15 Best Bass Fishing Vacations. A Complete Guide.

Spending a day on the lake is a great way to break from the norm, get some rest, enjoy relief from stress, and enjoy nature. Embarking on a trip focused on bass fishing takes respite to an entirely new level.

Most of the following top bass fishing vacation spots include the following:

• Guides or boat rentals
• Enough fishable water to support more than one day of fishing.

The following destinations are not listed in any particular order.

Whether you’re looking for an all-inclusive trip, a great fishing lodge, or for a guide trip, I’ve uncovered 15 of the best bass fishing vacations for catching fish and having fun!

1. Dream Lake Lodge

Livingston, Alabama

Dream Lake Lodge is a one-of-a-kind outdoor destination offering a variety of hunting and fishing excursions ranging from deer and turkey hunting to bass fishing in their own on-site lakes.

Lakes are filled with plenty of cover, including sunken rock piles and timber, as well as structures like ledges and ditches.    

Dream Lake provides EVERYTHING needed for the trip of a lifetime, including rods, reels, tackle, and even bass boats.

The 5 bedroom lodge is situated perfectly overlooking the lake with breathtaking views. Each bedroom is outfitted with two queen beds and a private bathroom. Dream Lake also includes a bunk room that includes 6 sets of bunk beds and two full baths. Max capacity at the lodge is 22 people.

Finally, dining is a real treat at the lodge, with home-cooked style meals served in a quaint but large dining room complete with a fireplace.

2. Lake Fork Lodge

Alba, Texas

The Lake Fork Lodge , located on the shores of world-renowned Lake Fork, has been recognized by Sports Afield Magazine as one of the top 14 Bass Fishing Lodges in the United States and has earned a spot on our Top 15 for good reason.   

If you’re looking for one of the best bass fishing vacations in Texas, the Lake Fork Lodge is a great bet. The venue includes an amazing lodge and bass guide service and boasts a world-class fishery.

Lake Fork Reservoir is almost 28,000 acres of prime bass fishing, known for lunker bass, including many over the 12 and 13-pound range.   According to the Texas Parks and Wildlife website , 

“More than 65% of the Texas Top 50 largest bass (including the current state record) and more than half of those entered in the Toyota ShareLunker Program, were caught from Lake Fork.”

The grounds include a boat ramp for launching your own boat, or visitors can commission one of the lodge’s knowledgeable guides for a great day of guided bass fishing on Lake Fork.

The 7-bedroom lodge is located on 5 acres of lush landscaping and includes a private boat ramp for guest usage.   Amenities include a lodge hot tub, billiards, grilling area, and patio. The lodge provides a satisfying breakfast to help kick start the morning before an amazing day of fishing. After a long day of great fishing, enjoy time by the fire pit, then grab a great night’s sleep while you rest easy in s ide the gated facility.

3. Bienville

White Springs, FL

This outstanding and incredibly unique fishery is a chain of lakes (thousands of acres) produced as a result of phosphate mining in Florida. Phosphate pits in Florida are well known for their abundant and healthy populations of Florida bass, but many former mining pits are private and inaccessible. Not so with Bienville. It’s accessible and very fishable.

Bienville is mega bass heaven (the largest bass out of lakes, according to the Bienville website, is a whopping 15.68 pounds). Each of the lakes on the chain is a bit different, with varying depth, structure, and cover, so anglers will have the opportunity to employ a wide variety of techniques throughout their stay.   Guides are available to help guests enjoy a day of carefree fishing and catching!

Bienville lodging is second to none and includes 5 large lodges, each with 5 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms, as well as a great room with a fireplace, tv, internet, kitchen, and lakefront porches.  

Bienville dining includes fine dining prepared and created to satisfy with a 5-course meal as well as buffets for larger groups. Breakfast, dinner, and lunch are available as part of the stay.

Taking a bass fishing vacation to Bienville in Florida is sure to impress. Bienville is a perfect spot to create lasting memories.

4. Big Cedar Lodge

Ridgedale, Missouri

Big Cedar is truly an all-inclusive bass fishing resort like none other.   It is SIGNIFICANTLY more than a simple bass fishing vacation spot. The resort community is located on Table Rock Lake and was created by the founder of Bass Pro Shops, Johnny Morris.  

This fishing-inspired resort offers much more than a place to lay your head after a day of bass fishing. Among its vast array of amenities are the following:

5. Kentucky Lake’s Big Bear Resort   

Benton, Kentucky

Rodney Hargrove’s Guide Service is well-reputed and serves guests on trips of a lifetime on Kentucky Lake which is approximately 160,000 acres of some of the best bass fishing in the country and home to many state and national level tournaments.   

6. Lake Baccarac Lodge

When you hear Mexico and bass fishing in the same sentence, you know there’s something special in store.

Lake Baccarac Lodge is an all-inclusive bass fishing experience in Mexico offering a bass fishing vacation package on a 30,000-acre lake surrounded by mountains creating a picturesque setting fit for a king and queen. The lake boasts a Central American record 19.10-pound bass.

Most packages include transportation from the local airport (10 minutes) to the lodge, guide service, food, and lodging.   Guides are veterans of the lake treating guests to an international fishing experience that will make memories that last a lifetime.

7. Trails End Fishing Resort

Lorida, Florida

9. Roland Martin Marina and Resort

Clewiston, Florida

Lake Okeechobee is arguably, one of the most famous bass fishing destinations in the world. The resort and marina in Clewiston hold an equally large status named after bass fishing legend Roland Martin.  

The resort is a perfect host for the ultimate bass fishing vacation situated on Lake Okeechobee’s shores, the United States’ second-largest lake. The lake has hosted numerous professional bass fishing tournaments, including FLW, Major League Fishing , Bassmaster events, and numerous Bass Nation circuit events. 

The Roland Martin Marina and Resort offers the following:

I’ve stayed at the resort and was VERY impressed. The condo that we stayed in was NOT your typical fishing shack. It was a luxury condo with updated furniture, plenty of room, beautiful wood floors, and a TON of space. It was a first-class experience.

Insider Tip

Short and sweet “secret” = throw THIS at Okeechobee (you can find it at Amazon). You won’t regret it.

Lake Okeechobee and the Roland Martin Marina and Resort are a match made in bass fishing heaven. One visit here, and you’ll be hooked for life!

Nestled on over 30 acres of tree-filled land, Highland Park is in bass fishing heaven with easy access to the famous St. Johns River system known for trophy catches of Florida bass.   

Highland P ark has everything you need for the ultimate bass fishing vacation.   They have 7 well-qualified bass fishing guides on staff who are U.S. Coast Guard certified and have significant experience on the river. Boats and all equipment are provided.

Highland Park is close enough to Orlando, so you can enjoy great bass fishing while having access to major attractions like Walt Disney World , Sea World, and Epcot.

Grab a Carolina Rig if you’re heading to the St. Johns River. You can find a great one here on Amazon.

12. Clear Lake Cottages and Marina

Clearlake, California

This destination is sure to impress, situated on the shores of Clear Lake in California.  

Clear Lake offers first-class accommodations for fishing enthusiasts, including updated cottages complete with modern kitchens.   According to clearlakecottagesandmarina.com

“Clear Lake Cottages & Marina is the premier resort location on the Clear Lake waterfront, as we have been rated #1 on TripAdvisor for five years in a row, and hold a 4.5/5 star rating and TripAdvisor’s certificate of excellence.”

13. Camp Mack, a Guy Harvey Lodge, Marina, and RV Resort

Lake Wales, FL

Camp Mack is a rustic setting located on the famous Kissimmee Chain of Lakes, approximately an hour from Orlando and all of the attractions that Orlando has to offer (Disney World, Sea World, and more).

I’ve spent a fair share of my time here for large bass tournaments, and the setup for fishing is perfect.   Camp Mack is one of the best bass fishing lodges in the U.S., offering great ramps and easy access to some of the best bass fishing in the state of Florida.   5 limit catches routinely hit the 20-30 pound mark, with many trophy catches coming off of the chain of lakes, which make up about 21,000 acres of prime bass fishing.

Accommodations include a lodge with special parking for trucks and boat trailers, as well as RV setups and private cabins.  

Gator Mack’s Sports Bar serves up great food, and frequently hosts live bands fit for old Florida ambiance. There’s also a small convenience-style store on site for snacks, drinks, and tackle needs.

Boat rentals (pontoon and kayak) are available, airboat rides, and professional bass guides to put you on the fish fast.   

Camp Mack also boasts plenty of other family-friendly features, including an outdoor kids’ area, pool, and bike rentals.

Mat punching with big braid is common here and almost a rite of passage. Try 65-pound braid for snatching the big ones. (Amazon)

 14. Mac’s Point Lodge and Marina (formerly Wingates Lodge)

Bainbridge, Georgia

Lake Seminole is an enormous and productive fishery split by the state line of Florida and Georgia. The lake is an outstanding place to fish on vacations as it offers a ton of diversity as a result of three rivers that merge together to empty into the main lake basin. Each segment of this great body of water fishes a bit differently than the others making it a rewarding challenge that can be fished with many different strategies.  

I’ve spent a good amount of time on Lake Seminole for bass tournaments and practice and am familiar with Mac’s Point. It’s a great setup for fishing the lake and is well situated in the middle of the lake for easy access.

Mac’s Point includes a great restaurant, ample ramp and parking space, and a convenience store for food, drink, and tackle needs that may come up during your stay. The setting is rustic, and the location is remote — perfect to escape the hectic pace of life.   

Accommodations include plenty of campsites and cabins.

Most notable is the history behind the lodge. According to Bassmaster ,

“Lunker Lodge was also the site of one of the most important meetings in the sport’s history when Wingate and Scott helped convince a former Georgia governor and the local manager of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers that Lake Seminole should be the site of B.A.S.S.’ first tournament. Visitors to Lunker Lodge can stand in the room where the meeting took place and eat one of the restaurant’s rightfully famous hamburgers.”

Grab this before heading to Seminole. It wins a ton of tourneys there n the grass. Check it out on Amazon.

15. Black’s Camp and Restaurant

Cross, South Carolina

Black’s Camp is located on the beautiful shores of the Santee Cooper Lake system, providing visiting anglers the opportunity to spend time in a full-service atmosphere with ample bass fishing and top-notch amenities, including:

• Bass fishing guides
• Boat launch facilities for those with their own boat
• Restaurant with Sunday afternoon buffet
• Fuel station on site
• Motel rooms, efficiency apartments, mobile homes, and campground
• Convenience store with food, snacks, tackle, and more.
• Fish Cleaning Service

Bass fishing on Santee Cooper is exceptional and draws anglers from across the country, including major professional bass circuit events like Fishing League Worldwide and Bassmaster Elite events.  

Whippoorwill Sportsmanʹs Lodge – Quincy, Florida 

Although it couldn’t include the Whippoorwill in our official list because it’s missing dining options and boat rentals or guide service, the Lodge has a rich history of recreational and tournament bass fishing and deserves mention.

Lake Talquin is approximately 8,800 acres and offers anglers a mix of shoreline bass fishing and offshore and ledge fishing opportunities.  

Affectionately known as “the Whip,” the Whippoorwill Sportsman’s Lodge is located about 37 minutes West of Tallahassee, Florida’s state capitol.  

I’ve been a part of fishing tournaments at the Whip and can attest to the unique country charm of the facilities run by some great people.  

Lodging is lakefront and includes convenient cabins, cottages, and RV sites. Although there is no on-site restaurant, there is a small store with various food, drink, snack options, bait, and tackle.  

It’s hard to go wrong when you embark on a vacation centered around bass fishing. Combining awesome bodies of water with incredible accommodations, food, boat rentals, and guide service, and you’ve got a winner of a trip planned.

As the old adage goes, “A bad day of fishing is better than the best day at work.”

However, a bad day of fishing will be the last thing on your mind. Visit one of our top 15 bass fishing vacation locations, and you’ll have a great stay full of amazing memories.

Jason Bradstreet

I’m Jason Bradstreet. I grew up fishing tournaments with my Dad who was a well-known Central Florida Bass Guide and tournament angler.

Tips for a Happy, Successful Camping Trip

• Reserve your site ahead of time, especially if it's a weekend, a holiday or extremely popular campground. Most prime campgrounds require at least a six-month advance reservation. Check with the campground office before you make the trip.
• Don't duplicate equipment, such as cooking utensils and lanterns . Be sure to pack the necessities, but don't load the vehicle for a weeklong excursion, when you're camping for only a couple nights.
• Dress appropriately for the season. Be aware of the forecasted temperatures and possible precipitation. If you will be camping at a higher elevation than your home, pack warmer clothing than what you have been wearing around your neck of the woods. Rain jackets are a must each camping trip, as is an extra rain tarp to throw over your tent if a leak develops. Rain can ruin a happy camping trip quicker than anything, unless you're prepared.
• Set tent on a level surface. Even if you're pitching your tent on a naturally soft material such as leaves, pine needles or thick grasses, lay down a tarp first to protect the tent floor and impede moisture. But before laying the tarp, pick up any small sticks and rocks that will damage the tent floor and create big problems for campers sleeping on the ground without a sleep pad.
• Use a sleeping pad  — or two — as a comfortable night's sleep catapults the camper into the day refreshed. Not only will a sleeping pad provide comfort, it will provide warmth from the cool ground in the spring, fall and winter. Air mattresses provide a lift off of the ground, but they also are not as warm as sleeping pads, as the air space between camper and floor allow heat to escape.
• If you use the bathroom several times at night, plan ahead before waking and stumbling around in the dark. Keep a flashlight , toilet paper and hand sanitizing gel at your sleeping bag 's side. When nature calls, you will be ready to go. Just be sure you know exactly where the bathroom is located and the obstacles along the way before the potty trip starts.
• If you are not walking into a primitive campsite, and you have ample space in the vehicle, pack a few extra snacks. A few extra things to snack on during a rain-delay at camp will keep most campers happy — especially young campers. Also throw a couple games or magazines in the packing efforts to keep campers entertained until the rain moves on.
