The Downtowner

KateRating, 5 stars9 months ago

The Downtowner house was perfect for a weekend at the lake! The location is wonderful- so easy to walk to the beach and downtown. The house was clean and had lots of amenities. The hosts were quick to communicate with and gave clear instructions. My kids appreciated the books and toys. The neighbor lady next door was very friendly too- she greeted us minutes after we arrived! One thing to note is there are a lot of stairs and no way to block them so it could be a little risky for small kids. Overall, we would definitely recommend this house and would stay here again.

Clear Lake Escape

MorganRating, 5 stars5 days ago

We had such a wonderful stay at Kelsey’s place! The house was exactly as described—and somehow even better in person. It was the perfect spot for celebrating our Bride-to-Be, and the entire bridal party couldn’t stop raving about how adorable and well-decorated the home was. The location was great, and everything felt warm, welcoming, and thoughtfully prepared. Kelsey and Chris were both incredibly friendly and made us feel right at home. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience—highly recommend!

Hillview House

MichelleRating, 5 stars5 days ago

Our family of eight was in town for our son’s wedding June 5-8 2025. We absolutely loved the vintage vibe of the place! From the furniture to the record player there were so many details that added to the fun. The linens and towels were very good quality and all of the beds were on the firm side. There were plenty of extra pillows, blankets, towels, fans and many other amenities. Heidi made sure that everything I needed to assist with making rehearsal dinner was available. The kitchen was WELL EQUIPPED and we used a lot of the supplies and every inch of sprawling counter space! The lower level family room was great for watching TV with the family and the grandkids enjoyed all the games that were available. We cooked out on the gas grill and spent time on the patio during our visit. On our last night there we relaxed around the fire pit before packing. I would definitely stay here again and would 10 out of 10 recommend!

Charming & Spacious South Shore Retreat

KateRating, 5 stars11 months ago

My family and I really loved the place. I have never stayed at a rental that provided so many amenities. They thought of everything! We fit 9 people comfortably. Walking distance to ice cream isn’t the worst thing either.

Rustic 8 Bed+Arcade+Near Lake+Firepit+Poker table

ScottRating, 5 stars5 days ago

We had seven of us staying here for a WWII Warbird Trainer flying clinic for 3 nights. We did not spend a lot of time at the home due to long training days, but was a great place to relax together before getting a good night’s sleep for the next day’s activities. The home has lots of space and bedrooms for sleeping/privacy, plus enough bathrooms for showering etc. Stephanie is a most gracious host and went the extra mile to make sure the home was all set for our stay. We would definitely like to use this home again for the next flying clinic.
