About the area
Clear Lake
Located in Clear Lake, this holiday home is in the city centre and on a lake. All Vets Golf Course and Clear Lake State Park are worth checking out if an activity is on the agenda, while those wishing to experience the area's natural beauty can explore McIntosh Wildlife Area and Hoffman Prairie. Meredith Willson Boyhood Home and Music Man Square are also worth visiting. Water tubing, power boating and sailing offer great chances to get out on the surrounding water, or you can seek out an adventure with cycling nearby.

About the host
Hosted by June Bahnsen
I've lived in this area for most of my life, and I love VRBO, which means you'll get high service and quality local recommendations. Feel free to book or message me first. I am happy to answer any specific questions in advance. By day I am a high school Spanish teacher, and by night I am a busy mom. I am a well traveled VRBO guest. I know what a host should do to a comfortable guest experience. My favorite countries visited, Mexico, Spain, and Italy.
