Very nice home (clean) well equipped and good location. Host communication was excellent. Lake has abundant eagles (didn’t see a moose ) and good fishing, however not the best for swimming (Weedy/Shallow). Quite area for the most part. Many extras included i.e. s’mores kit, soaps/shampoo etc.., all appliances were newer.

The pictures don't do this justice! This gem is absolutely the best! The best views of the lake! We met neighbors who were so nice, they took us out on a pontoon ride and showed us Bass lake! We can't wait to return!

Family Vacation on East Bass Lake.

Beautiful and peaceful place to spend a long weekend. Very responsive hosts that had the house PERFECT for us. The loft bedroom is to die for! The hot tub was a perfect way to end each night. Our family had a great time at The Cedar Retreat. We would come back again.

The house was perfect, just as described. The view was amazing, and the lake was literally steps from the front door. The kayaks and hot tub were a big hit and being able to fish from the docks provided something to do for everyone in our group. The host was very responsive and great to work with. The perfect relaxing week for our families:)

We chose this location for our honeymoon as we thought it would be a more private location. The cabin was lovely, very clean, and welcoming. The location was beautifully located right on the water. However, if you are looking for seclusion this is not the cabin. We were hugely disappointed to be right in the middle of so many other houses in what seemed to be a subdivision type setting around the lake. If you are looking a family getaway with lake access in a beautiful cabin, this is perfect.

Beautiful House and Property

In a nicely secluded neighborhood on the Lake. Very Clean, big deck on the house, updated interior. The lake view is the best. Right on the lake with big windows to see everything. Wonderful to wake up to. Heat was perfect for our stay in November. Will definitely stay here again if we are ever in Gwinn.

Beautiful Stay

We had a great stay at this cottage on the lake! Caught several fish throughout the stay - pike, a few big bass and sunfish. View from living room was incredible. The hot tub was great. The lake was nice - not a great swimming lake but you can definitely wade in a ways - and our young boys didn’t mind swimming in it! Would definitely return.

Cedar Retreat

A beautiful lake front house in the middle of a peninsula. We loved the decor of the house. The house had lots of windows with lake views. A veranda allows you to sun yourself if weather permits or sit under the covered section to listen to the rain. Property manager, Sadie, was very friendly and responsive.

Special location/home. Eagles!! Fishing!!

This home is very special. Fantastic location tucked away in Bass Lake which is known for the best fishing in the area. Grandson caught a couple large mouth bass. He spent hours every single day dock fishing. Family enjoyed the comfort of this home and beautiful view of the lake. The furniture inside and out was comfortable. This is the place to be to unwind from your daily chaos. Hope to return.
