We Loved our stay in Clear Lake!
My wife, oldest daughter and I really enjoyed our stay at Tifani's Clear Lake house. We loved the short walk to the center of town and the lake. The house was big enough to host a day with our extended family from Forest City while we watched the classic car parade pass by the front yard. Very clean and comfy! Thanks Tifani, we'll be back!

Great Location Near Downtown
The location of this property is excellent! We were able to walk three short blocks to downtown to a great coffee shop because we were too lazy to make it. A grocery store, a gyro diner, and other great little places are all within walking distance. The property itself included plenty of towels along with beach chairs and other amenities for enjoying the lake. This adorable two-bedroom house can easily handle a family of four. We would definitely stay here again.

Lovely house. Perfect location.
It’s the little things that make a stay wonderful. Good coffee, quality shampoo, nice bedding, and the beach chairs and wagon made the stay perfect. We could walk to the beach and the park and restaurants. I would recommend you stay here. We were just 2 people with lots of space for more. I would come back here with the kids.

Clear Lake Property
Our family loved the size of the home and how close the property was to walk to the many activities available downtown. Grab a visitors guide so you don’t miss activities like the farmers market, music in the park and the many specialty businesses and restaurants. Thank you for sharing you home with our family.

Great location
Beautifully decorated house that is close to the lake and downtown. We were able to walk to both places. The kitchen was equipped with new appliances and appeared to be newly remodeled. The stairs were a little challenging going down since I have a bad knee and they were a bit steep, however the bedrooms upstairs were very nice size and very comfortable. Again awesome decor. The bathroom was near the bedrooms on the second floor. We did use the grill which appeared new and was clean. Maybe a note could appear in the house book about instructions for the new kitchen appliances.

Cute place
This was a cute little house right off the lake. It’s a nice short walk to town and small drive to most things. There are only a couple things I would change, including additional blinds for the living room, and some bedrooms there was a little lack of privacy if you’re going to add more people in the house. Having one bathroom is not enough for six people which is the listing without more shades or blinds. They had some nice amenities at the house, which was a special touch.
