We had a great time. Our cabin #9 was very large with 2 fireplaces! Great view of the lake from across the street and just a few steps to the beach and docks. Restaurant and party store right next door and the people were all incredibly friendly. Not far from Higgins Lake which is a must see! The water is the clearest I have ever seen. Will definitely go back.

Not a detail was missed in this adorable cabin. We had all her essentials we needed, it was super clean and ready for our arrival with the air conditioner on! We couldn’t stop talking about how perfect the location, fun environment and beautiful lake views! The management really put time into making it the perfect experience. We will definitely be back!

Nice place and very clean. Nice view of the lake. The only issue I didn't realize before booking was the extra fees. Firewood for a shared fire pit and a few other little things. Other than that a beautiful little place and I would go again.

We picked this cabin, having never been to Michigan and without knowing anything about this resort. We weren't sure what we were going to be getting into and pictures can be deceiving. The ease of getting to the resort and checking in was terrific. There isn't a ton to do in the town which is perfect, it's a real true vacation. It was so nice to have everything we needed at the cabin (that was super cute and cozy). All we had to do was head up the road to get groceries (literally 15 minutes away if that) and we spend the rest of the time sitting on the super cute deck watching the lake and kids swim and fish. It was pure relaxation and we are planning another trip back. Wish we would have rented a pontoon, but thats for sure next time! Everything was very clean and easy to access. Alex was very courteous to everyone and was always doing something to better the resort. We truly enjoyed every minute and wished we had more time to stay.

Our family had a fabulous time in cabin 5. It is a small single room cabin with a kitchen area and a small bathroom with a shower. The lake views were amazing even with the high winds and light snow showers. 10/10 would visit again, more likely without the kids as it is a small space. Great for a couple getaway!

The cabin was very nice however a little small, especially the bathrooms and kitchen area.
Owner Alex was awesome, he helped my husband get his boat out of the water. Want to come back with our adult children and see if there are any fish in the lake!!

Very cozy. Staff very nice. Came by and us and the dogs. Very much enjoyed the lake and pontoon. We even took the dogs on the pontoon. It was a little cool for me to get in the water but both dogs loved it. We will come back.

We weren’t able to actually stay at the property because of an Airline mixup. But the property manager Stacey was so wonderful and kind about our vacation falling through that it almost made it okay. She sent us other dates later in the summer and we will rebook for a longer stay. Very compassionate. I’m looking forward to our next booking. Linden

About the host

Why they chose this property
I have owned and operated Clear Lake Resort for over 20 years and have learned a thing or two along the way. You will find our cabins fully equipped and spotless, the grounds meticulously maintained, our boats in top mechanical condition. I do not like surprises when it comes to my guests... If an air conditioner fails, I have three extra ones in the garage. If a pull out couch will not close properly, I have another one ready to replace it. Our goal is for our guests to have a seamless, enjoyable experience. Give us a try, you will not be disappointed.
What makes this property unique
BOAT RENTAL ON SITE! You can WALK TO CLEAR LAKE BAR and Clear Lake Party Store. Ride ORV's from the Resort to the trails within a 1/2 mile. Fish off our 300 feet of docks.
