About the host

Hosted by Dana Rudden

Host profile image
We recently purchased the Bass Lake Retreat. I grew up in Marquette and spent a lot of time on lakes around Gwinn. My wife is half Yooper and enjoyed summers in the UP as a kid. We now have our own family and live in lower Michigan, but spend a lot of time in the UP. We have family on Bass Lake and have fallen in love with it visiting over the last few years. When we heard this place was for sale we jumped at the opportunity to have a place of our own on this beautiful lake. We plan on making countless memories here. Hope you, your friends and family can make some memories of your own!
