About Jennifer
I am an original vacation rental 'owner' on Bass Lake! I have been renting out this home for 19 years as a vacation property, it is the only property that I have and it is my pride and joy! Along with my husband, we have done many renovations to the home and property over the years. It is modern but with a cottage feeling. The neighborhood is definitely the place to be! I refer to it as my own little piece of Heaven. Most of the residents in the area have been here for quite some time. It is located off of the 'beaten path' but is still close to everything! I have put a lot of thought into the rental with the intention of making your vacation as easy and enjoyable for you as possible. From linens to everything you might need in the kitchen as well as firewood and life vests are just a few of the no charge extras that I provide. It is exactly as it is advertised, no surprises! Should a problem or question arise, we reside across the street from the rental and are always a phone call away. You will never have to deal with a rental manager or agency. Previous guests have thanked me and provided me many flattering comments about The Bass Lake Lodge. Please review my "comments" from previous guests to see how truly special it really is. I hope you will be as excited to vacation at The Bass Lake Lodge as I am to live in this wonderful area!
Jennifer purchased this House in 1995
Why Jennifer chose Traverse City
Originally built by my Father and Grandfather, the home has been part of my family for many years. Over that time, it has been remodeled and reflects all the creature comforts for you to enjoy. I grew up down the street from the home, then resided in it for several years until a job transfer moved me out of town. At which time I turned it into a vacation rental. Since then, I have moved back and now live across the street from the rental. Bass Lake is a wonderful, quiet lake. (Mostly pontoon boats, fishing boats and kayakers.) The home has a great view to the east; looking at Kennard Island. The sunrises are nothing short of amazing! The Bass Lake Lodge offers many amenities that other rentals do not offer; free firewood for bonfires, boat and kayaks for use on the lake, no 'added fees' for cleaning, taxes, etc..., beautifully landscaped with lots of flowers and trees, privacy, easily accessible, paved/private parking and an owner who is very committed to making your vacation the best one ever!
What makes this House unique
The Bass Lake Lodge is in a quiet, friendly neighborhood that is conveniently located to Traverse City, Interlochen and many other area attractions. It is set on a 343 acre, all sports lake which offers great fishing, beautiful views and lots of wildlife. The rental is filled with lots of extra amenities that will make your vacation that much better! The rental has a fantastic view of the sunrise as well. And, I live nearby in case you need anything special.

Love this place
Very cozy and clean. Close to the city but just far enough away to make you feel as if you are secluded. We would definitely lately recommend The Bass Lake Lodge.
Very clean and wonderful host
The place was incredibly clean and we'll equipped with lots of towels and utensils in the kitchen. Jennifer was great too and checked to make sure our stay was great.
Fall Wine Tasting
Had a great weekend stay. We visited visited the area to enjoy fall color and do some wine tasting. This is our third stay at Bass Lake Lodge. We love it! It is so well furnished and clean. Jennifer has thought of a lot of little touches to make this a warm and inviting place for guests!! Loved the fireplace!!
A perfect spot
Everything, and I mean everything about this place is top-notch. The location, size, cleanliness, amenities, and hostess are all exceptional.
My wife and I stayed two nights during a swing through the Traverse City area and enjoyed the property immensely. This would be perfect for a small family.
Bass Lake Lodge
Good location, great weather. We had a good time.
