Sleep comfortably in one of the six bedrooms, 5 of which have king size beds. The sixth bedroom is a bunk room with 6 bunkbeds.

Guest Access:
*Dock/Lake Access: there is a cute little beach area, where the dock is, it's private and only the dock owners and renters may use it. In the summer they put up umbrellas and have picnic tables. In winter it's just the picnic tables. It's right across the street and up a little way (300 ft.). Feel free to take chairs and umbrellas and hangout on the dock. It's the very last dock so you can jump off and play in the water.
If you want to go the other direction there's a beach area that has a small waterfall and a beach access as well, this is public access so a lot more people will be here.
*Please do not try to open locked doors or wonder onto the neighbors property.
* Early checkin and Late check out MUST be a arranged in advance and WILL COME WITH A CHARGE. The Housekeeping company pays their staff by the hour, whether they are cleaning or waiting for guests to leave. In general they charge a fee of $25 per hour to alter the check in or check out time. Ask about mid stay cleans for an extra fee.
*Day visitors are not allowed so every person on the property at any time must be on your reservation. Absolutely no parties!

The Neighborhood:
Bass Lake is charming and has all the amenities needed, including a local market, several restaurants and quaint shops. Upon arrival at the home you will find a welcome binder with lots of information on the local area, including things to do, places to eat and nearby hikes.
Getting Around:
You will need a car to get around but take the time to walk around in the Pines Village area, you won't be disappointed! If you decided to go to Yosemite you can look into the YARTS bus to avoid tring to park you car in Yosemite.
Other Things to Note:
