This trip was absolutely amazing! The Unity Log Cabin has EVERYTHING you need. The check in process was seamless! The Owner communication was quick, timely and accurate! There are not enough good things I can say. Kitchen is completely set up for success. Bedrooms are clean, and well set up. Being on the water with 6 young kids ranging between 3 and 7 the water depth of the lake was a huge asset. I am very thankful for the opportunity to have stayed in such an amazing welcoming community!

One word Outstanding! To elaborate...If this is a place where you can create a home away from home. Too make memories for a lifetime! First time my wife and I had ever tried this other than our own house. Which is like 30 minutes away. We had kids and grandkids coming from out of state like many. We liked when it said this wasn't a party house. The reason becomes apparent as soon as you walk in the door. It's a Family House in a family neighborhood, (Perfect)! The View! The amenities! THE BEACH! Private and perfect for our little ones getting acquainted with water for first time! Its sandy! Its shallow! It's clear! Short of writing a Novel about how much we liked this place! We're booking it again for a repeat and to improve on our own family model! If you can't tell by now; we highly recommend it! The hosts are more than gracious! I GOD BLESS and we hope every family has the opportunity to experience what ours did!

This place had more than enough space for our group of 15. It was well stocked with linens and kitchen stuff. We didn’t need anything. The kids had a great time with access to the lake. Our host was very communicative.

Cozy Christmas Cabin

Stayed at this cabin with friends for two days over the Christmas holiday. The cabin and the area are beautiful. The space was comfortable, well equipped, and easy to get around. We greatly enjoyed our time. Only notes would be the wifi strength and that the cabin has a lot of open concept rooms so sound travels easily. Would stay again!

Family Time

This was our second stay here, a very beautiful cabin love the sandy beach area for the grandchildren. Plenty of everything to cook with. I wish the large upstairs bedroom would be replaced w/ a new mattress and even a queen size bed (plenty of room). Beautiful view of the lake and plenty of seating outside for my early morning coffee.

This was a great property . Loved the lake & the area . Plenty of space for large groups inside & out. The only drawback is the step in bath tubs . Walk in showers would be safer & more practical for all age groups . Very clean & supplied well .

some surprises

Enjoyed our stay. The beds were bad especially the sleeper sofas but we used air matresses. There weren't any beach towels either. There is a road between the house and beach which isn't obvious in the pictures but we found out earlier and brought things to do in the water and on the beach. The lake has a long beach area so there is no need to worry about little kids.The kitchen is well stocked and we appreciated the two coffee pots!

Great location and the lake is so pretty!

Didn't know a lake like this existed right there! It was peaceful and just what we needed for a retreat. The houses are close together but that wasn't a problem for us. Plenty of room to spread out in the house and outside and seating outside was great. The inflatable mattresses that were part of the sleeping arrangements were pretty thin, wish we had known that so that we could have brought our own. However, it was one night so not a huge problem. Plenty of kitchen items (not always a guarantee in a rental) and seating. Loved it!

We were very happy with the cabin.

The kitchen was completely stocked for Christmas baking and big family dinners. We brought our own items and didn’t need them. The house was a perfect size for us. My only complaint is that the listing is for a 5 bedroom house that sleeps 28 but you get charged $25 per person after 4 people every single day. That cost more than the nightly stay. I’ve never rented a place that does this My kids said it was their best Christmas ever!

Clean, comfortable and well stocked cabin

We take an annual lake trip with a group of 12 and so bass lake was our choice this year! The cabin is very spacious, clean and comfortable. The kitchen as well as bathrooms and supplies where completely stocked. We usually have to bring additional towels, toilet paper, paper, towels, etc. but that was not the case here everything was plentiful. Check in and check out process was simple and good communication with owner. Shower and tub were difficult to maneuver because of high steps that some could not take. All in all very nice location. Clean beach area with water access. Would definitely stay here again.

Great cozy modern cabin

This was the perfect place for a group of 5. All 5 bedrooms were comfortable. The kitchen was very nice and had great cookware/appliances. Everything is clean and functional while still charmingly cozy. The Wi-Fi is good and the couches are comfy. We would absolutely stay here again. Some advice: 1) Bring earplugs or a sound machine, especially if anyone is staying in the bedroom at the top of the stairs (it has a cutaway wall, and sound carries well). 2) The local grocery store is quite minimal and did not have some items we considered to be basic (asparagus, raspberries, logs of mozzarella cheese, balsamic vinegar), so plan ahead. 3) The stairs are a bit tricky/slippery and would be hard for someone with mobility issues.

Great sibling reunion at Unity Cabin

We are a family of 9 adult siblings and spent 4 nights at the Unity Cabin on Bass Lake. Our experience in the cabin was comfortable and well supplied and stocked with what we needed for our stay. The views and porch could not have been more spectacular on the lake and well positioned on the lake for a quiet respite from the hustle and hectic normal lives of the city. We are grateful for small things like enough plugs for electronics, enough soap and shampoo and laundry supplies. Paper products of all sorts were a bonus keeping us from having to go to the store off property. We found the cabin in great order and quite clean. Thank you for a wonderful sibling reunion. We highly recommend this property for anyone who is reading this. We are owners of 10 VRBO properties in Chicago and are extremely knowledgeable of what is takes to be an owner of a vacation property.

Great stay- reviews were helpful.

We had a great stay at Unity Cabin. The kitchen is well stocked and plenty of seating for our group of 10. We wanted to note that although VRBO lists a hot tub, there is no hot tub. This was unfortunate as it was a search criteria we were looking for when planning. The reviews are helpful to read and accurate. As noted by others, there’s not a lot of privacy in the upstairs rooms and noise travels throughout the house. We were a mixed group and it was hard to find a good place for kids going to sleep earlier. The sleeper sofas are also - predictably pretty uncomfortable and likely need to just be retired or not presented as an option. Otherwise, everything was wonderful and communication with the host was easy.
