We had an excellent stay at the cottage on Bass Lake! The property was very private and our two dogs had a wonderful time playing in the lake. The cottage is well equipped with everything you need and very clean. There is a lot of wildlife and the kayaks are a great way to enjoy the lake. Barb provided some great suggestions for things to do and was a pleasure to commun

Wow! We absolutely loved this cottage. It’s the perfect location, immaculately clean, beautiful lake, and quiet. There is only neighbors on one side. If you’re looking for the perfect VRBO near TC. This is it! Would definitely stay again!

We didn’t stay-no land line, no Wi-Fi, no tv, no internet due to equipment placement in tree. Considered staying but sitting outside wasn’t possible because the mosquitoes were terrible.

We enjoyed our second stay at this property as much as our first. It is the last property on a dead end road so it is extremely peaceful.

My family and I really enjoyed our trip. The cottage had everything we could possibly need; fishing gear, grills, boats, and all kinds of kitchen ware. The place was very clean and tidy! It was a little hot, but they have plenty of fans to keep you cool. We had a great time! Thank you so much.

Despite the rain, we had a wonderful weekend at this clean, secluded property so we have already planned a return trip for next summer. Watching herons feed right by the deck was truly memorable. We also enjoyed visiting the nearby alpaca farm.

This is a great lake cabin close to Traverse City and the attractions of the area. Although it wasn't easy to leave the cabin because the lake is so pleasant and the kayaks so inviting.
We have stayed in several places in the area and would stay here again for sure. We love to travel with our small pups so a dog friendly option is a must, but this would be good for anyone wanting a lake getaway, not just pet parents.
Thank you for a perfect home base for our TC trip this year!

We had minor hiccup with that the cleaning people had the date wrong. Owner was called and the cleaning people were there promptly and my cleaning fee was returned to me. They were very nice and everything was done right.

We love visiting this peaceful little place. This was our second visit and we loved using the kayaks and fishing. Wonderful and relaxing!

The property is on a quiet, peaceful lake - we loved paddling around and exploring easily with kids. Fishing was also great! The home was very well-stocked and we were able to grill and dine on the patio easily, it was fantastic. The location being close to Traverse City, Sleeping Bear Dunes, other lakes - no shortage of exploring and water fun.
One item I didn't notice in the listing - there is no A/C in the cabin. We were worried because a couple days were quite hot, but with the shady trees, the breeze off the lake at the end of the day, and plenty of fans for sleeping it was actually very comfortable.
We had a wonderful time and tons of fun!

We all enjoyed the kayaks, paddle boats, and cabin. Beautiful location close to downtown Traverse City and beaches. We took trip to Sleeping bear dunes and spent a day on a boat at Torch lake.
The place is amazing!

We really enjoyed our stay in a quiet little corner of Bass Lake. We loved that it was close to Bluebridge Event Center ( wedding) and of course on the lake (and dog friendly!). We enjoyed using the kayaks and peddle boats for fishing - my son caught many bass! The place was stocked with more than expected. Loved being next to the woods for some walks with the dog. Sunsets were great! Thank you for the hospitality!

Very private cottage at the end of a road. The cottage sits at a shallow water end of the lake. The lake it just outside the door giving lake views from living room and bedroom. We had use of 2 kayaks and 2 other boats. There are plenty of life jackets provided. The cottage is very well stocked. The place is very clean. Grocery shopping is not far away.
As the owner told us, we brought our own drinking water and ice as the water has an unusual taste. We bathed and laundered our clothes fine.

This is the perfect cottage to relax and unwind for a few days. There is swimming, fishing, and so much nature to see! The house was clean, the beds are comfortable, there are plenty of supply for cooking, cleaning and even bug spray and condiments. Barbara and Mike were great to work with us during our stay! Easy to get ahold of via both messages and phone. Thanks for having us!!

My husband and our sons enjoyed this vacation so much. The cottage was roomy and very functional. The extras (washer & dryer, paddle boat, kayaks, fishing boat, grills) were very much appreciated. We enjoyed the large deck for preparing and eating meals, visiting with our family, and just relaxing while looking out at the water. Thank you! We had a wonderful time!

The home was the perfect place for myself, 2 friends, and 2 dogs. We all enjoyed hiking the area trails and beaches of Northern Michigan. Then, it was perfect to come home to a beautiful and quiet location on Bass Lake. We hope to visit again!
