This home was warm, welcoming and wonderful! We especially enjoyed the view and the fire pit! And the owners were so kind in making this a dog-friendly home. We enjoyed bringing our four-legged family members with us! The owners/caretaker thought of everything and were so communicative. There was a slight chance of bad weather and they went above and beyond offering extra amenities to keep us comfortable! You can’t go wrong with this location!

First off, the owner is very responsive, very helpful and communicates well. Can't say enough about the views from this house, all three floors have great views. the house was decorated for Christmas, which was greatly appreciated, and the kitchen was fully stocked for us to create our Christmas dinner. Rooms were large, beds were comfortable and there were sufficient bathrooms in the house. The house was exceptionally clean. 5 star property in every way!

The house is AMAZING! Robert was very eager to answer ANY questions we had, before arrival. The pictures of this house DO NOT do it justice! The whole property is breathtaking. It was very private. There was plenty of room for my wife, me, and my 5 kids. There was enough room where we weren’t tripping over each other. We all had our own spaces. Even though it was cold weather, we still enjoyed our time, inside the house. The kids (and I, hehe) loved the arcade games, pool table, and air hockey. It gave me a chance to teach the kiddos how to play pool. There’s SO much to do outside, as well. My girls and I fished off the dock. There’s numerous places outside to enjoy time together! All you need to bring is the food! The house had EVERYTHING and then some! We had an early Christmas dinner, one night. The dinner table was perfect for my big family. The next night, I made use of the Pellet Grill and grilled out. There’s also a VERY nice fire pit where we built a nice fire and made s’mores! I could go on and on about the property! We can not wait to come back in warmer weather to enjoy the lake more! The view from the master bedroom is AMAZING to wake up to! Robert is an amazing host! Do NOT hesitate to book Clearwater Shores!!

The eight members of my family and two of our friends stayed over Thanksgiving and had a wonderful time. House is beautiful and so is the property. The kitchen is the best equipped rental I have ever seen. The game room was great for when it was raining but we were outside much of the time. Our grandsons are avid fisherman and had a great time catching and releasing catfish, bass & other species right from the dock. They loved it and are already asking when we will come back. Owner and property manager are great at giving local info and helpful advice. Beds were comfortable and there was plenty of room for all of us. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this property to anyone looking to vacation in this area.

As we ventured for our 2023 Fall Jeep trip, we found a gem on shores of Lewis Smith Lake in Bemen, AL. The property is stunning and has every amenity you need for little piece of paradise. Beautiful scenary, immaculate condition, upgraded to the latest and greatest interior and exterior designs. Super clean and super fun! Very close to Stoney Lonesome Offroad park. However, what made this destination special were the owners, the Ekman's and the property manage Monique. The nicest most accommodating hosts we have ever worked with in the 18 years we have been booking through VRBO.

Clearwater Shores is a beautiful home and property that provided our family and friends a place to make lifelong memories. The house is beautifully furnished and made everyone feel welcome and comfortable. There were plenty of games for the kids to play and the arcade was a blast! The views are absolutely incredible from sunrise to sunset. The owners are friendly and were accommodating from the moment we booked the property. They answered any questions and gave recommendations to make our trip even more pleasant. If you’re looking for a place to get away, relax, and enjoy beautiful Smith Lake look no further, Clearwater Shores is the place for you.

The house was beautiful. The owner & caretaker were very helpful. We had a great time! The lake was beautiful as well (our first time). Actually more fun to me than the beach & 10 degrees cooler! We will be back.

This was our first time to visit Smith Lake. Our family had a great time at Clearwater shores for our annual get together! We stayed during the 4th of July, and were 10 minute boat rides to two different firework shows. The property was very nice, with great views of the lake. The rooms are large and you will appreciate the space. We have smaller kids and they loved the game room, along with a safe driveway in the front of the home to ride their bikes back and forth. Bob was very accommodating and made us feel welcome from when we first booked. You can really tell the Ekman’s take pride in their home. We hope to be back soon!
