About The Basshaus
The Basshaus owned by Richard Daniel "Dick" Bass (December 21, 1929 - July 26, 2015) was an American businessman, rancher and mountaineer. During the 1960s, Bass was the first to invest $10,000 in the development of the ski resort in Vail, Colorado. He was the owner of Snowbird Ski Resort in Utah and the first man to climb the "Seven Summits", the tallest mountain on each continent.

Although, from 1974 until 1981, the President Gerald Ford and his wife Betty made annual winter and summer trips to Vail and the Bass family relocated to the Fords' condo whenever their stays overlapped. The presidential entourage of Secret Service agents (hand-picked for their skiing ability) and advisers would bunk in the brightly colored guest rooms, while President Ford and his wife would stay in the master suite, where an adjoining office provided space for the president to keep up with work during his time off the slopes. The home proved to be spacious enough to host the president's inner cabinet, with Alan Greenspan and company filling the great room to discuss the ongoing energy crisis.

The Fords, though, always warmly recalled their time at Mill Creek Circle, the sentiment captured in their last entry in the home's register, dated 8/8/81, in Ford's hand: "We love Vail, and the Basshaus makes it perfect!"
