We took our family of 8 adults and three children to Clearwater Shores and were so pleased that we are booking again for next year. From the first communication until leaving the property today, the management and caretakers were kind, easy to communicate with, and very helpful – even going the extra mile to make sure we had an infant life jacket upon arrival. The Home and Property are so well appointed, loved and care for with plenty of areas inside and out to gather for meals and family time. Cool bonuses were the painted wall outside and the game room downstairs. The breathtaking views of sunrises and green trees across the lake made the perfect peaceful getaway for great memories. We are looking forward to next year already!

We had a wonderful time with our family, even our little dog Lilly joined in the kayak and swimming. The sunsets were sensational and we had family time in the lower deck every evening. The kitchen is well appointed and we were able to cook gourmet meals and the children baked chocolate cake!!The owner was extremely gracious and even provided great coffee for us.
