3rd and Surf- 2 blocks from the lake, 1 block from the Legendary Surf Ballroom

This house is in the heart of downtown Clear Lake where you can meet most of your needs with a short walk. Spend time in the large back yard, in the gazebo, and feel free to park your car in the garage.
This newly updated home has a long driveway for parking. There are two bedrooms, both queens, and a queen sofa sleeper in the family room to comfortably sleep 6. Washer and dryer provided and free to use. Shower and bath, perfect for kiddos after a long day at the beach.

Great place to stay
Great location walking distance to the Surf and short drive anywhere else. Home was clean, had some coffee pods available and parking in a garage was a bonus especially when it was so cold. Would/will definitely stay here again.

Great location for the 4th!
We stayed over the 4th of July and it was the perfect location for downtown activities and a few blocks to the lake to watch the fireworks. The farmers market on Saturdays is also just a few steps away. Will definitely stay again
