Great house and location. Had to clean kitchen when we arrived as many of the goods were expired, smelled and we didn’t want to put our food next to them. Garage is locked so minimal outdoor space to enjoy if not on the deck.

Nicely located home in Clear Lake

The location was very close to downtown and the lake, which was nice. The house was quiet and the redone bathrooms were very nice.

Perfect Location Near The Surf

Our group of friends had a wedding at the Surf and this was the perfect location! Within walking distance of downtown and right across the street from the Surf! A great benefit to have with a baby. Also very clean and owner communicates well!

Wonderful stay and property

This place is a gem. Our family of 6 really enjoyed our weekend. We will be booking this home again for next year. Loved the location, cleanliness of the house and open kitchen and dining room to entertain. Thanks Rykel!

I have a feeling that we will frequent this VRBO. I have a niece that plays Basketball for NIACC. This is a short drive from the college but worth being able to all stay together.

Very nice

We needed a place to stay while racing at Mason City. The kitchen was well stocked with utensils and small appliances. There was plenty of room for the five adults. We would book this property again.

Good location, clean but buggy

Great location close to many things and walking distance to downtown! House was clean. The only downfall was outside was very buggy and lots of spiderwebs so we didn’t want to be out there at all.

Good location

The location is great. We walked to the lake both days we were there. The only thing that needs improvement is the beds. Not super comfortable. I woke up both mornings with neck pain and so did my husband. Other than that.l, great place to stay.

Great Rental! Clean! Perfect Location!

The house is super clean, complete with everything you need and is updated/well maintained. I have been renting this house annually for the last ten years. Over the years we have seen updated paint, appliances and furniture. Meaning our stay is in a fresh well kept home. Rykel is responsive, communications are never an issue. Not only would I recommend this rental to friends and family, but I am a multiple year repeat renter. I already have my reservation confirmation in place for 2025!
