The 2 cabins were as stated on website. It was relaxing setting on the deck with my dogs looking out over the water. It was a bit chilly or we would have taken advantage of renting a pantoon on site and getting some fishing in. Will definitely stay here again with my family

Birthday Getaway

Every year my son and I go somewhere to celebrate our September birthdays. This year we opt'd for something quiet. We could not be happier with our cabin. We were actually contacted prior to our visit to see if we would like to move to a different cabin due to a large group staying next to us and we may not have gotten the quiet we were looking for. The cabin we stayed in was wonderful. It was absolutely beautiful and so clean. My granddaughter asked if we could move it home with us. I am already looking for dates to visit again. Thank you for a wonderful weekend!!

Best Staff

All the staff were fantastic. Great friendly people and hard working. While the cabin was much smaller than we thought it was very nice. I believe charging $40 per night for our two dogs was ridiculous, but the staff was amazing!

Clear Lake Resort

My wife and I ave stayed at Clear Lake Resort for the last three years in the first week of December. There are few renters at this time of the year. We come here to go to the Huron National Forest to get a Christmas Tree after a stop at the Mio Ranger station for a permit. The cabins are just what the site advertises and pictures them to be. We have stayed in two different cabins. Both were clean an well stocked for housekeeping and dining. The staff has always been friendly and helpful. There are small towns to visit and shopping at an outlet mall in West Branch is a short drive away. For us one of the advantages is that pets are allowed. Also immediately across the street with in walking distance is a real estate/convience store/ bait shop/ and breakfast shop. Around the the corner is the Clear Lake Tavern a local watering hole for dinner. We have enjoyed our visits to the Clear Lake Resort, the walks in the national forests and look forward to our return visit each December. We would recommend CLR as a get away cabin in the north woods.

Great place to get away from it all!!!

My husband and I just stayed at the Clear Lake Resort this past weekend, and couldn't have been more pleased with our decision to come here. Our cabin was very neat and clean and had all of the amenities we could have ever needed. Looking at other reviews, there was a comment about the bed needing to be replaced, and that is true. It would be a wise decision on the owners part to do so, especially for people who have back issues, however, that did not take away from the wonderful time spent at this beautiful place. We rented a pontoon boat for a couple hours after our arrival on Saturday, it was money well spent, and just what the doctor ordered. I'd like to add as well, that each individual cottage has an AMERICAN FLAG hanging on the porch, and we want to thank you Greg Schwartz for that patriotic touch. I think that we would come back here just for that reason alone, because it tells us that this family truly cares and are grateful about what they are doing and who they are doing it for. In our day to day lives, as we all know, that daily grind can get to you, and this was just what we both needed. Thank you so much Clear Lake Resort and Greg Schwartz for your hospitality and obvious hard work to keep your resort tip top.

Thank you for your review. We appreciate the guest feedback so we are able to improve the quality of our guest experiences. Unfortunately we are not able to sleep in the bed and do not get to experience of the quality of the mattress. Since this is the second comment we have received, we have moved this up on our replacement list and will have it completed next month. We hope that you keep us in mind for future stays and see you again soon.

Cabin 2, Clear Lake Resort

The lake and area was very nice. Nice deck and and restaurant nearby. The cabin bed is badly in need of an upgrade. We were staying in the area on business and wanted something other than a motel for a few days. We did not use the boats or other lake facilities.
