We loved our stay at this beautiful property! The home was perfect for our family of four. The large open living room and kitchen/ dining space was ideal for evenings together. We spent days at the pool and lakes in the Big Bass community and thoroughly enjoyed the beautiful views and natural surroundings. We highly recommend this property for a family getaway.

The first day we had a bear on the property and two deer. The bear finally left and he never came back. The place was very cozy and clean. The only complaint was that the Big Bass Lake beach wasn't clean (it had bird droppings all over.) This was no fault of the owner. And the outside pool wasn't open until 6/13. Other than that we had a very pleasant vacation.

Weekend Get away .

Check in was easy and precise, my daughter and a few other family members arrived before I did. That was not a problem, their names were listed and they were allowed inside. The house was very comfortable and accommodating. There was plenty to do, house was stocked with various condiments Reilly nice cookware and cutlery. I ordered food to pick up at the local Walmart which I appreciated. Walmart like many restaurants didn’t deliver to the area, so you must order and pick up. Every bed couch and chair were very comfortable and simply put cozy. Those were the pros, now the cons. My husband had to clean the grill before use the last renters left it horribly dirty. But he cleaned it before and after our use. Towels are available but not washcloths, luckily we brought our own. You must bring all of your own necessities. The bedrooms definitely need more lighting, there were only a small lamp in each bedroom to light the entire room, very poor lighting in those areas. I wasn’t notified until the last minute that there were additional fees to use the pool. $10 a day per person on weekends. I feel that for the overall cost to rent the property ,that the pool would or should be included. I’m giving this property a 4 out of 5 stars. Only because of the extra cost to use the pool. We will however be returning and will suggest this rental to others who want a cozy getaway. Still, we throughly enjoyed our stay and look forward to staying again in the near future.

Pleasant weekend stay!

We stayed here while visiting our son, who is attending a local university. Our younger children were thrilled with the toys and bikes. The house was clean and bright, and we enjoyed our time here! It is important to note that due to community association restrictions, no more than 9 people can stay in the house.

Family meeting

A very pleasant stay in the middle of everything we needed to get to. We met a family member thru Ancestry, and wanted to do some research in Scranton and Taylor. We also visited Lake Naomi, a long time retreat for our family for 3 generations. This home at Big Bass Lake had way more than we needed for 3 of us. Looks like we have more work to do and will return here at some point in the future.
