About this property

A private dock, secluded cove, large deck, lots of parking, amazing lake view.

This cabin can accommodate 14 guests, with 3 private bedrooms, 3 baths, and two loft sleeping areas. It is the perfect location for a whole family trip or a vacation with friends.

Whether you choose to stay in the winter or summer months, this getaway cabin has so much to offer guests looking for a priceless lakefront vacation experience.

The living room is fit to entertain guests with cable TV and a free-standing wood fireplace.

A trip to the lake wouldn’t be complete without your own private dock. The dock is located in a private cove away from noise and waves from boat traffic. In addition to exclusive dockside access there is a horseshoe pit next to the dock. The dock accommodates two boats and two jet skis if you chose to bring watercraft! If swimming isn’t your thing, 2 separate decks offer the perfect setting for sunbathing, relaxing, and taking in the stunning view of the lake and surrounding mountains. Please also enjoy during the summer months (June-August only) 2 kayaks, so please bring your life vest!

Getting hungry? Enjoy watching the sunset while cooking a homestyle meal on the large propane grill.

Depending on winter rainfall, the lake will be full from late-April into September. After Labor Day, the water levels decline and we can not guarantee that the water will be up to the dock.

Amenities include: WiFi, Cable TV, Wood Burning Fireplace, Microwave, Dishwasher, Washer/Dryer, Coffee Maker, Central Heat & Air Conditioning.

This cabin also has plenty of parking for family and guest. That's normally a problem up at Bass Lake. But we can fit easily 8 cars.

Great house, lots of land, great views, great location

So much to like about this house. Beautiful views from the deck, which was a great place to eat breakfast. There are tables by the water, tables on the dock. Dock is a convenient place to tie up the boat. Plus, the host contacted me a few days before check-in and said we could check in whenever we wanted, we didn't have to wait until 4pm. So we checked in in the morning.

Excellent location

We enjoyed using the kayaks and paddle board that was available for us to use. The lake was just a short walk away. Ample room in the kitchen for all of us to enjoy meals together. The fact we had two refrigerators for our use was very useful. We had a terrific week!

Had a wonderful time

We loved the house lots of parking and the beach area and dock were great. The only problem was the trash situation, maybe a metal bear proof enclosure and an extra trash can. We would love to come back. The kids had so much fun at the dock, and the jet ski parking and boat docking was great, we spent most of our day at the lake, loved it. It was nice to have A/C and wi-fi the boys all brought there nintendo switch and they could all play together, that kept them occupied they loved it. Having the separate bedroom area for the adults was great, you could go in the bedroom and it was nice and quite. Having 2 refrigerators worked out well. Lots of seating in the living room we could all watch tv or play games together,Thank you for sharing your house with us.

Great location and amenities on the lake

We had three couples and four teens for a family Thanksgiving. The kitchen was well stocked. We cooked Thanksgiving dinner with no problem. The kitchen table seated 10. There are three private bedrooms with queen beds and plenty of room for luggage etc.. The loft area slept the four teenagers easily. There are also three full bathrooms. We did not use the upper loft area that had two more beds. The family room was tight for 10 of us, but it worked. It would be really tight for any more guests if everyone wanted to be in the family room together. The cabin is a bit worn down and the decor is outdated, but the location is great and Tammy was very communicative and easy to deal with. We drove to Yosemite, which was about an hour and a half to Curry Village and the main attractions. There is a small town about 5 miles away if you need groceries or gas. All in all we enjoyed our stay!

Quaint Cabin With Wonderful Location

We stayed over the weekend to relax!We were about an hour from Mariposa Grove so it made visiting Yosemite, even during Firefall, a breeze! Tammy was very communicative and receptive to our needs and the kitchen was way more stocked than we had anticipated. Amenities were pretty good, taking into factor what she told us to bring, and the bedrooms were very nice. We were 11 people and still managed to all feel like there was enough room to be in our own corners, enjoy our time together, bond, and have fun!Also a prime location between popular fishing spots if you do that!

We had a family camping trip, we totally loved it. The cabin was clean and so spacious for a big family, we loved the deck outside with lighting and down the walk way to the dock was beautiful. We would hang out at night on the deck and just laugh the night away with no interpretation just peace and quiet. Bass Lake is beautiful we did some fishing and rented a boat and tube, it was so much fun! If your looking for a nice, relaxing and spacious cabin this is the one. Thank you so much for this beautiful experience!

Amazing Summer Fun at Bass Lake

The property is very well maintained. The dock and lower deck are well appointed with tables, chairs and umbrellas. The deck off the house as well has many seating options. Although the cabin does not have a lot of square footage it easily accommodated our group of ten. The lofts were great options for our late teens / young adults while the adults were very comfortable in the the 3 bedrooms. One of our young adults mentioned that this was the best house we have ever rented. He and the others especially liked the easy access to the lake and the ability to use many water toys. While sitting on the deck just outside the house you feel nestled amonst the pines and have a wonderful sense of the surrounding mountains and just moments down the path you are immediately immersed in lake life with great water views. We had a great time and are looking forward to returning next year. A wonderful place to make memories.

Beautiful Property

This is an older house, but the kitchen is very well stocked and the property itself is great. It is a walk down to the lake, but the path is well maintained. There are also many steps to the house and inside the house. The outside areas are amazing, great seating and umbrellas. We loved taking the kayaks out and the little cove that it is in is great.

About the host

Hosted by Tammy Johnson

Host profile image
Our family has been blessed with summer vacations on Bass Lake since 1996. The reason is that my mother grew up on a lake and wanted to make sure her kids and grandkids knew how to swim and ski. We have and continue to build some great memories for all of us.

Why they chose this property

This cabin has been a part of our family since 2000. When my mom and dad saw this cabin they fell in love with the view and purchased it. We continue to enjoy the quietness and view of the lake and mountains that it gives us. We have worked hard to improve the outside area to make it just the way we want it. It's decorated with Bears throughout the property as well as a hand carved totem polo with an eagle and bear on it. As part of our family tradition we go to the Fork's for lunch. They are known for having the best hamburgers in the area. Then at night we take a slow boat ride over to Miller's and have ice cream. We love the location right off Road 274.

What makes this property unique

Whether we have just family members or friends over, it's perfect if you want to relax and enjoy the quietness and the breath taking views. Or if you want to have a fun time in the water in the summer or enjoying the snow during the winter. The cabin deck has 3 tables and lots of extra chairs. Around the side of the house is a deck leading to the BBQ. There is a path walking down to the water that's lighted for those night rides and walks. The large deck down by the water gets morning sun and afternoon shade. It's perfect in the hot summers and cold winters. Our private dock is located in the Lakeshore Beach Club cove and there's a swim dock you can swim too. Our dock can tie up two boats and has two jet ski ramps to rest on.
