Wonderful cottage and location!

My husband and I spent a week at this cottage and we did not want to leave! The view from the living room is amazing. Even though you share a beach with four other homes, it doesn’t take away from the experience at all. The water was clean and we were so lucky that the weather was beautiful. The kitchen was fully stocked and we really enjoyed the deck. The hostess was great with any questions we had. We will be coming back for sure!

Big Bass Lake House

The property is as described in the listing. The host responds quickly to all inquiries/questions. During our stay, the "neighborhood" was quiet. The house is very clean and the kitchen is well equipped to prepare meals. Ample linens of good quality are provided. The deck furniture allows for comfortable seating for the number of guests the house accommodates. The beach and deck umbrellas are great for shade on the sunny deck. Great view of the lake. We would recommend to others interested in a relaxing, northern Michigan vacation in a quality rental and would stay again.

Fun For the Whole Family!

What a nice summer getaway! The house was clean and nicely decorated, the beds were comfy, the kitchen was stocked, and the deck was a perfect place to relax and enjoy the sunshine! There's plenty of activities provided to keep you busy, with kayakes, a pedal boat and rafts to enjoy the beach area, we spent most of our time outside. We also brought badminton and some other outdoor activities and there was plenty of room on the property for them all. As mentioned in other reviews, there's not much for dining/shopping in the area. The closest store we found was 17 minutes away, which had great jerkey and an assortment of fresh meats. I'd suggest bringing your own food and making use of the kitchen. One other thing to note, there's a flock of geese that love the yards which is fun to watch, but bring watershoes or flip flops, cuz you'll need them! Victoria was an amazing host, very friendly and attentive, and the property manager Fran was fantastic too! Would visit again in the future!

The location of this VRBO was excellent. The private beach area was charming, and having access to the kayaks was a wonderful bonus. It’s also conveniently located—just a 35-minute drive to Ludington, which made for a great day trip. Overall, a perfect spot for a relaxing getaway!

Cozy beach cottage

We had a wonderful, relaxing time at this cute lakeside cottage. The cottage was clean and stocked with everything a person could possibly need. However, finding the fridge door stuffed with opened, partially used condiments was unacceptable to us. Everything else was great!
