OK but wouldn’t be my first choice
The view was beautiful and the property was at the quieter end of the lake. The fire pit was a nice place to hang out around. The cute little town of Clear Lake is less than ten minutes away and has some fun stuff going on. The property itself was just ok though. The inside was way more cluttered than the photos and the kitchen could have been much cleaner. The interior window sills had dead and dried bugs on them and the basement was full of millipedes, including sleeping areas. All of the decks and outdoor spaces were covered in spider webs and dead bugs. The lake had weeds out beyond the dock and was impossible for swimming. It wasn’t very useful to be on the lake unless you had access to a boat to go out further, and the kayak referenced in the listing was gross. Overall we made the best of our time there, but it’s not really worth it unless you have your own boat. It was a high price to just look at the lake with an unusable waterfront and a house that just wasn’t great.

Beautiful View
The home has a beautiful view! Very close to other houses. Parking is limited but this was placed in the description so was aware. The lake definitely is busy, was nice to be able to park boats on the dock.
