Owner's Profile
Owner Description
Year Purchased: 2007
My name is Karen Ann Ulmer, I am a vacation home owner in Big Bass Lake and a family law attorney in Pennsylvania and New Jersey. I enjoy the mountains and all the all the recreational activities that can be found in the mountains, including fishing, swimming in the lakes, hunting, hiking, boating, snow-tubing, ice skating, etc. My vacation home is a great place to escape and relax.
Why the Owner Chose Gouldsboro
Big Bass Lake is a gated community, providing for a safe vacation, with clean recreational facilities that include an Olympic size pool, tennis courts, basketball courts and three private lakes. Gouldsboro State Park is only a short walk behind the house with hiking trails, a large swimming lake and shaded areas for cooking by the beach.
The Unique Benefits of this Chalet
Just a short walk out the back of the house is the blue trail for hiking. There is nothing better than cooking at the beach on a charcoal grill in the shade while enjoying the sunshine without getting burnt. Fishing on Big Bass Lake for bass and trolling around in a boat on the lake are great pastime activities. In the winter, Big Bass has its own private snow tubing or going to Camelback is only a short drive away.
