La retraite familiale "Rétro" de Cuyuna au bord du lac

Groovy, comfortable and quiet 1970's retro lake home. If you like Mid Century/70's vibes this is the cabin for you! Includes shag carpet, swag lights, yellow themed kitchen, knotty pine paneling, and rattan/wicker. If you long to experience that part of the past look no further! Being the 3rd generation owners we are so proud to keep my grandparent's original design aesthetic in mind as we continue to make upgrades and improvements. We warmly welcome you to experience our family lake home!
The space
Clearwater Lake is home to 76 private residences of which only 12 are year-round residences, the rest of the lakeshore (approx 1/4) is undeveloped and owned by a youth camp, this lends itself to being a very quiet and "private like" lake. The lake itself is great for anglers (fishing guidebook available onsite) and is approx 900 acres.

The entire home is approx 2200 sq/ft. There are 2 equal sized bedrooms on the main floor, one with a queen bed and the other with a full bed. The main floor is also home to the kitchen, dining room w/ a table to accommodate 10 guests, Living room w/ wood burning fireplace*, deck overlooking the lake and the "tree house" porch. The lower walkout level has lake views from the family room and 1 large bedroom with a queen bed. Main floor and lower levels both have 3/4 baths (toilet, shower, sink). Loft level (VRBO Does not have a loft category) has 6 twin beds. Double wrought iron spiral staircase connects all levels. There is a large lakeside deck the leads to staircase access to the lakefront. Full onsite laundry room is available. Large 3 season screened "tree house" porch that seats approx 10-12 people off kitchen and overlooks lake and forest.

Turnaround driveway with ample parking for 6-7 cars*. Our dock can accommodate a boat up to 24+ feet if needed. Forest side of home has large firepit* and our lake side has a small lakeshore firepit* with a couple chairs to enjoy the view.

*Firewood for fireplace and firepits to be supplied by guests
*In winter parking may be more limited due to plowing

The lakeshore is partially wooded with large openings for the dock and stairs leading into the water. It is slightly rocky on the lakeshore on our property, I grew up swimming barefoot with no issues but if you are sensitive to smaller rocks and occasional seaweed underfoot we recommend water shoes.
