Eased into the Great Escape
Our goal with this vacation was to chill out and enjoy our family time, especially with our 2.5-year-old granddaughter. The Great Escape cottage provided a comfortable base for our activities and included all of the amenities we needed. The cottage is beautiful and well-maintained. Our granddaughter located and was thrilled by the multitude of decorative items in the cottage; we were able to keep all of them safe although possibly relocated some!! As per the owner's note in advance the spiral stairs are TRICKY, especially for 70+ year olds!

Family get a way.
Great location and wonderful view of the lake. We especially enjoyed the close proximity to the swimming area. The kitchen was well stocked and made meal prep easy. Regarding the listing we were counting on the 2 double futons for the kids and it's actually a couch and loveseat. There is no sofa bed. You might want to update the listing. Also wanted to mention that the spiral steps have one step that has become unattached on the inside near the post. We enjoyed our stay.

Great location, quick access to the Lake with private dock through the association. Parking was a little tight but accommodated by areas very close to the house. Comfortable for 8 adults and 3 children. Close to all the local beaches and PM Park.

Great spot for family fun!
Had a wonderful long weekend in this house! The kids got a kick over the spiral staircase up to their room. Had everything we needed for 9 family members from age 5 to 41 to unite and the long table in the 4-season was big enough for us to join around during dinner meal times. For amenities,we really appreciated the amount of house and beach towels on hand so we didn't have to worry about packing so much.

This location provides a great view of the lake from the front decks and is about 1 block from the park and docks. The public boat ramp is about a mile from the property. The property was very clean and fit our needs well. We had a great time at Clear Lake.

Sleeping arrangements
When I booked the house I looked at the availability of beds since we had 11 people (6 adults, 5 kids). Kids are 11,9,6,6,3. When we arrived we found that there were two less beds available than advertised. I contacted the host and she said that she had changed out furniture and had not revised the website. Result was that my wife and I had to make other arrangements and could not stay at the house.
