Our 40th

We honeymooned on Big Clear Lake 40 years ago and relived the dream by staying at "Dream on a Hill". The location was great, the property very well maintained and the accommodations thoroughly modern and clean! Our host Steve was prompt in answering any of our questions which were few because all we needed to know was laid out so well! A HUGE bargain for the price - 5 Stars!
