Wraparound Deck: Big Bass Lake Home in Gouldsboro

Beautiful place in a peaceful setting. Rooms were spacious and comfortable and the kitchen table was large enough for our entire family. Loved mornings on the deck, watching the deer, and evenings by the fire pit where the deer came for another visit! The lake was a favorite for the whole family. We would love to return.

the location was nice. the house was a little run down. needed attention. light bulbs not working. bike available in poor condition. lake was beautiful. probably will not go back to that rental.

We had an amazing time during our Memorial Day weekend stay in Big Bass Lake! The property was spotless, well-stocked, and incredibly cozy. The location was peaceful, yet conveniently close to outdoor attractions, shopping and charming local spots. It was the perfect blend of relaxation and adventure. The hosts were responsive and made everything seamless. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a refreshing escape—we’ll definitely be back!

To start, I will state that the trip was not all let down. The location is nice, there are community amenities and the property in discussion was spacious. Now for the reason of the review. On the first morning of our stay after arriving the night prior, we brewed a pot of coffee in the provided coffee maker. Said coffee maker is a dual style with the traditional brew pot, and the individual K cup maker. After finishing two pots, my husband wanted one more and decided to use the K cup individual side rather than make a whole other pot. It was to our surprise, and major concern, that we discovered maggots in the water holding container. We immediately removed the appliance from the house and placed it on the deck outside. The first attempt to contact the property owner was then made, with no response. Given that this was so early into our stay, we opted to purchase a new coffee maker, which still sits in the house today. The windows are nailed shut, the soap dispenser is apparently just filled with water rather than replaced or refilled and the bedding is stained and dated. We have photo and video documentation of these concerns. Further attempts were made to contact the property owner via the app and text messages, with again no response. We will not be returning, and anticipate seeking a refund

We had a great time with the family at this beautiful lake retreat that provided everything that we needed! If you're looking for a place to recharge your battery and enjoy some fun AND quiet time, the Solomon Manor checks all the boxes. The large open kitchen and table provided the ideal space for the family to interact and the first floor family :game den was also a big hit! - Jim & Donna

The space is nice and cozy. My family and I had a great time. However, there were some concerns: 1. The vacuum didn’t work and the rug was filthy 2. The thermostat in the main room didn’t seem to work- we turned the heat all the way down and it was still 80 degrees in the main room 3. The couches are mid century modern style and the legs are about to snap. They need to be replaced It was still a very pleasant stay and the community is incredibly nice. We look forward to being back!

We had a great stay! The property was nice, nothing fancy but everything we needed plus some. This was one of the better equipped kitchens in a rental property we have used. There is the feeling this house was a DIY spruce up, but with the intention of making everyone feel comfortable and welcome and it worked! The kids loved the space inside and out and the arcade games. They have a fantastic charcoal grill and the porch space is wonderful! It rained our entire week and we still enjoyed the amount of outdoor space here. There was a family of deer we saw daily. There is only AC in the two upstairs bedrooms. We used the two down stairs bedrooms and were comfortable. Ground floor windows don't open to create a cross breeze through the bedrooms but it wasn't an issue for us and there were many fans provided for us to use. My only complaint was that the Lake and the Pool are not included with the cost of the stay and I don't think that was listed anywhere in the listing. The $50 HOA fee does not cover use of the amenities. Amenity wrist bands are $8-$10 a day or $30 a week/ per person. We were asked for wrist bands on the beach, at the playground and for the pool. We paid for these

We had a great time. The place was clean and ready. The owners were very responsive to all inquiries. They even came and pumped up the bike tires for us. We will definitely be back!!

First, the check in process was a pain. The contact person didnt reach out to us until we were in the gate. Obviously, we waited in the parking lot until the rental papers were submitted to the security. After long hours of drive, we still have to wait for another half an hour which could have been avoided if there’s communication between them, but there wasnt. Second, no aircon in 2 other rooms. It was like oven hot during our stay. There’s safety issues with the wall drillings, it fell off. Cushions were wet, we didnt hang out outside as theres no place to sit. Property daily pass to be purchased daily each even if you are not using the amenities as long as you will be there you still have to pay for pass. They didnt mentioned this to us. We thoughts its included in the rent already. Heater not working upstairs. Flush not working properly. Towels were smelly. Bikes rusty. Kayak no car racks. Blankets dusty. Bed uncomfortable. Cornhole no sandbags. I feel like I deserve a refund from this stay. We almost check out early but we have no where to go. So disappointed with this stay.

We are rented 2 time... We absolutely love the house. Is clean, cozy.
