I like our basement. This is the first house I've lived in with one. It's a little cool in the winters, but in the summers it is just about the perfect temp. That is our family room/TV room, so we can retire there in the evenings, watch a DVD, play a game, watch TV, whatever. The furniture is so comfortable!
Being a Texan, new to the land of basements that is Pennsylvania, I have to vote for our finished room in the basement. From there I can work on a sermon, puff contentedly on a pipe, sip coffee and let the world do what it will. And for the distractions of the little residents we have a train table there and a PS2. So, we all win! What other room could that be said of?

Being from the land of basements that is Pennsylvania, I still cannot believe that there are virtually no basements in Central Virginia. When we were thinking of buying, instead of renting, a basement was my top priority (even more so than a large kitchen!). I envisioned my school room to be in the basement, I desired a laundry room away from all the other rooms, so it could be messy like it deserved to be. I wanted the big, dark, basementy smell.
The house we rent now does not have a basement. Suddenly, I am perfectly fine with that. I think it is all of the land and out houses (not portapotties, but shed-type buildings) or the insulated garage (currently my husband's mancave with pingpong, darts, etc) that could easily double as a school room. Or maybe I'm just so thankful to be able to afford to rent something like this, compared to our last home: a two bedroom apartment with a crawl-space kitchen, a stoop-sized balcony and a living room/dining room/office combo.
It's no palace, but it is our castle.
Ok, I have a basement which is half-way finished. It has my tv which is used for Planet Earth and Jane Austin (go planet earth!...totally great show), two lounge chairs and some "night stands". It has another finished part which is a bedroom for guests so you guys can come visit!!!!!. The other parts are unfinished but are useful in that they hold a grocery store and a laundry mat....really I'm not at all kidding! Food for an army!
back porch (seasonal!). We have to put a screen up in black fly season, but it overlooks the lake. My dock is also a favorite "room."

Jealous.... truly I am! I want a 4 seasonal one where I can view all the seasons!

I can view all the seasons. We have glass sliders looking out over the lake. BTW, from the dock, I can see all the constellations available (no light pollution) and I can catch bass of the large variety.
