Cottage holiday rentals in Bass Lake

We had an amazing time at Salma’s big beautiful cottage! It’s like something out of a dream. The cottage itself is very beautifully designed with lots of wooden features & accents both within the interior and exterior. We fell in love with its beauty. It’s super spacious inside and has everything you need for a dreamy cottage weekend. The outdoor hot tub with string lights were a very cute touch! The large property is nestled within a lovely outdoor wooded area that feels far away from busy life but is actually only 15-20 minutes away from most local Traverse city places! So it makes for a great location that is best of both worlds. The cottage was very clean and it was very easy to spend the day lounging around in and then enjoy its cozy nature in the evenings. Salma was very kind and easy to communicate with! She was a wonderful host. We really loved staying here and would love to return someday. This is a true one of kind gem and I’m sure you’d make some wonderful memories here too.

Omg, I don’t have the words for how awesome this place is. First, it is exactly what you see in the pictures and more. Second, it’s not far from anything and third, it’s so peaceful. I could get lost in pure bliss there. Weather I was in the hot tub, the porch, at the table on the deck, the fire pit, the dock, or even just sitting on the beach collecting rocks. Absolute Heaven. I’ve even told the rest of my family that next time we go to Michigan, we’re going to Traverse City and we’re staying at this house. Absolutely amazing. Thank you so much. Thank you!

We stayed at this awesome cottage in northern Michigan for a golf trip with four guys, and it couldn’t have been better. The Airbnb is set on a ton of land—super peaceful and private, perfect for unwinding after long days on the course. The place was spotless, well-stocked, and everything was easy to navigate. One of the biggest highlights was the hot tub—absolutely clutch after walking 18+ holes each day. The host made everything simple with great communication and clear instructions from start to finish. It was one of those stays where everything just worked, which let us fully relax and enjoy the trip. Highly recommend this spot if you’re planning a golf getaway or just want a quiet place to chill with friends.

We really enjoyed staying at John’s cabin, I love fishing so being on the river and so close to good fishing trails was awesome. The cabin was very clean and nice and John provided everything you need which was awesome.

We had an amazing stay! The space was exactly as described - clean, stylish, and cozy. It was an ideal location, close enough to shops, restaurants, and trails, but still tucked away enough to feel private and peaceful. Would recommend!

We had a fantastic stay! The house was spotless, very comfortable, and in a perfect location—just minutes from restaurants, shops, and the lake. Stephanie and Bobby were incredibly easy to work with and had a thoughtfully organized book full of recommendations and options for just about anything you could need or want to do in the area. Highly recommend!

Cannot recommend this host and this property enough. Nathan was communicative while we were still looking at the property, and responded quickly through the rest of the process until check out. He provided great recommendations for local places to try out and we had a peaceful stay. The property was roomier than expected for the master and cozy for the spare rooms, and we especially loved the living room and outdoor furniture. So happy to have found this gem of a place and excited to come back in the future!

My family & I loved it . Everyone was content just staying at the cottage . Lol but we did check out A couple of the recommendations & they were very nice !! Great stay will definitely book again !!

I loved this Airbnb! It was a perfect size and was beautiful. Super close to town yet still felt like we had a quiet neighborhood to stay in as well. Our host was the sweetest and communicated so well with us. If I ever need to come back to lake city, I would love to stay here again!

This house was exactly what we were looking for. Directly on the lake with an area for our kids to play, a dock to enjoy and an awesome porch and outdoor firepit. The house was very clean and had all cookware and basic items we needed. Great place for fun with the family or just go relax and unwind.

My family and I had a great stay at Robert's home. It was exactly what we were looking for in a long weekend in the Leelanau/Suttons Bay wine country with hiking trails, scenic roadways, and outdoor activities that we had in store. Robert was very accommodating and the home was exactly what we were looking for in a quiet rural space to recharge. We would love to stay here again if we make it back up that way. Thank you for a great stay!

We truly enjoyed our stay. The property was stunning! We wished for better weather to enjoy the kayaks and paddle boats, but that was nothing that could’ve been controlled. We did enjoy a fire in the pit. The lake view was beautiful. Jake was very pleasant and made sure we were taken care of. Thank you!

Ben was able to accommodate my last minute stay and I’m so appreciative! I was hoping to get away from the city and enjoy watching the lake with my partner and pup. We were obsessed with the sunroom, multiple board games/puzzle available, watching movies and just catching back up. The lake is still a bit chilly which worked for me because nobody else was out and about! It was such a peaceful, calming trip and I would definitely come back.

I highly recommend staying here. The place was clean and had a lot to offer with games, blankets, kitchen ware, air conditioners and a fire place. The cottage was clean and very welcoming.

This is our second time staying at Laurie’s Airbnb and we love it. It’s the perfect place to enjoy the winter wonderland up there. Laurie is very communicative and very helpful. The place is comfy and we love that we can bring our dogs!

Great place to stay for our group of 4 while playing some of the nearby golf courses. Exactly as advertised, and the path down to the river through the woods felt like true "Up North."

Little Skip Cottage was absolutely gorgeous & cozy — just perfect for our honeymoon. We loved everything about it and will certainly be back!

For a group of 4 "mature" women, this home was perfect. We each had our own bedroom and easily shared 2 full bathrooms. The kitchen is well stocked. The house is VERY clean. The location is beautiful in a quiet neighborhood. It was easy to get to Traverse City. Be aware that there are small signs around the house to help you use electricity, heating,/cooling,,TV, WiFi, etc. Audrey was alway quickly responsive to my messages. I highly recommend this airbnb.

We were warmly greeted by Mark as we arrived. The cabin was immaculate, fully-stocked with all needed amenities, and very comfortable beds and living room and porch furniture. The lake view and surrounding area are so peaceful and picturesque. We enjoyed swimming in the lake and enjoying eating and reading on the porch. A perfect place to enjoy family and the beauty of Northern Michigan!

This villa was INCREDIBLE! You are surrounded by nature but are so close to the city. The location is perfect! the space was spotless and and fully equipped. The wifi was fast and the water pressure was great. Not to mention, there was plenty of hot water. Autumn was a fabulous host and made sure we had what we needed. I highly recommend staying here.

We had a wonderful stay in my favorite up north town. Chelsea’s place was adorable and it was easy to get everywhere we wanted to be. Loved the yard, the water, the decor…everything was perfect.

We had an amazing time! the location was beautiful and we loved the view from the deck. Everything was clean and well stocked. highly recommend.

This is an amazing property with a remarkable view over the lake. It is a very tranquil location and it is easy to feel close to nature. The cabin is very well appointed and was perfect! The host was incredibly responsive and easy to communicate with. Overall a five star property and experience. Highly recommended!

Beautiful cottage in a peaceful location but close enough to the city and to the peninsula to enjoy that as well. Shannon was a wonderful host and was responsive to our needs. The cottage was clean and comfortable, and we hope to come back and stay again for more fun along the river!
