About this house rental

Sunsets, Sandy Shores, Sauna, Skiing at Crystal Mountain — Bass Lake, Year-Round Fun!

Experience the perfect Northern Michigan getaway at our spacious Bass Lake home. Highlights include:

Private sandy beach on spring-fed Bass Lake: 188 ft of west-facing lakefront, incredible sunset views, sleeps 14, 25 minutes to Traverse City. Just added! Private cedar barrel sauna for after the beach, after the slopes, or after a long day at Sleeping Bear Dunes. Rain or shine there's something to do — arcade, foosball, ping pong and darts inside, and a huge private fieldstone fire pit by the lake outside.



The Space

With 6 bedrooms, 4 bathrooms, and 3 full-sized refrigerators, we are perfectly equipped for multi-generational families and large groups: one fridge in the main kitchen, a second at the bonus beverage and prep station, and a third in the garage.

Capacity: Accommodates 12 adults plus two guests aged 15 or under.

The Beach: Private sandy beach with a dock and a huge fieldstone fire pit, just for your group: s’mores under summer stars or a bonfire in the snow.

The Sauna

New cedar barrel sauna, electric, available year-round. After the beach, after the slopes, or in the snow. Our favorite winter night: sauna first, then a bonfire at the fieldstone fire pit. Adults and supervised teens only; see house rules.

Free Amenities: Use of 3 kayaks included (available April–October).

Endless Entertainment

Rain or shine, there is always something to do! Our home features:

Game Room Fun: Three arcade cabinets (Galaga/Ms. Pac-Man multi-game, Golden Tee, and Sonic the Hedgehog), a Foosball table, plus a Ping Pong table and Darts in the garage.

Family Time: A wide selection of board games and cards for cozy nights in.

Prime Location

Bass Lake is a clean, spring-fed, all-sport lake that puts you in the heart of Northern Michigan’s best attractions:

Interlochen Center for the Arts (5 miles): Ideal for concert-goers and families of performers.

Crystal Mountain (14 miles): The perfect "home base" for your winter ski trips. Ski all day, sauna all evening.

Traverse City (25 miles): Easy access to downtown shopping, dining, and festivals.

Day Trips: Short drives to Sleeping Bear Dunes and the stunning shores of Lake Michigan.

Important Details

Guest Support: I am available by phone, and our local property manager lives next door to resolve any issues within 2–24 hours.

Seasonality: Docks are winterized depending on weather.

Larger Groups: The property is shared with a charming cabin next door, which is also available for rent if you need additional space.

For guest safety outside surveillance and video recording. Never any recording inside.

We all had a good time on the property. We have zero complaints. Any minor hiccup we had was taken care of asap, the neighbors nearby were very friendly. We had such a wonderful experience we would consider visiting again.
