About this property

A Lakeside Delight w/PRIVATE Beach & Dogs Welcome

Awesome vacation spot in Traverse City on Bass Lake (between Long Lake and Silver Lake). Beautifully furnished home right on the water - the lake is just 20 feet of deck away! Every room has a gorgeous lake view. No steps to climb for the older or disabled members of your family.
Lakeside has 3 full lake lots (over 150 feet of private sandy beach) with sparkling clear water. 350 acre Bass Lake is an all sports lake - you can bring your own boat or borrow our beautiful Bennington pontoon at a low additional cost (1/3 what is charged in town).
This super clean 1750 square foot home has 3 bedrooms (2 have queens and our huge one has a queen plus 2 twins) and 2 full baths. This is a modern home with central air, a fully equipped kitchen including dishwasher, a full laundry room and beautiful porcelain woodgrain and hardwood floors (no carpets). An Absopure water cooler provides delicious spring water that we provide - no need to drag cases of bottled water on your vacation. Grocery stores are just minutes away - one even delivers!
Lakeside has high speed wireless internet and cable, large smart TV's, a full bookcase and a special children's DVD library kids can view from bed. A new Generac was recently installed. Short Term Rental License # STR-002360 Long Lake Township.
If you have a family member that can't 'do steps', this is truly a vacation paradise for them. They can be totally on their own - from the kitchen to the bedroom to the bathroom to the outside deck chairs to the beach and the water - no climbing involved!
Your dogs, if you bring them, will have an incredible vacation - no crazy extra charges for those special family members. If you want to bring dogs, mention it in your booking email so we can send info about our required pet agreement (just common sense items).
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.
