    Credit Card on File and Property Damage Charges

    If you booked a lodge that requires a card on file (Leaning Tree, Eagle, Carriage), you'll only be charged if damage occurred during your stay. There's no pre-authorization hold on the credit card. This applies to public rate bookings only (not ownership groups).

    Clearwater Forest has 14 days after your stay to assess the property. Charges for incidentals include property damage, excessive cleaning, returning forgotten items, or damage from undeclared pets and guests.

    If any excessive charges are incurred, we'll send you an email with a description of the damage, and the amount you’ll be charged. We'll apply the charge to your booking and send you a receipt via email.

The fully accessible main level has a meeting area with a wood-burning fireplace, dining area for 32, full kitchen (see what is in the kitchen), and terrace overlooking Clearwater Lake.

There is a second common area, also with a fireplace, piano and refrigerator on the lowest level that walks out to a shared beach (for camp guests only).

    Guests have access to a canoe, paddle boats, four sit-on-top kayaks (life jackets are provided) and the beach. The boats are first come first serve to all camp guests.
