Little Bass Cabin - Kayaks & Clear Water Swimming

Quaint 3 bedroom house with gorgeous views on a quiet lake with great fishing!

The 3 bedrooms have all the comforts of home with memory foam/hybrid mattresses. Master bedroom fitted with a queen bed, desk and chair. Second bedroom is the kids nook with twin/full bunk bed and toys and books to keep them busy. Third bedroom you’ll find a queen bed with vanity dresser for you to unpack and relax.

Cook your day’s catch in the kitchen! Equipped with refrigerator, oven/stove, microwave, drip coffee maker, assorted dishes, cooking utensils, and small appliances like toaster, slow cooker, and blender.

Enjoy the view outside on the deck at the dining table or lying out on the lounge chairs. Gas grill provided for use during the summer months.

Swimming couldn’t get any better in this quiet, clean lake that stays shallow near the shore. Tie up your boat to the dock or explore the water in one of the two kayaks, life jackets also provided. Relax by the fire pit and enjoy the stars or watch the fish jump.

Little Bass Lake is known for its wellspring of pan fish like sun fish, crappies, perch, bass, northerns and the occasional walleye. Public boat launch is located across from the cabin, directions with map information is in the printed welcome booklet at the cabin.

Our little slice of Minnesota lake life is just the place to make memories, unplug and reconnect.

We stayed 3 nights and had a wonderful time. The lake was beautiful and the accommodations were great! Our 9yr old enjoyed fishing. Unfortunately the weather limited the amount of time we spent on the water but when we were out there it was very enjoyable. Would absolutely stay here again!

Great memorial weekend at the little cabin!

Fun family weekend on the lake, fishing, kayaking and hanging by the fire. Very clean and comfy for a family of 5 plus a toddler. Dogs have a blast too.

Great little cabin and super convenient to Grand Rapids! Owners were quick to respond. Fishing is GREAT for young kids with lots of bites. Just not for fishermen looking for Crappies or Walleye. Lake is spectacular and clear with lots of great swimming and non-motor activities! I’d definitely recommend

Little Bass cabin was just what we were looking for our family vacation. The check in and out process was very easy. We arrived on a Sunday and stayed a week but with the view of the lake at sunrise and sunset as well as spending time on the lake and lounging on the beach area none of us were ready to go home. I can’t say enough about the hosts they were amazing to work with, even before our stay very prompt to answer and questions as well as during and after our stay. Thank you for the honor of renting your VRBO.Penny

Visiting Family for the Holidays

Spending the Holidays in Grand Rapids to see family. The cabin was a great staging spot for us to be close to family but still have our own space. Very clean, comfy, and cozy. Can't wait to take advantage of the cabin on Little Bass during the summer.

We really enjoyed our stay, beautiful location with a great dock and kayaks! Just something to keep in mind: checkout includes tasks like taking out the trash, washing dishes, stripping beds, and starting towels, which felt like a lot considering there’s a cleaning fee. It might not bother everyone, but it did take away from the relaxed vibe a bit. Also, if you plan to cook, consider bringing a nonstick pan—eggs stuck to the ones provided.

Great cabin stay

We had a great cabin stay on a nice little lake. The entry to the water and lake were great for kids playing as well as kayaking and fishing. Plenty of room to sleep our family of 6. We hope to come again.

We love the beautiful lakefront views! Sunrise over the lake is stunning. The cabin is bright and welcoming and the views can be enjoyed inside or out. We especially enjoy the dock, kayaks, fire pit and being able to bring our dog. We had a wonderful stay!

Charming lake with loon family

Love the size of the lake and a beautiful view from the house. Very comfortable house with all amenities provided. My only complaint is the busy street noise that at times, blocked out the serenity of the lake.
