Cottage vacation rentals in Bass Lake

We had a wonderful stay with our dog and two young kids. Beautiful location, full of amenities, and very comfortable. Shawn was very responsive, helpful, and had great recommendations. Highly recommend!

Perfect in every way! Great location, cozy beds and sparkling clean. I was lucky to visit in snow season but can only imagine how beautiful it is Imi the summer.

Beautiful location. Nice, older style cabin. Very clean. Hosts were very nice and great communicators. Beach was beautiful and private. Super clear water; found a number of Petoskey stones and saw some nice rainbow trout swimming around. Would definitely visit again

The home is perfect for a family with children. Very clean, everything was great! I recommend to everyone! We will definitely come back here 🙂

We couldn’t have been happier with our stay! We appreciated the gorgeous lake and large yard. The lake view from the sun room was a highlight, and the sunsets were breathtaking. The cottage is well stocked with every amenity, and there is a thoughtful guide to the house and area. Our host was amazing and very attentive, ensuring we had an amazing stay. We feel lucky to have found such a lovely place to stay this time of year during peek fall foliage week; it was very peaceful and relaxing. We will be happy to come back again during the summer, as it was not the season for water sports. Beautiful, immaculately clean, and welcoming home!

We had a wonderful time staying in the cottage. Its spacious, cozy, and has all the amenities you would need. The beach front is beautiful and right across the street. We loved the view from the front room as well. Special thanks to Jeff for being a great host. We loved all his recommendations! The neighbors are also wonderful and friendly. We hope to be back here soon!

Memory maker is a beautiful place in Elk Rapids. Peaceful, in front of the lake, excellent location to spend time with a small group of friends/family and 30 minutes away from Traverse city. Really charming and had all amenities for a quick getaway. Even in frosty temperatures, the place looks like a safe heaven.

The house was spacious and perfect for our family needs. There are places to park in the front and further down the hill, and the convenience of entering on the lower level. The lower level bedrooms can get chilly in the winter months but easily managed with a few extra blankets. Great communication and a thoughtful welcome with fresh bakery bread and jam. The location was perfect for our needs and we all agreed that we would stay at this Airbnb in the future!

We had a great time at Salma’s cabin! Everything was accurately depicted in the photos and between the included games and the hot tub we were able to spend an entire day just at the cabin. The location is excellent, you’re able to feel secluded but still close enough to Traverse City that you can run to town to grab a cup of coffee or a bite to eat. It’s a perfect location for checking out the city or exploring the wineries. Check in was easy and Salma was available should we have needed anything!

We stayed at Kelly’s place over the week of Christmas to visit family and it was amazing. Beautiful views, which is what we initially came for. So peaceful and serene. We watched ducks and walked the beach and found stones and seashells, which my kids loved. Our family stopped by for a short while to visit and they all couldn’t stop talking about how beautiful the house was. We had a wonderful time and can’t wait to come back one day! Thanks for everything!

We had a lovely stay! The cottage was so cute and I just loved how they decorated it! We absolutely loved the hot tub and used it every day! We decided to walk down to the beach through all the snow, would love to stay in the summer when we can actually go swimming!! Ate at Peegeos twice during our stay, so close and so good, get the cheesecake! So delicious and made from scratch! We will definitely be back!

The cottage was great, clean and had everything we needed. Beautiful location right on the river. It was clear that our host has put a lot of thought and effort into ensuring that guests enjoy their stay and we did. Would not hesitate to stay again.

Linda's place was everything we could have wanted and more. It was the perfect cozy cabin, so close to our planned activities, nice and quiet/peaceful, and well stocked with anything we could need. Linda was very understanding and a great host. Thank you for a wonderful weekend!!!

We (and our dogs) had an amazing time at Nathan's beautiful home. The setting is ideal—the house is right on the water, the amenities are fantastic, and the neighborhood is beautiful and serene. The house has everything you would want. There is a sweet deck and outdoor area along with a dock and your own private beach—the next house in either direction is almost a half-a-mile away. The perimeter around the house is essentially fully-fenced, which allowed us to swim, paddle board, and hang outside with the pups without worries. Nathan is a great host: He checked in throughout our stay to make sure everything was going well. He provided clear instructions about the house and its features, as well as great local recommendations. We really can't say enough great things about our stay. It was by far the most peaceful and relaxing trip we've had and look forward to coming back soon!

We had a great time with family, 4 couples. The house was clean and very comfortable. The beds were cozy. Beautiful, private space right on the trails. Andreia was friendly. Very easy to check in and out. Highly recommend.

this place was a perfect getaway. the area of down town traverse city is amazing even when it’s cold out. lots of restaurants and wineries to go try. the cabin itself was super cute and cozy but still a modern finish. the hot tub was amazing and made the cabin whole. i absolutely would recommend this cabin to anyone who wants to travel to traverse city.

Probably the best Airbnb experience we have ever had. John and his wife were kind and quick to respond to our questions. While they live on the property, we did not see them at all during our stay. The water front makes it extremely enjoyable and the lake is quiet. They checked in with us and always made sure we had everything we needed. We will absolutely be back to this rental, hopefully for longer next time!

Wonderful stay over the weekend! Jerry was the most accommodating Airbnb host I have expirenced to date. Place was very nice and met all the needs of home. Plenty of room in the driveway for multiple snowmobile trailers. 5 star stay and I hope to be back again when in the area.

We absolutely loved our stay here! We love the location and used this as a home base to explore Sleeping Bear Dunes, Empire, Leland, Traverse City and Boyne Mountain. The house was exactly what we needed! Everything was wonderful and they had everything we could need. Any time we had a question she responded quickly. I would absolutely recommend staying here and believe we will be back!

We loved our stay at the Blue Kettle Cottage! Having so many windows made the space feel bright, airy, and wonderfully connected to the outdoors. A thoughtfully decorated home that had a sense of clean minimalism while offering us everything that we needed. From children's snowshoes and ski poles to a basket of local snacks, Deirdre thought of it all. She also gave us an amazing list of things to do in the area with small children (our favorite was making friends with Slinky the ferret at COGNiTiON). Would definitely stay here again!

This is a gem!! Loved our stay. Perfect location to wineries, restaurants, shopping, and beach! Great farm and open areas to walk our dogs. Definitely will be back!!

Great spot, exactly what we needed! It’s small and cozy, in a quiet area 10-15 minutes drive from anything you need. Smooth check in, clean spot, had whatever amenities you could think of. One thing: If you are taller than me (6’4) you may have some trouble with the bathroom. I made it work but were I an inch taller I wouldn’t have been able to fit for certain activities 😂

This place was absolutely wonderful and immediately felt like home! Itwas great to relax by the firepit, walk the path to the river, and we had a great time exploring the property. This was our second time in the area but our first time at this home. We will definitely be back!

I’ve stayed at Nikki’s place before. It was exactly what is advertised. My husband I were able to rest, relax and recharge. It was quiet, clean and the space felt spacious. Nikki was easy to communicate with and responded quickly. We are talking about when to go and stay up there again.
