I don't know if I'll go back. They didn't have a band and was looking forward to relaxing with some music. The house we stayed in didn't have light outside and if we didn't bring our own it was pitch black. Big safety hazard. Couldn't fish in the big pond because the house was rented? It's called sharing ..I couldn't wah clothes because the washers were broken. The whole Laundromat full of washers and they all didn't work? The fridge is so small if you were staying for a week you couldn't keep anything in it. They wanted you to take your trash to the dumpster but didn't give you any more trash bags. We wanted more pillows and blankets for the pull out bed. They were kinda hesitant to give us any but they brought us some. Kinda disappointed this time and I have stayed there a couple times. It was like we were bothering them. For the money they charge if I want extra blankets and pillows don't give me a hard time about it. Don't know if I'll be back or not. Usually it's pretty good. When they had bingo they had kids in charge of it and when told the lady at the desk she was surprised. Come on...they knew who doing it.

**BRING BLANKETS AND TOWELS*** Our stay was wonderful, relaxing and quiet, however we were traveling and booked off Expedia, blankets and towels is something we assumed we included. Wasn't a deal breaker, we enjoyed our cabin and the facilities, we traveled about 20 minutes to a Walmart and grabbed some. Just figured anyone looking ahead would need to know this info!

Extremely dirty. Flees in one of the rooms beds. Have attempted for months to get a call back for some sort of compensation with no return call. We stayed in the cabin suite, dirty dirty floors, rough towels, hair in shower drain, sheets had stains.

Basswood is a very family friendly resort with so many activities. The staff is attentive and friendly. The general store is perfect for those needing supplies. Their pizza shop makes delicious food. We enjoyed our stay so much, we booked for next year and are going to stay longer!

My family and I always have a wonderful time when we stay at Basswood Resort. The staff are all so helpful and kind. The staff go above and beyond to make your stay perfect. The only thing I didn't like was the cabin being covered in ants inside and on the back porch. But that won't stop us from coming back, though. I'll just make sure to bring ant spray next time!

Had an amazing time at the property. Took my family . Five of us got comfortable in the deluxe cabin. My kids loved all the scheduled activities. From gem mining to fishing, and all the activities at the pool; we were a busy family . Loved gathering around the campfire. The country store had everything you could need🔥. All the materials for smores easy to access. The kids are already asking when they can visit again but next time want to rent a golf cart for the light parade. Ty to all the staff that made our family weekend memorable.
Mom caught one.
That was her third fish of the day.
Several lakes to enjoy.
Bingo. She won standup . You will have to ask the staff.

Decent.

The cabin had damaged flooring and the floor, especially in the bathroom, was dirty. Otherwise, cleanliness was good. The shower in the cabin is tiny so easier to use the showers in the bathhouse, which is a nice bathhouse. No yard or view with the cabin which was disappointing. Cabins and RV lots are very close together so little privacy as it's densely packed. The resort did seem like a good place for families with children. Service was very friendly. Location was good for our needs.

Jacuzzi room was very substandard. Not what we were expectjng for the price. Bugs galore..dead and alive. Mushy Dorito chip from some previous guest.Torn, dirty, stained carpet. Worn bedside tables, the single chair was broke down. Plug-ins were loose (not enough for us seniors with Cpaps) and no USB ports. Deadbolt on door didn't even work. No maid service, so ask for more towels. Staff was very understanding, but nothing they could do about it.
