Clear Lake Cottages & Marina

Opon arrival,moved to another unit due to ants in prior unit. Entered adjusted unit to smell of urine and staff cleaned upon notified. Latern at entry to unit didnot work and staff offerred lantern instead for sdafety fixing the next day. unable at first to work shower and staff needed to show us how to use as it was an outdated showerhead. Sink in bathroom had large knife cuts in sink. Nice property for fisherman and cute cottage. It appeared many of the other cottages were in much better condition than ours. Had a small doggie sheet given for room?? Never heard of that. Checkin/checkout all remote and needed to sign agreement that had the guest do several housekeeping chores when departing. Disappointed in rundown condition of town of ClearLake. Property much better than condition though than surrounding area. Will not return.

Great location, right next to the lake, with partial lake views from the porch. Check-in and check out were seamless. Staff were super responsive. Room was clean and interiors seem to have been recently remodeled

The room was so nice so clean it was perfect for the days spent there the view spectacular

This is a nice little place to stay and is right on the lake. We arrived early but were still able to go to our room straight away. We had done all the check-in via text & email and they had put the A/C on so our room was lovely and cool. Facilities provided were good and the room was spotlessly clean. We had been warned that because of the heat & algae the lake wasn't suitable for swimming in but they have a nice pool area which we had all to ourselves. Towels for swimming were provided in your room and we also had a little deck to sit outside our room. We had a really quiet, relaxing afternoon by the pool and the views over the lake are pretty. The staff we met were all friendly & helpful. We enjoyed our stay. I would say that the Clear Lake area itself looked quite run down and shabby. We were only staying one night passing through which was fine but I guess if you are there to go boating or fishing it's OK, couldn't see there would be much else to do.

Our first visit to Clearlake (or Clear Lake) and we'll get the bad news out of the way first. The lake itself is subject to so-called algae blooms in the heat of summer, which means no swimming in the lake. Activities *on* the lake, such as kayaking or renting pontoon boats, seem fine. And there is a nice pool on the property for swimmers and/or pool loungers. There are 27 cottages. 4 or 5 of them face the lake directly, which makes for a great place to sit; ours faced the lake. Most of the cottages seem to have at least a partial view from their porch. The cottages range in size and price, so review carefully when you make your reservation. I had no problem parking close to our cottage. Cottages have good beds, a living and dining area, and a kitchen (important: see below about dining). There is a modest daily charge for dogs; but we also received a nice goody bag for our pooch. Our porch had a gate, so we could let the dog off-leash on the porch. Again, check the description as this varies by cottage. The office is typically closed (the check-in is "no touch"), but there is quick response to texts to the office number. There are a few places to eat in town; nothing fancy nearby. A tasty Mexican restaurant, a nice coffeehouse, a good BBQ. The nearby Fresh Etc grocery store is well stocked for a range of shoppers, including those looking for prepared food. All in all, I can heartily recommend staying here.

Clean and pretty property with a nice view of the lake . We stayed in Cottage #15 , looks updated , very clean and bed was comfortable. I appreciated that they turned on the AC prior to our arrival since it was a hot day . The cottage included more amenities than I expected. The manager Bob communicated via text & email on check in & check out instructions. The no contact /lockbox was easy & convenient. A great place to stay if you’re in the Clearlake area !

Great stay, very clean and quiet.

What a fantastic cabin located right on the lake. To look out our window at water with no obstructions was priceless. The cabin was in perfect condition with everything we needed to cook our meals and BBQ. The onsite manager, Bob, couldn't have been nicer. We wanted to BBQ so badly but it was raining. He came out anyway and started the grill and gave us all the utensils. We will be back.

Clean and roomy 2 queen room, heard ducks in the mornings. Absolutely stellar location, and management could not have been more helpful. Just lovely, thank you so much.
