Condo with Private Balcony and Harborage View!

DavidRating, 5 stars2 months ago

Great stay, beautiful place. Nice to have pool/hot tub area. We went in what I would say was the 'off season' so not a lot of busy at the lake. Clear Lake downtown area had some good bars/restaurants.

A screened porch features two wicker chairs with decorative cushions, positioned around a small table. A decorative lantern sits nearby. The space is anchored by a striped rug, with large windows offering views of the green surroundings and letting in natural light.
