Top Clare Lake Hotel Reviews

Beachwalk- Great house- 7 bedrooms/hot tub/golf cart.

8/10 Good

"The house and location were amazing! We had a few issues with the hot tub, but the host was great about communicating and responding to our questions and needs. We’d definitely book again in the future."

The View from this Lakeside Cottage with Beach in Backyard, is BEAUTIFUL!

10/10 Excellent

"Our party of grandparents, parents, and young kids all had a fantastic time at this classic beach cottage. It has a charming interior, easy beach access, and a short drive to restaurants and groceries. There's a picturesque 120-yard walk along the beach path to the beach proper, with a dune in between. The beach itself is wonderful as well! A happy little discovery—there were loads of monarch butterflies flying by the beach during our mid-September stay.Looking at some of the other reviews, the house smelled like a house. The left side has two parking spaces. Check-in and check-out were minimal and straightforward. The property management staff were courteous, timely, and very helpful. Thank you for the wonderful stay!"

Family Friendly Cottage - Close to Indiana Dunes - Extended stay discounts

10/10 Excellent

"A perfect place for us- an annual get-together place 4 for sisters to hang out for a few days and catch up on our lives. The house was cute, clean, well-maintained, well-equipped and quiet!"

Charming Lake Michigan Bungalow

8/10 Good

"A clean place to crash close to the beach. Kitchen amenities could be improved with the addition of drinking glasses and stainless steel pans (the non-stick pots/pans provided were in rough shape). The outdoor shower was out of order. Plenty of towels/TP/paper towels provided. Overall, a fine place to stay, especially with kids. The screened porch and loft were a lot of fun for them."

7 Bedroom Lake Shore Dr. Beach Home - NEWLY BUILT HOME! Steps to the beach!

10/10 Excellent

Family Retreat-Beachwalk-Grill-AC-Free WiFi-Pool Table-Bikes-Grill-Golf Cart

10/10 Excellent

"We absolutely loved this house and will be back! There were many family friendly amenities such as a pack and play, baby gate, high chair, sand toys, and many other things. Everything was clean and the check in and check out process was smooth. The house itself is spacious and allowed us to gather together, and the resort is wonderful. The baby pool was closed a few days for maintenance but the splash pad and large pool were still open and able to be used."
