On Bass Lake in TC, Game room. A/C, fireplace. Dog ok.

We came for a week for a family vacation and had a great time! Our main goal was to have a place where our dog and daughter could swim and it was accomplished! The house really feels like it is it own oasis and away from neighbors. We really enjoyed the beach even with the lily pads that line the clearing. The cano and pabble board are a great touch! The house definitely is a bit funky, some stairways not to code, and I would say the beds aren't very comfortable but for a group like ours that can go with the flow we really enjoyed ourselves.

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The house was okay I wish I would’ve been told about the ants it was really disgusting. I also ask someone that had called me to check in with us for a rack to clean the yard that is full of goose poop. Never got a call back. For as much as it cost I thought it would’ve been better.

The house is pretty much as advertised. Nothing luxurious but everything you need for a house on a lake! It’s close enough to town but remote enough to “get away”. We did have some issues that were reported during our stay:The house wasn’t totally clean upon arrival. The kitchen floor had crumbs and sticky residue. There was trash under several beds and bathroom vanities. They did send a clean up crew to pick up the trash and clean the kitchen floor again. The washing machine left orange/rust colored stains on several pieces of clothing which we still can’t remove after traveling home and using multiple stain removers, etc,The ice dispenser didn’t work and you couldn’t manually get ice.The front door keypad didn’t light up/lock and started beeping constantly by the last day.We had to handwash almost every single dish we used as nothing was cleaned properly.There was visible dust/sand under pool table and other furniture.We had young kids and they enjoyed the paddle boat and the toys on the beach. Adult and child life jackets were also included (not infant).Plenty of space for 8 people!

This was an excellent location for a family vacation. Close to summer camps, Moomer’s Ice Cream, Traverse City and many lakeside activities and destinations. Some things that might be taken into consideration by housekeeping when there is a full house staying for a long duration…Although plenty of bath towels were provided, it was skimpy on washcloths, kitchen towels and silverware. It should also be known that the third bedroom is more of an add-on. Its ‘closet’ houses the water heater and/or water softener. At night, it often casts a red light and makes loud noises.The 3rd bedroom is not recommended for someone over 6 ft tall. The ceilings are very low. It also had spotty WiFi and poor or no TV reception.Nonetheless, a good time was had and fond memories were made. The house was enjoyed by all, especially those who were not so tall.

3 days of fun and relaxation.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The property was the perfect place for my family for a long weekend in September. The property has a lot of frontage on Bass Lake and has a great location that is a short drive to Traverse City.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We were very happy with the rental location and amenities. Overall, it was a great experience. The cabin we originally booked had an issue arise prior to our arrival and the booking company was able to transfer us to a different cabin within the same area. Communication throughout the process was quick and efficient. However, as someone with allergies I feel it is important to note that there was an excessive amount of dog hair on the furnishings and it was evident that the property had not been deep cleaned (dust, toilet with pee dried onto the seat, etc.) we decided to give the company the benefit of the doubt as this may have been due to the unexpected change of cabins. Would stay again.

The view from the living room is wonderful. We didn't even turn the tv on during our stay. Sitting on the deck for morning coffee was calm and quiet. Lots of wildlife to watch. The bedrooms on the lower level had trouble connecting to wifi. But overall our stay was great!

Reviewer Comments: We were very disappointed in a house that cost as much as this one. For what we recieved we could have stayed in a nice hotel for much less. The house was dirty, the yard was very weedy. The lower deck needs to be replaced, not even safe to walk on but you wouldn't walk on it because of the weeds. Touched the blinds and they fell off. Kitchen had tiles missing, when we called to discuss we were told this was the owners responsibility. The floors had dirt on them like they weren't cleaned, but we sure had to have it all ready to go by 10 am on check out day. Skip this place.

Sunrise and sunset were beautiful from the large window in the living area. Having the kayak was a nice plus for us. The property management group were simply Awesome. I called with questions several time and they were always helpful and responsive.

Overall we had a good time on our trip, but it had a rough start. Upon arrival the code we were given for the keypad did not work and we had to call the after hours line. It was then told to us they knew they keypad wasn’t working from the previous renter, we were directed to keys other locations on the property. I was called the day before to verify I had received the check in information, knowing the keypad didn’t work would have been helpful to know and would have saved a phone call later. After getting into the house we found dirty towels piled high in the laundry room, all beds unmade, and the house had not been cleaned. Another call was made to the after hours line. They did take care of it with an emergency cleaning and had people there within an hour (shoutout to the ladies that did come, they were very apologetic and focused on everything we asked). But it was a quick cleaning and trying to entertain small children who want to explore and are hungry after traveling was a challenge. It was a rough start but the lake was beautiful. Perfect for swimming, canoeing and kayaking.
