This property is basically a unit right next to a private residence. Not only was it so close to the residence but it was NOT CLOSE at all to Bass Lake. The road to the unit was poorly lit, poorly maintained and very windy. We wanted to have easier access to Bass Lake so this property was not right for us. Paid the full booking but only stayed 1 Hour and checked out.

BAD LOCATION
The property description is not clear. This unit it way too close to the main property and in a very rural, remote part of the Bass Lake area. Getting to civilization is not quick nor convenient. I checked in and then checked out and lost all of money reservation $$$. Very disappointed. Didn't stay more than an hour.
