Waterfront Lake House, doc, kayaks
Our stay at Miguel and Fannie’s home was wonderful! The home was cozy and the amenities were more than enough and the view of the lake from the living room was breathtaking. The patio has two fire pits and plenty of seating. The dock was an amazing spot for fishing and there was an abundance of fish. We will definitely stay again when we are back in the area. Thank you for your Hospitality!!

Entire Lake Front Home, Private Dock! Come Fish!
This was a nice a cozy place to stay. It was well stocked. It is not a convenient place to access stores. Not a deal breaker. It was cold and the water was very poppy so we could not take advantage of the Kayaks or paddle boards. We were there for business so it was not that big a deal. Overall-very beautiful on lake view. Nice place to relax and enjoy the water view.

Luxury Lake Front 3br/3ba with Hot Tub & Boat Lift
This house was just absolutely awesome. I went up to bass fish with two friends, and it was one of a kind. The boat lift is a must for any fisherman looking for a house. Location was perfect, views were great, and the house was really, really comfortable. This will be my top option from now on anytime I go to Clearlake.

Cottage in the Keys
If your in town to fish, this is a great place to stay! Very clean, amazing stocked kitchen, comfy bed, and great amenities. An extra plus was the boat parking on the dock, and the kayaks. We had a great weekend! Very nice hosts as well.

Great experience overall! We enjoyed the property very much. Everyone wanted to stay longer. Stacy was very proactive and responsive.

RnR on the Lake - an oasis in nature!
This lake house was perfect for our family of 5 and our holiday weekend getaway. We felt like we hit the Airbnb lottery. It was spacious and cozy at the same time. Our two older kids enjoyed the 3rd bedroom with the daybeds which also had all the toys, books and games. We appreciated that extra touch since we didn’t have to pack any of those items from home. We also appreciated the convenience of having a pack n play for our toddler. The hosts went above and beyond to accommodate families as well as fur babies! We brought along our pug and it was great knowing he was welcome. Our weekend was relaxing and peaceful (as much as it can be with young kids). We fished all weekend long and lost count of how many we caught! The location was ideal and we didn’t leave the house all weekend. We even used Instacart and DoorDash for some groceries and meals. The hosts were very responsive and friendly. I could go on and on about how amazing everything was. Thank you Carrin and Stan! 10/10 recommend

Spacious Villa in Clearlake California. Lux views!
Amazing view of the lake from the house and hot tub on the deck was cherry on the cake. Kids had an amazing time enjoying the hot tub. Kitchen is well stocked with pots, pans and basic cooking stuff, so we cooked our meals comfortably there. Beds were very comfortable and they even had extra blankets and sleeping bags. This house has everything for a relaxing and fun weekend. Host was super accommodating for our late check out. We and our friends had a wonderful time, looking forward to returning in the future. Highly recommended.

Modern Waterfront Home in Lucerne
We had a wonderful stay at this lake house! It was peaceful and relaxing, with beautiful views and easy access to the water, perfect for kayaking and paddle boarding. We especially loved the fire pit seating on the deck. The beds were comfy after a day outdoors. The host was very accommodating.

Pau Hana Retreat! Views Lakefront Forest Private
This place was a beautiful nature preserve with lots of wildlife around. We saw a mother deer nursing her young, baby turkey and their mothers and a couple times got to see a bald eagle fly by with a fish in its talons! Also lots of osprey and other bird life! Being able to look out the giant living room windows and watch the most beautiful sunsets over the lake is a vision we will never forget. We loved the style of the home with unique lighting options beautiful stone in the bathroom and all the faucet options in the shower as well as the double tub!! The extended guest house and lower bedroom was perfect for having our adult children and their partners visit us for the weekend. We had a great time playing games around the large kitchen table that fit us all! The serenity, beauty and magic of this property will forever mark a very special time during our 30 year anniversary celebration!✨💫💖 Thank you Tini and Kyle for welcoming us to your home for our special celebration! 🎉

Lake Living on the Water in Lakeport -Private Dock
I love staying here. This is our third year up for an annual bass tournament and it’s perfect. Clean, great deck that I love! Boat right there on the dock ready to go for fishing. Short boat trip to the casino for blast off. I stay behind and sunbathe on the deck and enjoy the canal. Easy and caring hosts. I have no complaints and will continue to come back as long as I can. I have family in the area, but would much rather stay here for as long as I can. Love it! So peaceful.

Modern Beauty in the Clearlake Keys - on the lake
Good hosts with everything as described. Would stay again.

Nice lake front private vacation home.
This was our second time staying here & like the first, it did not disappoint. I can definitely see it becoming our come-to spot. It really has everything you need inside & out, for a nice, peaceful, relaxing time on the lake. We really enjoy our time here. The weather was perfect & fishing was great. The lake had a bit more algae this time, but that’s always iffy here & didn’t take away from being able to enjoy our time here. The nights were clear & cool & perfect for stargazing. Jeff is a fantastic host, kind & very responsive.

Fish Off the Deck in the Keys 2BR 2BA w/ Boat Dock
My son and I were able to catch over a dozen catfish ranging from 11 lb -18 lb right from the dock.

Yellow Creek House.
Overall this place was spacious and beautiful. Nice patio area with a dock to fish from. Kitchen was very spacious also we bbq’d and kitchen was fully stocked. Propane grill was amazing. Loved the late check out it was very helpful. Very close to stores and restaurants. Only downside for us is no televisions in the rooms but other then that 10/10 would definitely return.

CLO Keys House -Hot Tub & Covered Boat Slip
Jason’s home was exactly what we needed to visit with my in laws and my husband and small child. The home was spacious and clean. Jason was very communicative and available when needed. We loved the ability to rent the boat for a tour of the lake. Having been to Clearlake a bunch in the past it was great to see the lake from a different vantage point. We look forward to staying with him in the future!

Lakefront | King Bed | Private dock |SUPs & Kayaks
Beautiful, clean, spacious home right on the lake. Excellent outdoor patio and seating area with a well maintained private dock. Plenty of parking. We will be staying here again next year.

Your guide to Clearlake
Welcome to Clearlake
Clearlake borrows its name from the 68-square-mile spring-fed lake on which it is perched. And Clear Lake is no average body of water. At nearly half a million years old, it claims the distinction of being the oldest lake in North America. Formed by volcanic activity, there is still molten rock underneath it, which helps keep the water warm — it’s especially balmy during the summer — and deposits nutrient-rich sediment, creating an ideal breeding ground for fish. Clear Lake is often named as one of the best fishing spots in the country, especially for giant bass and catfish. All summer long visitors flow into little Clearlake and the other waterfront towns that dot the lakeshore to swim, kayak, and paddleboard. (Jet skis are allowed, too, if speed’s your thing.) But swimming in a prehistoric lake is not all that’s on offer here. You’ll also find small-town charm, world-class wilderness, and a booming wine scene. Turns out that volcanic soil is good for more than just fish.
The best time to stay in a vacation rental in Clearlake
Summer is high season in Clearlake, when hot weather makes for perfect days on the water. In spring the crowds recede a bit, but the sun still shines and wildflowers bloom in the surrounding forests. In fall the leaves change color, the temperature drops, and local communities celebrate harvest season with events such as Kelseyville’s Pear Festival, held the last Saturday in September. Winter is cold, and snow blankets the nearby mountains.
Top things to do in Clearlake
Winetasting
Lake County’s first vineyards were planted in the 1870s, but Prohibition halted wine production and the industry stayed dormant until the 1960s. Now the region that includes Clearlake is rife with more than 30 wineries and nearly 9,000 acres of high-elevation, volcanic wine crops. The area has especially earned a reputation for its Cabernet Sauvignon and Sauvignon Blanc wines. You could easily spend a day circumnavigating Clear Lake and sampling local sips along the way, but if you’re feeling less ambitious, just head over to Kelseyville, which is home to more than a dozen tasting rooms.
Mendocino National Forest
Pack a picnic and head out for a day hike in this 913,306-acre wilderness. The forest is home to soaring conifers, verdant meadows, and cool lakes, and is exceedingly tranquil — it’s the only park in California’s network of 18 national forests that isn’t crossed by a paved road. Deer, black bears, jackrabbits, and bald eagles are just a few of the animals that live here, and throughout spring and summer, wildflowers such as California poppies and lilacs paint the grasslands.
Clarke’s Collectibles Lunch Box Museum
Drive 30 minutes north along the lakeshore to the village of Nice (named for the region in France, although it’s also a nice place to visit), home to one woman’s obsessive collection. More than 900 vintage lunch boxes celebrating classic TV show characters to disco are displayed throughout a brightly colored storefront, alongside salt and pepper shakers, Hot Wheels, and other kitsch. The museum is free and open to the public, but it's a good idea to call ahead and make sure it’s open.
