Peaceful Traverse City Lake Front w/ Fireplace, Sauna, & Kayaks, Pontoon Avail.

  • A hidden gem on beautiful Bass Lake minutes from downtown Traverse City. Nestled in a quiet cove on 2 lots with amazing sunset views and star lit skies for a truly peaceful experience with plenty of room to stretch out. It's stocked with more than everything you need so you can relax enjoy your stay. It is a 2 level home with 3 bedrooms, 1-3/4 baths, sauna, fireplace, 28' x 10' deck on the lakeside, and a 2-1/2 car garage. There are 3 Kayaks, a Paddle Board, Canoe, & Paddle Boat all there for you to use. Flat screen tv's & cable in every bedroom, High speed internet (1 GBPS), WiFi, and washer & dryer are all provided.

    Bass lake is an all sports lake but its not to busy which makes it great for fishing (poles onsite), kayaking, and boating (pontoon available if interested). Go fishing, swimming, or just float around. There is a beach with a firepit and a very nice dock right out from the deck. The bottom does get soft after you get out a ways in the water.

    The main level of this house features the living room and kitchen / dining area. This space has amazing lake views. Full kitchen with dishwasher offers everything you need to prepare meals. The main level also has a bedroom with a queen bed and a sauna room attached. In the sauna room there is a sauna and sitting area with a large patio right outside.

    The second floor has two bedrooms and a bathroom. The lakeside bedroom has 2 queen beds with a balcony that over looks the lake a the large deck below. the other bedroom has a queen bed also.

    For mobility challenged quests, there are ramps we can put out prior to your stay that will access the home and the large lakeside deck. With the main floor bedroom and a bathroom that is equipped with tile shower with bench. However the bathroom is not fully wheelchair accessible, it does however offer some safety features like grab bars.

    This location is only 10 minutes to the downtown area where there is plenty of shopping and dining. Go to one of the many wineries or even on one of the wine tastings. Craft beer has really blown up in the area and there are many breweries to choose from. There are air balloon rides, parasailing, and sailing cruises. Interlochen center for the arts is close by along with many other various nature trails and parks. The area has so much to offer.

Wonderful Getaway

Cottage was comfortable, clean and had everything we needed. Large yard offered several seating areas including fire pit, swing by water, deck with table and patio outside of sauna. Fishing was great. Location was perfect, quiet yet close to restaurants and TC. Will definitely consider a return rental.

Beautiful lake house

We loved everything about this property. It had just about everything we could have wanted for a peaceful week on the lake. The kayaks, paddleboard, canoe, and pedal boat were great to have available. We loved the various out-door seats to relax in, and the deck was great for chilling and enjoying some family meals. The property is well-maintained and obviously cared for!

Great getaway

Our second stay at bass lake was even better than the first one which was great. There is now a pontoon available to rent which makes it very convenient. The house has everything you could possibly need. Sunsets on the lake are beautiful. And the massage chair is a real nice touch. Thanks Sean, will see you again.

A perfect experience

We stayed at "Lake House" with small group aged 9-85. Everyone loved our stay. The house is clean, comfortable, and exceptionally well-stocked. Sean is an excellent host who communicated with us extremely well. He clearly loves the house and works hard to provide a first-rate experience for his guests. Thanks Sean! I'm pretty sure you'll see us again.

Sean was really easy to reach and answered our calls we had any problems. Will will absolutely be coming to the cottage again! We had a great time!

We had the pleasure of staying for a week at Lakeside Way in September 2025. The home was spotless, inside and out. The kitchen was fully stocked, Sean even went as far as supplying us with basic kitchen and bath needs (hand soap, dish soap, garbage bags, aluminum foil, etc.). The location of the home was fantastic! It is located at the end of a private street, off of Bass Lake, and only 15 minutes from Traverse City (the best of both worlds). The lake water is so clean that you can actually see the bottom of the lake. The host provided lots of amenities, such as a kite board, canoe, paddle board, and kayaks. We also enjoyed the in-house sauna. We are grateful that the host was kind enough to share his lovely home with us. We plan on having another family reunion next year, and we will return to Lakeside Way!

Great week on Bass Lake!

Our stay at Bass Lake was great overall. The place is clean, well stocked with necessities and has an amazing lake view. I will mention that this lake isn’t a swimming lake as the bottom is super soft, but the fishing, kayaking and pontoon trips made up for it! A great week!

The house and property were everything promised and more! It was all we could do to pry our kids away from the private beach to go out on day trips to all of the area attractions. It would be difficult to overstate how much we enjoyed our stay. Well done, and thank you!

Kids loved it!

The inside isn’t anything flashy, but is clean and as pictured. We loved the beach and the kids had a blast with the paddle board and other water toys. About 8-10 feet off the beach is becomes soft bottomed so you really had to float on something, but other than that it was perfect. Good location to get to other things to do also. The hosts were incredibly nice and helpful as well, made us feel very welcome. We had a great time!

Peaceful lake and great cottage

We loved our stay and will definitely look into staying here again. The host Sean provides everything needed to enjoy this peaceful piece of paradise. Our 2 year old grandson enjoyed playing on the beach and catching his first fish from the dock while mom, dad, grandma, and grandpa took turns using the kayaks, peddle boat, paddle board, or relaxing in the sun or shade with our 2 month old grandson. This is what you think of when you’re thinking “Up North” Michigan.
