Not only was it so close to the residence but it was NOT CLOSE at all to Bass Lake. The road to the unit was poorly lit, poorly maintained and very windy. We wanted to have easier access to Bass Lake so this property was not right for us. Paid the full booking but only stayed 1 Hour and checked out. ##### Cdog S. Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2024 From a partner site ### 6/10 Okay #### Cdog S. 10 Aug 2024 #### BAD LOCATION The property description is not clear. This unit it way too close to the main property and in a very rural, remote part of the Bass Lake area. Getting to civilization is not quick nor convenient. I checked in and then checked out and lost all of money reservation $$$. Very disappointed. Didn't stay more than an hour. ##### Cdog S. ### Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > - [Shoreline Cottages](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Fort-Bragg-Hotels-Shoreline-Cottages.h7859071.Hotel-Information) > - [Romantic Couples Cabin near Park Gate Entrance to Sequoia Nat'l Park](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Fresno-Hotels-Romantic-Couples-Cabin-Near-Park-Gate-Entrance-To-Sequoia-Natl-Park.h33495653.Hotel-Information) > - [Hill House Inn](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Mendocino-Hotels-Hill-House-Inn.h181081.Hotel-Information) > - [Baymont by Wyndham Fort Bragg](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Fort-Bragg-Hotels-Baymont-By-Wyndham-Fort-Bragg-At-Oceanview.h3100252.Hotel-Information) > - [The Inn at Mattei's Tavern, Auberge Collection](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Los-Olivos-Hotels-The-Inn-At-Matteis-Tavern.h69938507.Hotel-Information) > - [Tahoe Beach & Ski Club](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Lake-Tahoe-Hotels-Tahoe-Beach-Ski-Club.h13561.Hotel-Information) > - [DoubleTree by Hilton Buena Park](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Buena-Park-Hotels-DoubleTree-By-Hilton-Buena-Park.h12753.Hotel-Information) > - [Oxford Suites Paso Robles](https://www.expedia.co.uk/San-Luis-Obispo-Hotels-Oxford-Suites-Paso-Robles.h30434871.Hotel-Information) > - [Agua Caliente Casino Rancho Mirage](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Agua-Caliente-Resort-Casino-Spa-Rancho-Mirage.h2020169.Hotel-Information) > - [TETRA Hotel, Autograph Collection](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sunnyvale-Hotels-TETRA-Hotel.h59450839.Hotel-Information) > - [Two Bunch Palms Spa Resort - Adults Only](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Two-Bunch-Palms-Spa-Resort-Adults-Only.h1338988.Hotel-Information) > - [Carmel Valley Ranch, in The Unbound Collection by Hyatt](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Monterey-Hotels-Carmel-Valley-Ranch.h423710.Hotel-Information) > - [POSTMARC Hotel and Spa Suites](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Lake-Tahoe-Hotels-POSTMARC-Hotel-And-Spa-Suites.h42482.Hotel-Information) > - [The Buena Park Grand Hotel & Suites](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Buena-Park-Hotels-Buena-Park-Grand-Hotel-Suites.h4112.Hotel-Information) > - [Sea Mountain Inn Nude Resort and Spa - Adults Only](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Sea-Mountain-Inn-Nude-Resort-Adults-Only.h27490625.Hotel-Information) > - [Pala Casino Spa And Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Temecula-Hotels-Pala-Casino-Spa-And-Resort.h1071947.Hotel-Information) > - [Omni Rancho Las Palmas Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Omni-Rancho-Las-Palmas-Resort-Spa.h1703.Hotel-Information) > - [Hilton Vacation Club Lake Tahoe Resort South](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Lake-Tahoe-Hotels-Lake-Tahoe-Vacation-Resort-By-Diamond-Resorts.h64098.Hotel-Information) > - [La Quinta Resort & Club, Curio Collection by Hilton](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Palm-Springs-Hotels-La-Quinta-Resort-Club.h10916.Hotel-Information) > - [Multi-Family A-Frame Cabin: 9 Beds + Lake Access + AC](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Lake-Arrowhead-Hotels-Summer-A-Frame-Cabin-Lake-Access-AC.h79186206.Hotel-Information) > - [Hope Haven, Christian Setting, Sleeps 76\. 20Baths, Ideal for Groups & Churches](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Perris-Hotels-Hope-Haven.h57237475.Hotel-Information) > - [Cottage Inn By The Sea](https://www.expedia.co.uk/San-Luis-Obispo-Hotels-Cottage-Inn-By-The-Sea.h150921.Hotel-Information) > - [JW Marriott Desert Springs Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Palm-Springs-Hotels-JW-Marriott-Desert-Springs-Resort-Spa.h17123.Hotel-Information) > - [The Sandman Santa Rosa Sonoma, an Ascend Collection Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Santa-Rosa-Hotels-The-Sandman.h919721.Hotel-Information) > - [Spyglass Inn](https://www.expedia.co.uk/San-Luis-Obispo-Hotels-Spyglass-Inn.h41235.Hotel-Information) > - [Melody Ranch Motel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/San-Luis-Obispo-Hotels-Melody-Ranch-Motel.h10080334.Hotel-Information) > - [SeaCrest OceanFront Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/San-Luis-Obispo-Hotels-SeaCrest-OceanFront-Hotel.h1365352.Hotel-Information) > - [Sacred Sands](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Joshua-Tree-Hotels-Sacred-Sands.h39764924.Hotel-Information) > - [Carmel Mission Inn](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Monterey-Hotels-Carmel-Mission-Inn.h21218.Hotel-Information) ---
