The Carriage House

05/04/2026

We love seeing our guests make the most of their time here at The Carriage House.

Neil & Heidi stayed with us this week and headed out on the lake for a special birthday fishing trip for Neil. Fishing was great for them!

The Carriage House is just a short walk to the lake, nearby boat launch, parks, and local restaurants—then back to a peaceful, comfortable place to unwind after a full day on the water.

A pair of mallards chose The Carriage House as home… and we can see why 🦆🥚

Spring is in the air, and even our feathered visitors are settling in just steps from beautiful Clear Lake. Peaceful mornings, lakeside walks, and a little bit of nature right in the front yard.

Visit us soon and experience it for yourself.

Clear Lake is kinda like Tahoe and kinda like Napa Valley, if you subtracted the tourists, dropped all the prices and turned back the clock.
