Cute little house close to the lake -
We had a wonderful time- nice little fire pit and seating area in the back yard for visiting. With a nice big deck for watching the sun rise with coffee ☕️ in the morning out front with view of the lake.

Perfect Spot!
This home had the perfect location near the lake with dock access! We had a wonderful time walking the neighborhood, boating on the lake and chilling in the backyard. Everything was exactly as it was listed with everything we needed to prepare meals and sleep the 12 family members who joined us for the weekend. Thank you for everything!

Nice neighborhood, could use a deep clean though.
House was in a great location to the lake and amenities. Could use a good cleaning as there were several spider webs visible, even on the lighting above the kitchen table.

It was absolutely wonderful. I would recommend maybe a bath mat in the upstairs bathroom. It was kinda slippery in the tub. But overall it was a beautiful house and it was very cozy.

We needed a last-minute place to stay for a family emergency. The host was very helpful and responsive, taking some stress away. The home was actually bigger than expected and cozy to come “home” to each evening.

Ventura home near lake
Lots of room for two families with young kids. Front deck is comfortable, plus a fire pit out back. Dock is okay for fishing and tying up watercraft -- but water there is not good for swimming. If you don't mind driving (or biking) the five miles to the town of Clear Lake where the beach and most of the attractions are, this is an affordable option.

Great stay
My family frequents the Clear Lake area all year long. This is our favorite place to stay! It’s in a great location with a lake view. It’s in a quiet neighborhood with nearby highway access if needed. The house is fantastic for two small families and a dog to share with plenty of room. Kandice was great to work with and was accommodating to our requests! We will continue to stay over and over again.

Overall the house is in good shape. The front and back storm doors need replaced. Since pets are allowed was expecting a fenced backyard but is not fenced. The appliances are new but the dishwasher did not clean the dishes well.
