SmartTVs.
Rates are based on the room type and are independent of the number of guests the room will accommodate. All rates are subject to change and may change without notice. Cartier Mansion Bed and Breakfast and The Ludington House reserve the right not to honor promotional rates or discounts published on third-party websites.
Parking
We offer complimentary parking in our private parking lots. Additional street parking is available on Lavinia Street. Street parking in the winter months is prohibited. Oversize vehicles should park on the street unless prior arrangements are made. Please respect other guests and only use one parking space, staying within the assigned area. If you are uncomfortable navigating a tight parking lot, we encourage you to use Lavinia Street parking.
Arrival and Departure
We know you're excited to see us and we encourage early arrivals! Although your room preparations may still be underway, we want you to enjoy your visit to Ludington. Feel free to arrive any time after 11am and we'll help you make the most of your day and get you into your room as soon as it's available, almost always earlier than the 3pm check-in time! You may use our parking lot after 11am; we ask that you leave luggage in your vehicle until your room is available.
We offer keyless entry throughout the property and will text you the code to use for building and room entrance throughout your stay.
Upon departure, we ask that you adhere to the 11am check-out time to ensure rooms can be cleaned and ready for arriving guests.
Children
As many of our guests are getting away for some respite and adult time. Cartier Mansion Bed and Breakfast and The Ludington House welcome guests age 21 and older.
Occupancy
All rooms are double occupancy and sleeping options are accordingly provided. Additional beds, air mattresses, etc. are prohibited. Violating this policy by bringing in more than two guests will result in immediate dismissal from the property without refund.
Smoking, Damages, and Cleaning Fees | SMOKE FREE CAMPUS
Due to the historic nature of our properties and for the health, safety, and comfort of our guests and staff, smoking, vaping, or anything of this nature is strictly prohibited anywhere, both indoors and outdoors, including private balconies. Any evidence of smoking, including a noticeable odor will result in a $300 cleaning fee and immediate dismissal from the property without refund.
No candles or open flames are allowed anywhere. All rooms are outfitted with a smoke/CO detector. Carriage House rooms have a sprinkler system. It is a Federal offense to tamper with fire safety equipment.
Normal wear and tear is understandable but damage caused by negligence or inappropriate behavior which requires repairs, replacement, or extra cleaning will be the financial responsibility of the guest registered to the room . Many historic items, irreplaceable antiques, works of art, and pieces of historical significance are present and must be treated carefully.
Cancellation Policy
Cartier Mansion Bed and Breakfast and The Ludington House are unique properties where each guest reservation is both important and special to us. The first night of your stay will be charged at time of booking to guarantee your reservation. If you must cancel your reservation, please call and/or email at least 7 days prior to arrival date. Excluding special offers or promotions, a full refund will be made if a cancellation is done properly.
If you cancel with less than seven days notice, shorten your stay (including early check-out), or do not arrive for your stay, you still take responsibility for the entire cost of your entire reservation. By reserving with us, you consent to these policies. We will automatically charge any balance due to the credit card on file no earlier than seven days before your arrival. If this card fails to process, we will attempt to contact you. Failure to respond in a timely manner may result in the loss of your reservation without refund.
Travel protection insurance is available through many firms and may be worth considering if you're concerned about cancellation fees.
Pet Policy
While we love dogs, we must respect the experience of all guests and therefore have policies in place to ensure everyone can enjoy their stay. Ultimately, our policy is tied to the comfort and safety of all guests and staff. Due to the historic nature of our property and presence of a resident pet, all outside dogs are prohibited from entering the main buildings at Cartier Mansion or The Ludington House; however, the Carriage House is small dog friendly (up to 40 lbs) and dogs may join you on the first floor porch at any time, including breakfast!
Dogs staying with us must have our prior approval and be up to date on their vaccinations. All dogs need to be on lead (or held) anytime they are on our grounds outside of the guest room. Pet parents must minimize or prevent barking, marking, defecating, jumping, or unwelcome friendliness towards other guests. Please remember, others may have allergies or hesitations about dogs and will not want to be around your dog. Any "accidents" must be cleaned by the pet's owner immediately.
There is a daily pet fee of $50, which includes several items and covers the cost of normal cleaning. $300 will be charged for extra cleaning necessitated by having an unauthorized pet in a room and excess cleaning/damage fees may apply.
Your dog may not be left unattended in the room to eliminate the possibility of disruptions to other guests, causing damage, or being in distress. Pet sitting services may be available with ample advance notice.
Bona fide service dogs are not considered pets and must accompany their owner at all times.
