You can look at the the Clear Lake stretch in detail with Google Maps sat view and streetview. It's somewhat built up, so the speed limit will be modest, but there aren't tight curves or grades.
I have see posts that recommend a mix of roads around the south side of the lake. I don't recall the details, but I'm guessing 52 and 29. Looks like the south route has more divided limited access stretches.
GM gives 32 minutes/24 miles for the north side vs 43 minutes/39 miles for the south, but there may be times when traffic favors the south side.
20 east of the lake is curvier and more grades, but still easier than the alternatives to the north.
