With over 230 acres, a lake, trails, the Grand River, and plenty of wildlife. Bass and Buck Adventures is the perfect place to get away. Once known as Parkman Gorge the valley was a hub for water powered industry in the early 1800's. The river and valley is home to a wide array of wildlife. Deer, turkey, eagles, hawks, owls, mink, river otters to name a few. The area also attracts many song birds including a wide variety of warblers. There is also an abundance of wild flowers. The valley is rich in Native American history. Many artifacts have been found on the property. My great grandfather talked about the last Native American to live in Parkman had a cabin on one of the bluffs along the river. In the 1820's there was a water powered sawmill and forge on the river. The boy scouts used the valley for a camp in the 1930's. My grandpa purchased this property in the 50's from Ohio Edison. Ohio Edison's plan to dam up the river for hydro power never materialized. The valley has been a favorite for outdoor enthusiasts. Camping, hiking, fishing, hunting, "jeeping". Many of the items used for the camp sites have been reclaimed. The fire rings are old tractor rims and scrap steel. The tent platform is from reclaimed deck lumber. The firewood is excess cutoffs purchased from a local sawmill.

Lake View
Beautiful nature, private, fun!
My boyfriend had previously stayed at Cozy Creek with one of our children. So he already knew that Rick's property was a great place to stay when we booked Lake View for his birthday. The property is expansive and private. We loved walking around the and going into the creek and exploring the trails a bit. Rick was very welcoming and showed us how to use the zipline over the lake. We didn't get a chance to use it this time but definitely will in future trips. He also saved us from having to call AAA when we got our van stuck, which was very much appreciated. He was quick to jump in and help and pull us out with his awesome old Jeep. Thanks for everything, Rick! We will definitely be back!
