Charming Cottage on North Shore GREAT LOCATION

SoniaRating, 5 stars2 months ago

My friends and I stayed here for winter dance party. It was in a great location; walking distance to the surf ballroom. The place was full of cozy, knickknacks, and decorations. The kitchen was fully stocked with about any appliance or tool that you needed. There was a whole cabinet full of games to play if you would like. There were plenty of towels and washcloths. I would definitely recommend staying here. It is only less than a block from the lake.

Lakeview Cottage with boat launch access in front.

TherenRating, 5 stars2 months ago

There are many places to stay in the Ventura/Clear lake area. I found this place 3 years ago and do not plan to book anywhere else. Our group of 8/9 guys book a trip every year to enjoy some fishing on the ice in February every year. This home is always ready for us, and fits our needs perfectly! Cozy, a great view and plenty of room! If it is available, we will keep booking it! Thank you for being a perfect host!

Charming 3 bedroom lake home - on site parking

ErickaRating, 5 stars1 week ago

I stayed at Tony’s place for two nights while attending a local event, it was the perfect home base. Within walking distance are the lake, restaurants, and other misc businesses. The neighborhood was quiet, you will hear the traffic at night but it’s not overbearing. Kitchen is well stocked with appliances and wares, but make sure to bring your own condiments/sugar/spices. The home is spotless, comfortable, and cheery, you will love it.

Lake Views on South Shore; no cleaning fee!

ErinRating, 5 stars6 months ago

The home was very clean and homey. Exactly what my friend and I needed for a weekend away from each of our families. They were very prompt to respond with any questions and we enjoyed walking the neighborhood and coffee on the deck!

Maple creek cottage

MargaretRating, 5 stars3 days ago

Cute house, across the street from a creek and park with walking paths. Comfy bed, well appointed kitchen. Enjoyed sitting on the deck in the evenings. A very fancy Kohler bidet was a nice feature. Perfect place for a weeklong stay while doing inspections in the area.

StephanieRating, 5 stars1 month ago

We had a great stay here for our annual girl’s weekend. The set-up was perfect, and Brooke was great to work with- she accommodated a later departure time and even left muffins and fruit to welcome our group! Would love to stay here again in the summer and definitely recommend Brooke and her home to others. Thank you!

Cute cabin located in perfect location near lake!

SondraRating, 5 stars8 months ago

I’m a solo traveling while working remote. The wifi was great for video calls. Location felt safe. I even ventured over to the Tiki hut for dinner and a drink my first night, met some friendly locales! It was quiet during the week, I think other cottages left - it wasn’t rowdy on Saturday night by any means, just more people around. Some great options in downtown , 10 mins, or if you’re up for a 20 min drive - Mason City. Overall great stay!

Come From Away!

LisaRating, 5 stars1 week ago

We enjoyed our stay at Jaymi’s place. We have family in Rochester so we weren’t at the house a lot, just to sleep and take showers. It was perfect for my family of four plus my parents. There were enough beds and towels for all. When we arrived back home I was met with a message that seemed accusatory. Jaymi asked if we unplugged the WIFI and disabled the electric lock to the front door. We didn’t do either. No one ever connected to WiFi and we would never disable a lock on someone else’s home, or even know how to. When we would lock the front door while leaving there was a red flashing battery on the top, we did take notice of it because it was as if the battery was going dead, we even joked about it locking us out. I’m positive that was the issue, but was taken aback at the insinuation. Jaymi said that the internet provider was doing updates, but made no mention of the lock again. I want others to know that if you see an issue, communicate it, so you aren’t seen as the culprit.

Family cottage nestled along the woods & river

JaniceRating, 5 stars4 months ago

This house was wonderful for our party of 6, but it would easily accommodate up to 8. Not only are there a queen, 2 douple and 2 twin beds, but the living room is large and will seat 9 people. The two tables will seat 10 people. In addition to the full bath on the first floor, there is another bathroom with shower in the basement. We didn't use them but having a washer and dryer would be handy for longer stays. The views from the living room and kitchen are lovely and we regularly saw deer. The location was fairly convenient for us to spend time with our son's family in Wells and it was lovely. Our party consisted of adults, but this would be a nice location for families with children. The roomy 2 car garage is an asset in inclement weather. Will be staying here again if it is available for future family trips.

Clear Lake Retreat - near beach, parks + downtown!

TomRating, 5 stars4 months ago

Our stay at this beautiful, historic home was better than we could have imagined. The house is a perfect blend of historic home and modern amenities. We all slept so well in the comfortable beds. The home is located within walking distance to City Beach, downtown and all the fun Clear Lake has to offer. Instructions regarding the stay were clear and helpful. I would highly recommend a stay!
