This cottage is so cute, clean, very well stocked and comfortable! Sean makes it super easy with check in and check out and clear instructions and rules for the week. The cottage and property were well maintained. It really was the most relaxing vacation we have ever had. Great for all age groups. We will definitely go back for another stay!

Great week on Bass Lake!

Our stay at Bass Lake was great overall. The place is clean, well stocked with necessities and has an amazing lake view. I will mention that this lake isn’t a swimming lake as the bottom is super soft, but the fishing, kayaking and pontoon trips made up for it! A great week!

The house and property were everything promised and more! It was all we could do to pry our kids away from the private beach to go out on day trips to all of the area attractions. It would be difficult to overstate how much we enjoyed our stay. Well done, and thank you!

Wonderful Getaway

Cottage was comfortable, clean and had everything we needed. Large yard offered several seating areas including fire pit, swing by water, deck with table and patio outside of sauna. Fishing was great. Location was perfect, quiet yet close to restaurants and TC. Will definitely consider a return rental.

Beautiful lake house

We loved everything about this property. It had just about everything we could have wanted for a peaceful week on the lake. The kayaks, paddleboard, canoe, and pedal boat were great to have available. We loved the various out-door seats to relax in, and the deck was great for chilling and enjoying some family meals. The property is well-maintained and obviously cared for!

Kids loved it!

The inside isn’t anything flashy, but is clean and as pictured. We loved the beach and the kids had a blast with the paddle board and other water toys. About 8-10 feet off the beach is becomes soft bottomed so you really had to float on something, but other than that it was perfect. Good location to get to other things to do also. The hosts were incredibly nice and helpful as well, made us feel very welcome. We had a great time!

Great getaway

Our second stay at bass lake was even better than the first one which was great. There is now a pontoon available to rent which makes it very convenient. The house has everything you could possibly need. Sunsets on the lake are beautiful. And the massage chair is a real nice touch. Thanks Sean, will see you again.

Peaceful lake and great cottage

We loved our stay and will definitely look into staying here again. The host Sean provides everything needed to enjoy this peaceful piece of paradise. Our 2 year old grandson enjoyed playing on the beach and catching his first fish from the dock while mom, dad, grandma, and grandpa took turns using the kayaks, peddle boat, paddle board, or relaxing in the sun or shade with our 2 month old grandson. This is what you think of when you’re thinking “Up North” Michigan.

Family Trip to Traverse

We had an awesome stay! The property was well equipped with everything we needed both inside and out. The home was clean and well stocked. We enjoyed all the outside toys, kayaks, paddle boat, hammock, and the dock for fishing. We rented a pontoon boat for our stay and enjoyed boating around the quiet lake, fishing, and stops at the sand bar. The sunsets were beautiful! We also enjoyed the fire pits and making s’mores. We will absolutely be back hopefully next summer.
