This was our 2nd year staying at the property--can't beat the location and the house is big enough for 4 adults to each have their own room. Will be back next year!
The home was welcoming and easily accommodated all of our family of seven's Thanksgiving activities. The close proximity to downtown and the park was a great plus. We were very pleased with the facilities, hosts, and our stay.
The house was nice and cozy with hotel style amenities. Within a short walking distance of the lake, beach, park, shops, restaurants. Our host Bryan was was great. He sent us a welcome message and later checked to make sure we were enjoying our stay.
This home was wonderful! Loved the front porch! Easy access to beach and downtown. The house provided so many things that we didn't have to bring or buy when we arrived. It really met all of our needs. Would highly recommend for families.
Nice property in downtown location. The home had everything needed to make the stay relaxing. I would recommend this home to friends and family. Close to everything!
We had an excellent experience with the host, and the property was perfect for our extended family group. We visit family in Lake Mills, IA and will definitely choose to stay here over the hotels in Worth. Would highly recommend.
Loved our stay here! The location is perfect. Walkable to the lake, restaurants, and the brewery. There is a small grocery store one block over. The hosts were very responsive with questions and the home was exactly as described. We would definitely stay here again!
The property was very well appointed, beds were comfy with quality bedding, and the bathrooms were a good size and had everything we needed. The location was great for walking downtown and it was very close to the lake. The only problem we had was when we put the heat on high enough for the upstairs rooms, it made the downstairs bedroom too warm. It all worked out OK though. I would definitely stay here again! The hosts were quick to respond to any questions or concerns we had.
Property is close proximity to the downtown beach area which is really nice. The house was consistent to online pictures. The communication with property manager was good and all went according to plan. The only negative of our stay was the intense amount of fruit flies or other bug on the outdoor patio/back door as there are trees around the house. I assume we just hit our luck bad with that though and were there on a weekend the weather caused the bugs to be bad as I did see a lot downtown as well. Overall a great rental experience!
Very nice stay, clean and great location. Cute little place with plenty of beds that were comfortable. Great communication we really enjoyed our stay. Would recommend this place.
Porch was a beautiful place to relax, chat, and play games
Communication with host was very good.
Location of lovely home was really just minutes from anything we wanted to do.
Downtown is actually walkable distance, too.
Kitchen area well stocked with attractive dishware also. (We utilized restaurants but everything was provided if you wanted to cook your meals.)
Bathroom and bedroom spaces beautifully decorated and functional.
Parking in front, on a quiet street- or on the lot next to side entrance, was very convenient (especially for unloading and loading cars after stay)
Would highly recommend
Easy walking distance to downtown shops, park boat launch and lakefront. Nice amenities and well kept. Slept 8 comfortably with two full bathrooms. We really enjoyed our stay and would definitely look to book it again when we are back in Clear Lake.
We had a great time at this home. The house was nearly perfect for four couples. It is located in a nice, quiet neighborhood two blocks from the main street nightlife, shopping, and meals.
Our family loved this property. We walked to the lake, park, and downtown and enjoyed time on the front porch. The communication with the host was exceptional and we appreciated all of their extra touches in the home. We will highly recommend this property to our family and friends.
The house is beautiful. Comfortable, thoughtful...that relaxing vibe. It is in the middle of town. Walkable to all the shops, the beach, the restaurants. It was perfect for our purposes (old) college pals and our teen kids. They had the freedom they needed to go about town and we were able to just chill in adorable Clear Lake. Clear Lake was not on my radar screen at all--the pandemic had us scrambling to find a spot and we thankfully ended up here. We will be back.
Thank you for looking at our property! My wife Keli and I live in the Houston Texas area. We both work in the mortgage industry helping people get into their dream homes. It is a very rewarding career! When we are not working we look for ways to get to Clear Lake as often as we can. We have some very close friends and family who live near by as well. If we can be of any help to you please let us know.
