- THE SPACE -
Our Retreat is available for year round stays. It sleeps 10 comfortably, with a large living space and a kitchen stocked with everything you'll need. We love our coffee in the morning, so we have a coffee maker & coffee grounds for your stay, some basic spices, and a few other condiments in the fridge.

Enjoy all our outdoor spaces, the front of the house has a great size yard with a patio deck with a BBQ grill. Enjoy your coffee or take in the sunset view from the dock!

The cabin is fully suited for families. We have a pack-n-play, a highchair, children's toys & board games.

You'll have access to the entire house along with the fire pit near the lake.

The rental comes with the use of 3 kayaks, a paddleboat, and a lily pad.

Clearwater Lake is the largest lake in the area, enjoy the sandy-bottom lake for playing, or rent our our 26 foot pontoon to enjoy even more of the lake! If you have your own boat, there are two boat launches on the lake.

Girls weekend
Wonderful place to stay. Beds were very comfortable. Plenty of room for our crafting/sewing. House was a bit chilly, but pack an extra sweater and warm socks and you are good to go. Will definitely be booking again for next year.

Perfect for Girls Weekend!
We had a wonderful stay! The owners were extremely quick to respond to any questions we had before our trip. They had some firewood for us as well as coffee that we really appreciated. The views from the family room and upper bedrooms were amazing. We felt safe and the area was quiet and serene. The kitchen had everything you could think of even though we didn’t need much of anything for our short stay. Entry was easy and the method they used felt really safe. It was Oct. so we didn’t get in the lake but it was clean and had a sandy bottom. Thanks for a great stay! I would definitely recommend this property!

A lovely place on a great bay of Clearwater Lake
We spent 3 nights at this lovely home on Clearwater lake. I visited with my parents and my mom’s siblings, all of whom have a long history with the lake and the area. The house accommodated the group well. The beds were very comfortable, the owners provided all that was needed, and the decks were lovely for sitting and watching the sunset. We rented the pontoon for a day and did a cruise around the lake, which brought back many memories. Kayaks were available for use as well. The owners were very communicative and responded quickly to any questions we had. Highly recommend this property!
