You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Spaciuos, welcoming home near Stae Park beach perfect for families and groups.

We purchased this hidden gem a few years ago with multi-family getaways in mind. Situated across from the lake with 5 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, gathering spaces on each level, a patio in back and deck out front, large families and/or groups of friends can comfortably stay here. We have hosted many family reunions, including our own, since opening up this home to lake vacationers. So many memories have been made through the years. What happens at the lake, stays at the lake is our motto!
The kitchen is fully stocked for creating meals together. All linens, paper products, soaps and shampoo, hair dryers and fans are provided. Truly, all you have to do is pack a bag! Enjoy the convenience of a washer and dryer, as well as 2 smart TVs for all your streaming needs.
Each day you can walk to the popular State Park beach, take the kids to the nearby park, or check out all Clear Lake has to offer. Relax in the evening watching beautiful sunsets over the lake. The lower level is a wonderful hangout spot. It features a foosball table, game playing table, tv area, 2nd kitchen with built in bar and walk out patio with grill, fire pit,(wood provided) and flower garden. We have yard and board games, kid's bikes, stroller, wagon, large rolling cooler, beach toys and towels, so there's no need to pack all that! The main floor has 2 bedrooms with queen beds, and a bathroom with tub and shower if there is anyone in your group unable to manage a lot of stairs.
The driveway has ample space for a truck and boat trailer, and a boat ramp is 2 minutes down the road for quick and easy access.
If you are searching for a clean, cozy space that will take you back to easier, slower-paced summer days at the lake, this is it. Did I mention the quirky secret passages in the walls? You definitely need to check them out!
Billy and I love hosting guests from all over the country and take pride in providing a well cared for home for others to enjoy.
Book your Clear Lake stay with us and make some lasting memories of your own.

Grandma’s 90th Birthday Celebration!

We had the BEST time staying here! The location was perfect!! Just a few minutes walk to the beach, room for our ENTIRE family, games to play, enough space for privacy & cozy spaces for everyone to gather comfortably. The kitchen had everything you could need & with another kitchen space below we had more than enough room to prepare for our Grandmas 90th birthday celebration! Photos don’t do this home justice. It is so well kept & so clean. We will definitely be back again! … added side note: the hosts were absolutely amazing! My mom left her robe behind & Sara made sure to find it and get it mailed back to her. We are so thankful for her hospitality! Thank you so much!

In town for a family reunion. Loved the location of the house, just a short walk to the beach. Lakeview from the front porch. Clean and well stocked to make you feel at home. Used the wagon to take our granddaughter to the beach. Toys, beach items, highchair were all helpful.

Lovely home a short walk to the beach

We loved our visit to your lovely home. Upon arrival we found the house to be very clean on a quiet street just a short walk to the beach. Sara was easy to get a hold of and responded very quickly to my questions. Everything was perfect I cannot say one negative thing about this house. It was perfect for our family.

Perfect Family Setting

Suited our family children ages 7 to 18. Could walk to State Park Perfect back yard for grilling setting up fire pit for evening conversations and making s'mores. Lower level's kitchenette, exit to patio advantageous for our evening grilling and also entrance when returning from the beach. Washer and Dryer off kitchenette. Well stocked with linens, kitchen utensils. Location of bedrooms allowed privacy for adults and children and table in kitchen and also dining room excellent for varied schedules of eating. Our family is growing but hoping to rent this house next summer and also a 3/4 bedroom in same location.

An Exceptional Property for Entertaining

This home was a wonderful get-away! We had 8 people in our group with many family and friends joining us during the day. The house was more than accommodating for all of us. I could see larger families with kids enjoying this home. The "Disco Hall" would be great for kids! Also, the upstairs bedrooms were perfect for getting some naps in without the noise from crowds downstairs. The basement bar/living area with a walk out to the patio was perfect. Most of our time was spent there entertaining our guests. The kitchen had everything we needed for preparing meals, etc. The front porch/deck was perfect for morning coffee and viewing the lake. The hosts were very responsive and friendly. I would highly recommend this home for your future escapes!
