Where I went to school: Dumont Iowa
I live on a farm north of Clear Lake. We have been renovating properties for over 25 years. The Clausen House was built over 100 years ago in the 1890s and we wanted to preserve the house so it can be enjoyed many more years. We recently remodeled the 1870 two story schoolhouse located on the same property into a second vacation rental.. Sharing it with guests coming to Clear Lake is a great way of sharing these historic home and schoolhouse.
