About this property

Saturday - Saturday rental during peak season (6/1/2024 - 8/22/2024)
This cabin was completely remodeled in 2008 to create a four-star hotel quality feel, tucked in the north woods on Bass Lake near Traverse City. The beds and linens are extra comfortable and cozy. The cabin is part of a quaint resort on 5+ acres with 700+ ft of lakefront. There is a dock, rowboat, fire pit with seating and 2 lounge chairs for enjoying the view. Bass Lake is an all sports lake with some great sand bars for swimming and wading with the little ones. Come and relax in the "Michigan" cabin! There are other cabins available for rent on the property if you have a larger group.

Our favorite activities are fishing from the dock or row boats (available for rent), swimming, water skiing, tubing, and going to Boones Long Lake Inn 'Big Deck' for live music, cocktails and great food which is less than 2 miles away. Famous Moomer's Ice Cream is just down the road near long lake for dessert. Our home golf course is 'The Crown', located about 2 miles from the cabin. Of course, in the Traverse area, there are no shortage of things to do or places to see.

Fall Color weekend

This little cabin on the lake was the perfect getaway to check out Michigan's Fall colors. It was a bit rainy, so we didn't get to enjoy the firepit, but we loved the view of the lake and the coziness of the cabin. The cabin's central location was an easy drive from M22 and M119. It has most everything you need for a weekend away. There is just a toaster oven and cooktop, not a full stove, so keep that in mind if you're planning on eating in most of your stay. And if you visit in the cooler season, don't bring a ton of electronics or you'll flip the breakers when you plug in the heaters.

Nice quiet get away

The cabin is situated with 3 other cabins on the property but there’s plenty of space between them for privacy and quiet. You have your own small dock, little beach with chairs, hammock, fire pit, and a gazebo. All with access to a nice sized quiet lake that you can launch kayaks from if you bring your own. The cabin while not hugely spacious is a good size for a couple and 1 or 2 kids. The pictures don’t do the place Justice, it exceeded our expectations. The location is perfect too. 10-15 min to downtown TC and 30-40 min to the dunes but you’re in the middle of the country where it’s quiet. You can’t go wrong staying here!

Relaxing dog friendly get away

Highly recommend for a relaxing nature-filled stay. It was perfect for a stay with an active dog who loved the lake. Access to the kayaks and paddle boat was also great. Really peaceful.

Peaceful cabin

The cabin was perfect for our peaceful getaway. It was clean, nicely decorated and had everything we needed. The cabin was situated on a wooded lot on a quiet lake. We had our own private beach and pier. My husband loved fishing off the pier in the mornings and we kayaked on the lake in the afternoon. We were just a short drive from Traverse City and area. It was the perfect place for us. Thanks to our hosts Mike and Kathy. They were very helpful.

About the host

Hosted by Kathy

My name is Mike Olson. I grew up in Traverse City and now live in Illinios. I enjoy spending time at our cabin with my wife and two kids, ages 21 and 23 I am an information technology professional that travels quite a bit. So far, I've been able to commute out of the Cherry Capital Airport during the summer and spend a lot of time at the lake.

Why they chose this property

My wife spent her summers growing up on Bass Lake with her family. Now, several family members own property on the lake including the group that bought these quaint cabins with us. We love being so close to town, and yet looking out on such a serene setting. The kids really enjoy seeing all the wildlife including turkeys, deer, loons, owls, foxes, and all the other Northern Michigan wildlife. The sandbars are a great place to swim and wade around with the little ones. We enjoy catching up with friends there while floating in the lake or tossing around a football. We hope you will enjoy it as much as we do!

What makes this property unique

I enjoy fishing for bass or just taking the kids out to fish for bluegills. The evening boat rides around the lake are great, and we waterski every chance we get. Once a week or so we head over to Boones and have dinner on the big deck while enjoying a local singer play some tunes. We also frequent Oaky's and Bradley's for good food and entertainment. They are close to the cabin.
