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!
We absolutely love how affordable and family friendly Basswood Resort is. They have fun activities everyday for all ages, among there many fishing ponds, swimming pool, playgrounds, dog park, nature trails and so on. We will be making yearly trips here😀
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.

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.
