Balsam Cottage is located on Clear Lake, part of the unique and historic Spider Lake Chain of Lakes about 14 miles northeast of Hayward. The Spider Lake Chain consists of 5 interconnected lakes known for its clear water, sandbars, picnic and camping islands accessible by boat, and is a desired fishing and watersport enthusiast destination. Power sports (boating, skiing, jet skiing) is restricted to the hours of 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. All other times, there are wake restrictions. There is a boat accessible bar/restaurant close by on Little Spider Lake and a golf course with bar on Clear Lake. At Balsam cottage we provide 2 single person kayaks and a canoe.

Walk out to a spacious lakeview deck where you’ll enjoy the best view on the lake including the largest island on the chain, Big Butternut Island. This deck gives you a birdseye view to watch the fisherman bring in their catch (or not) and wave to boaters and kayakers as they pass by. This deck also has a bench table for dining and a gas grill. The main level also features a full bathroom with tub/shower and two bedrooms, one with a queen bed and one with 2 twin beds. A spiral stairs takes you down to the lower level.

Timber steps take you down to the lake. There you will find an L shaped dock with ladder for swimming or launching the kayaks or canoe, and a rock lakeside fire pit. Plenty of room for your own pontoon or motor boat. Bring your own lifejackets and beach towels.
There is much to do close by, whether spending a day in Hayward on the historic and lively main street or finding a hike in the woods.
