Wonderful Clear Lake get-away for our family!
This was the perfect house for our family of 12! Everything was setup nicely, from the check-in process to the prompt communication and all the great accommodations, the location, games, the extras, like the neat concessions popcorn machine that our grandkids loved. We had a blast!
