Summary

AI generated

Little Bass Lake Campsites offers a lovely, secluded environment with well-spaced sites and a beautiful trail leading to the lake. Campers appreciate the quiet atmosphere and the opportunity for fishing, although some sites are closer together than ideal. Essential amenities like a clean toilet and firewood are available, but visitors should prepare for potential mosquito activity and bring their own water or filtration system.

Always a great spot. The campsite numbers and the map of little bass lake don’t match up. Sites are different numbers when you get there. Also the hand pump well is gone

Quiet, peaceful stay. We had a little problem finding the final cutoff for the sites. Also, I had some problems finding a level spot for my van in site 2. I think site 3 or 4 would have been better for me. The gavel road was well maintained.

Policies & Rules

Arrival & departure

  • Guests must occupy their campsite on the first night of their stay.
  • Guests must not leave their campsite unattended for over 24 hours.

Cancellation policy

  • Reservation fees are non-refundable. For campsites, cabins, lookouts, yurts, group sites, and similar stays, we charge a reservation service fee of $8.
  • Standard cancellations usually have a $10 cancellation fee. Customers can generally cancel before the check-in date online.
  • Late cancellation rules differ by stay type.
    • Individual campsites: cancelling after 12:00am local time the day before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
    • Cabins, lookouts, and yurts: cancelling less than 14 days before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
    • One-night reservations: a late cancellation usually forfeits the full amount paid, up to the total original reservation cost.
  • Modifications are allowed before the cut-off window, but fees depend on the change. Changing to dates completely outside the original reservation dates may trigger a $10 change fee. Extending or shortening a stay that still includes original dates usually has no change fee, though refunds may depend on timing and facility rules. Switching to the same type of campsite for the same dates usually has no change fee, but price differences are charged or refunded.
  • Early departures may or may not be refunded. At certain facilities, partial refunds may be possible if staff can mark the site available for other visitors. No refund is given for a night if the early departure is requested after that day's check-out time.
  • Security deposits are separate. Security deposits may be refunded to the original payment method if the facility is left in acceptable condition, as determined by the property.

Safety & rules

  • Guests must pack out all trash and personal items.

Site capacity
