Owner's Profile

Owner Description

Year Purchased: 2007

We love Clear Lake! The Surf Ballroom is what brought us to the town. We came for a concert and fell in love with the area. Our kids love to come to Clear Lake for all the family fun activities.

Why the Owner Chose Clear Lake

We chose to buy a vacation/rental home in this location because, it is walking distance to the Surf, restaurants, city park, beach, Lady of the Lake, shops and the list goes on. A typical summer day includes~ packing a lunch, biking down to the beach, swimming, playing at the park, getting a cookie at Cookies etc. OR buying an ice cream treat from the ice cream truck (complete w/bell and all),bumming around the shops and biking back...great day!

The Unique Benefits of this Cottage

Off season there's still plenty to do...stay in the cozy cottage, play games, watch a movie, go to the Lakes theatre, head to Mason City for some shopping or visit the museums. There's numerous events going on in town monthly, Christmas on the Lake, Kites in Feb., Buddy Holly winter festival at the Surf Ballroom, 4th of July celebration etc. Every time we are in Clear Lake we're never ready to leave!

    • Great rental. Perfect for our family to have some down time. Play games, work puzzles, walk around a charming town, read books, watch a movie. All in the comfort of a great cottage. Very clean and organized. Tastefully decorated. The owners and realtors are pleasant and cooperative.

    • Girls weekend at the Surf-N-Sleep was perfect. The house was super clean and cute. It's even nicer than the pictures show. Lots of shops and restaurants close by. It was so nice to be able to walk everywhere. I will definitely go back to the Surf-N-Sleep!

    • What a GREAT weekend we had! The cottage is beautiful and so cozy! It was very convinient as we were so close to everything. We were able to walk to the beach, go shopping, to the parks, and restaurants. It was a perfect central location. Us ladies had lots of laughs playing teather ball in the backyard and hanging out on the patio. We had a fabulous time and can't wait for the Surf-N-Sleep next year! Thanks!

    • We had a wonderful stay at the Surf-N-Sleep. It was the first time renting from something like this and it was great. The house was well supplied and buying some groceries is cheaper than eating out every night.The inside of the house is even nicer than the pictures show. Thanks for renting the house. It was like being at home instead of stuck in a one room hotel. Hopefully we will be contacting you again next year.

    • Thanks for sharing your beautiful cottage with us over the Memorial Day weekend. Everything was so clean and nice. We really enjoyed the backyard, the roominess of the first floor and how close it was to all of the Clear Lake sights. We definitely plan on visiting you again next year!

    • We loved this cottage - the word is "Quaint". The house is simply charming and we were surprised to find a sleep number bed as this is what we have at home also. The home was very clean and updated. A block away is the lake and the cottage is within a few blocks of the town. (Lots of quaint little shops in this town). We also drove into Mason City which was only minutes away - be sure to go to the Hobby Lobby store. Next time we want to bring our bikes and do some biking also. I recommend the little coffee shop located within walking distance also. We enjoyed your place very much. Thank you.

    • Thank you again for making your wonderful cottage available to us last week. It was much more than we expected, and perfect in every way! I would be glad to offer a testimonial to all future renters- they will not be disappointed. You did a fantastic job remodeling and everything is 1st class. We are looking forward to next year already!
