Unfortunately we did not have a chance to use the bikes, though we would have liked to. Having the grill and the firepit were wonderful and convenient. It did rain during our trip, but we were able to head out for some shopping in Howell and Brighton and be back when the sun came out. "

Looking for a secluded Up North getaway without the drive? A private lakefront retreat with beautiful sunsets? A nice sandy/stone beach perfect for children? Look no further! Bass Lake Manor provides all of this and more. Located next to Strawberry Lake and on Bass Lake, this home has plenty of amenities in a relaxing environment. Bass Lake is a motorized lake, but only allows pontoons due to its beautiful sandbars. We recommend water shoes while exploring sandbars (fresh water clam shells are plentiful in this healthy lake). Don't let the shallows fool you however, it is also 70ft deep and offers amazing fishing/swimming! Bring your paddle boards and kayaks, because this lake is a real treat to explore. There is another lake connected through a wooded river to discover! Also, the Huron River Chain of Lakes has an access point 4 miles away. If you are looking for a hiking or mountain biking adventure, there are two state parks located nearby that offer miles of beautiful trails. Zukey Lake's Decktop Tavern is a mile away, and there is plenty of incredible dining options in Brighton (20 minutes north) and Ann Arbor (30 minutes south). If cooking at home is more your style, there is a fully loaded kitchen at your disposal as well as a blackstone propane grill. The patio features patio furniture and a bonfire pit. Bass Lake Manor sleeps up to 9 comfortably, and the main floor is a completely open space for spending time with your family. Don't miss your chance to explore the woods and water in beautiful Lakeland Michigan, we look forward to hosting you!

- "We didn’t want to leave. The property owner is super nice and met us upon arrival. He is very responsive and communicative. We rented the pontoon boat for the weekend and are so happy we did. We hosted a family dinner and fully utilized the space, the kitchen, the outdoor grill and fire pits. It was absolute perfection. We have already discussed wanting to go back. We loved it!" - "This getaway was perfect for what we were looking for. It was very quiet & peaceful. The water was like glass most of our stay - extremely clear and calm - allowing us to enjoy the kayaks and pontoon which is like new. We also appreciated the proximity to so many trails, restaurants, & grocery stores. The host was very responsive and met us briefly upon arrival to show us around. The home was beautiful and very comfortable as well. We would definitely stay again!"

- "Wonderful owners, great space for our reunion. Thank you for a memorable time! We all adored it." - "From our communication with the host (Renee) prior to the trip, the welcome tour, and the amazing stay…this trip was perfect for our large family! The home was better than advertised. There was plenty of space to gather all together and to each have our own space, as well. We spent more time at the house than expected because it was so nice. The house had all the amenities but we would ever need to make ourselves at home for a long weekend and more. The property was gorgeous and well cared for, too. We had a wonderful time and look forward to a return trip! Thank you!"

Would definitely recommend for a group of 4 or 5 for a fun weekend." - "It was a great place to stay to have a fun time on the lake all day.

- "Was comfortable, quiet." - "My wife and I visit Ann Arbor often, so this time we decided to stay in a neighboring area. This was our first trip to Whitmore Lake - it was a darling sleepy town that I’m sure is teaming with life during the warmer months. The cottage is on a major road so if the door and windows are open it can get a bit noisy. But with door and windows closed it was perfectly quiet. The lake is across the street, but not sure where public access would be. It was a bit frosty for our visit. The cottage was perfect for the two of us and a little dog. There’s plenty of room and it’s cozy. Love the adorable bee theme. Clean and great for a few night get away. Easy drive to Ann Arbor! Is as listed - easy check in and check out. "

This gorgeous lakeside retreat in downtown Whitmore Lake offers the best of all words: conveniently located to Brighton and Ann Arbor, easy access to the freeway, and the ultimate lake retreat.

The home has absolutely incredible views and is everything we had hoped it would be. Stacy is gracious, responsive, and accommodating. We are in Michigan for the birth of a grandchild and have extended our stay here at Stacy's. Wouldn't even have considered staying elsewhere!" - "We had a wonderful time.
