About Bass Lake Preserve
Bass Lake Preserve is a 606-acre preserve in Munson Township. It includes the 160-acre Bass Lake, a treasured natural resource in Geauga County for many generations, and Spring Brook Sanctuary, a State Nature Preserve protecting Ohio's last known indigenous population of brook trout. It is Geauga Park District’s intent to protect this natural area in perpetuity.

The Bass Lake community was established on the west side of the lake in the early 20th century, consisting primarily of summer cottages. In the 1950s residents began to build new and convert older cottages into year-round residences. In addition to recreation, the land was also used for farming and maple syrup production, and celery was grown in a nearby peat bog. From Bass Lake Preserve webpage
