Fun at the lake

This home by the lake has 2 bedrooms with a queen bed and bunk bed in each room, a pull out couch, two sectional couches and two full bathrooms.

You will be only minutes to all the shopping, restaurants and fun that Clear Lake has to offer.

If you are bringing a boat, please let us know in advance.

If you are bringing a pet, they must go with you if you leave the property or left in a kennel or crate inside the home.

This home has stairs and is not handicap accessible.

Christmas Getaway
It was absolutely wonderful. I would recommend maybe a bath mat in the upstairs bathroom. It was kinda slippery in the tub. But overall it was a beautiful house and it was very cozy.

Comfort at the Lake
We needed a last-minute place to stay for a family emergency. The host was very helpful and responsive, taking some stress away. The home was actually bigger than expected and cozy to come “home” to each evening.
