Basswood Resort

Brittany Pelham

We did not have a good experience at all. We are not new to camping and have stayed at tons of campgrounds around the US. We are well rehearsed with normal stays. Unfortunately, we did not get to attend any of their events as they did not start at the time listed online or the sheet they gave us upon check in except the last event which started way early. We were the furthest spot away from activities and up a STEEP hill which they did not inform us of. This is not an accessible campground and there are very steep hills with loose rock. The tent sites are not close to anything and are incredibly hard to walk to from the activities or front desk as they are on the complete opposite side of the campground down hills. Myself and one of my children had trouble navigating these hills and rock. They did not explain any of this to us when we checked in even though I said I had three children and one had special needs. I also asked if it was walkable from our site. They assured me it was. My car barely could make it up the steep rock hill and slid a few times just trying to park at our site. Raccoons wrecked all of our stuff overnight even though we put food up which took forever to clean up. There were people standing in our campsite when we finally made it back to the site from other side of Basswood whom I asked to leave! Still unsure if they took anything. The campsite next to us had a crying kid all night and yelling parent. There was a car alarm that went off for ten minutes or so. And the raccoons kept us up as well. We were right next to the bathrooms (with a flood light) which had a banging door the entire time people went in and out. Other things happened as well. I told the staff at the desk about our experience and they didn’t offer any solution although they were kind and said they would forward to management. I also sent two emails to management with no response. We really wanted to enjoy the events and experience but did not. The only good thing about our trip was the fishing which was good. I would like to be refunded for our night due to the circumstances but haven’t had any response yet.

Our stay at this lodge was an absolute nightmare. From the moment we arrived, it was clear that cleanliness and maintenance were not priorities. The kitchen was filthy, with visible grime and food remnants. There were mice droppings in the downstairs bedroom and scattered throughout the cabin, and the lodge was infested with roaches. It was utterly unsanitary and disgusting. The hot tub was leaking water and had a nasty film floating on top, making it completely unusable. The fire pit, which was advertised as an amenity, didn’t even work, and basic lamps throughout the cabin were either broken or non-functional, leaving parts of the lodge poorly lit. To make matters worse, it was clear that all prior damages had been cheaply repaired, leaving the entire property in a state of disrepair. The most distressing part of our stay was that our 1-year-old daughter developed a full-body rash while we were there. We were so concerned that we had to take her to the doctor, where she required treatment. We were so disgusted and uncomfortable that we left a day early. This was, without a doubt, the worst lodging experience we’ve ever had. If you value cleanliness, safety, and basic functionality, avoid this property at all costs. It’s unacceptable that it’s even being rented out in such a terrible condition.
