The room was huge and the bed was comfortable. It was a clean and convenient place to stay. The bathroom fan was noisy and the fixtures were old.

Fireplace on a patio right outside of our lakeside room. Running fountain in the background. Off season, so it is sooooo quiet! Truly enjoying our stay!

Spacious rooms and friendly staff, very attentive to our needs. Especially enjoyed the pickle ball courts and disc golf; No luck with fishing though:/ Sofa sleeper not comfortable but worked well just to put the mattress on the floor. Needs new bags for cornhole and shuffleboard stick. Pizza and wings really tasty! Shower didn’t work but we took baths and I’m sure they‘ll fix it before the next person. Nice sitting area
and charcoal grill on the patio. Lots of kids activities, but still quiet by our room

**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!

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!

There’s something for everyone! The weekend themes keep families engaged and they have activities for all ages. I love that this campground offers several options for people who don’t own a camper/tent. The cabin option is amazing. We will be back!!
