Lake Front| Fishing | All Sports | Bass Lake Sanctuary

Easy to get to when flying into Traverse City and we enjoyed the lovely surprise of feeling secluded among the trees with a beautiful lake view. We wished we would have known how far and steep the trail from the house was to the lake access, they were too difficult for anyone with walking instability. A couple of changes we would have liked was an hand-held spray faucet or a bucket, as it was challenging to wash one’s hair in the tub without it, add sea salt to the spice rack, and a guide to the house and local sights and restaurants. Other than those items, the kitchen was easy to cook in, WiFi was strong, the fireplace warmed the space in the morning, and the space was large enough for our retreat! A comfortable, lovely place to spend time with friends!

We had a great stay. Our two families (4 kids total) had plenty of space. The kitchen is well appointed. The house is well stocked with everything you need to kayak, canoe, and more. We enjoyed the fire pit every night. We did notice the water pressure was quite low (the house is on well water/septic as most are in this area) which made it difficult for more than one person to shower at the same time, or to simultaneously run the laundry and shower, but we were able to manage that by staggering our indoor water use.

Beautiful view, cozy house. Very cold in the rooms in the winter, besides that it was an awesome stay!

We absolutely loved the property!! Bass Lake is gorgeous and so relaxing. We took the paddle boat out fishing and caught bass and a northern. The house was clean and beautifully decorated with LOTS of space. The location was perfect! We spent a day downtown and it was a short drive. We also rented a pontoon on Lake Leelanau (a must do) and it was only a 30 minute drive! Would highly recommend this property and we hope to come back soon!!
