Close enough to downtown to walk. Very clean property. Liked the deck areas to sit and enjoy the outdoors with an outdoor shower. The front deck you have a partial view of the lake. Enjoyed the board games. They have a well stocked kitchen.Be aware that the main bedroom is upstairs.We would definitely stay again!

We loved the location, we walked with the kids everywhere! To the beach, and shopping. It was very, very clean and it was stocked with anything we could have wanted or needed!! Very impressed with it. The carport was a nice place to hang out, too, when we had too much sun. We really loved our time there!

Aww we are so happy to hear you had a great time! You're right- staying under the carport is great to get out of the sun! We have also used it when it was raining- it was the perfect hang out spot! It's wonderful to hear the place was clean and well-stocked :) Thank you for sharing such a lovely account of your time there!

Great Lake Getaway

Great location and very comfortable lake cottage! We loved that we could sit on the front porch and watch the sun setting over the lake each evening. Easy walk to downtown and the beach. Hosts provided everything one would need!

This was a great place to stay. We were here for the July 4th weekend and we were able to walk to everything rather than drive and have to look for parking. I would say it is 4 blocks to City Park. The property is beautifully updated and has plenty of sleeping space. The public access to the lake is at the end of the street and so handy. We had everything we needed. I didn’t have reason to reach out to our host. I would stay again.

Clear Lake near the beach

We loved walking to the water and spending time with family. Relaxing on the deck and cooking on the flat top was great. Very peaceful. Would stay again!

Cute house close to the lake

The location of this house was great, very close to the lake, also only a few blocks from the "downtown" Clear Lake area where a lot of the restaurants and shops are. We stayed here kind of in the off-season so it was a nice quiet neighborhood. Especially liked the privacy of the back deck and cool outdoor shower.

Comfy and plenty

So comfortable and plenty of beds for everyone. Check in was super easy. The house book was helpful. We were busy so didn’t use much in the kitchen. Location was perfect and would be great in the summer.

March Madness trip

We came down from Minnesota to watch March Madness and make a few wagers. The place was great for what we needed. Not too far from Diamond Jo’s, and a great location in Clear Lake. Pretty view of the lake, and walking distance to restaurants and grocery store. Quiet and pleasant neighborhood. WiFi and TV’s were great, and kitchen had everything we needed.
