Lake Living on the Water in Lakeport -Private Dock
I love staying here. This is our third year up for an annual bass tournament and it’s perfect. Clean, great deck that I love! Boat right there on the dock ready to go for fishing. Short boat trip to the casino for blast off. I stay behind and sunbathe on the deck and enjoy the canal. Easy and caring hosts. I have no complaints and will continue to come back as long as I can. I have family in the area, but would much rather stay here for as long as I can. Love it! So peaceful.

Modern Beauty in the Clearlake Keys - on the lake
Good hosts with everything as described. Would stay again.

Nice lake front private vacation home.
This was our second time staying here & like the first, it did not disappoint. I can definitely see it becoming our come-to spot. It really has everything you need inside & out, for a nice, peaceful, relaxing time on the lake. We really enjoy our time here. The weather was perfect & fishing was great. The lake had a bit more algae this time, but that’s always iffy here & didn’t take away from being able to enjoy our time here. The nights were clear & cool & perfect for stargazing. Jeff is a fantastic host, kind & very responsive.

Fish Off the Deck in the Keys 2BR 2BA w/ Boat Dock
My son and I were able to catch over a dozen catfish ranging from 11 lb -18 lb right from the dock.

Dany Lake house remodeled w/ dock/kayak/paddleboat
We loved our stay at the lake house! We are fisherman and the dock with the back patio was perfect to relax after a day on the lake. The house was very clean and inviting

Lakefront Paradise-Private Pier & Dock, Kayaks!
Very nice place! We enjoyed our stay and almost everything we need is available. We especially love the private dock so we don’t have to go out. We caught a lot of fishes and grilled them. Will be booking again with friends and family!

Whimsical Lakefront Home W/ dock & game room
so much personality in this cute little place. The beds were comfortable, and there were plenty of linens. Lots to do too. The pinball machine and the bumper pool table were my favorites. The neighbors were very friendly and the neighborhood is a gorgeous safe place to vacation. there was even a nice little hill to walk up with the dog. it was definitely one of my favorite Airbnb so far.

We had an amazing time at Amber's lake front house!! Amber was the most gracious host, attentive, communicative, and responsive. The house was well appointed, well stocked kitchen, and the view, just wow!! Love the outdoor spaces on both levels, we eat every meal outside. I love the location too, close to wine tasting and restaurants. Definitely will return soon!!

Exclusive Lakeridge studio, top amenities & trails
Terrific place! Very comfortable and in a fantastic location. Talitha and Allen are outstanding hosts.

Beautiful Lake Merritt
So nice, I’ve stayed there twice! Brian is a fantastic host! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Lake View Two
This was a great bnb walking distance to the lake. Many restaurants in walking distance as well.

Beautiful Private Garden Apt. Nr. Golden Gate Park
Toni was an amazing host and went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable! Their spot is such a home away from home. We had everything we needed! We traveled with our two year old son and their backyard was an amazing spot for him to get outside and get the wiggles out! The walkability was a huge draw for us and it was so nice to have so much nearby. Golden Gate Park was a quick walk and there was so much to explore! Highly recommend this spot to anyone visiting San Francisco.

Peaceful 2 bd Sanctuary by Lake Merritt w Parking!
Loved this place! We’ve been traveling around a lot and seen too many lackluster Airbnbs so this unit was a breath of fresh air. The place was clean! It’s eclectic without being too crowded or busy. The kitchen table is cute, there are great books and lots of lovely stuff to look at. The kitchen is much better stocked than most and Bree was a breeze to communicate with. We needed to add an extra night and she made it super simple and responded quickly. It’s easy to walk the lake and get to restaurants on lakeshore or grand and also the farmers market on Saturdays. There are stairs but they help you get your steps in! We would easily stay here again!

Small studio apartment in quiet neighborhood.
I spent a week here when my own apartment was under renovation. It was great! Very cozy, but had everything needed to live my daily life uninterrupted. I got to meet LaurieAnn and she was very kind. I will stay again if I need a place in Oakland. Thanks LaurieAnn!

Romantic - close to beach, shopping & restaurants!
pleasant decor, all the amenities you could need (Laundromat just next door), friendly neighbors, soft bed, shower has great pressure and all the hot water, even some tequila in the cupboard! 😅 Only thing I could complain about is it gets HOT in there on a hot day but just open the doors and hit the fans. Oh and such nice gardening, fragrant flowers everywhere. Thanks Kyle!

Beautiful One Bedroom Suite with Private Entrance
We had booked another AirBnB location that had at the last minute been cancelled. Fortunately, Austin's apartment actually turned out being closer to our family's Christmas festivities. He also was flexible & worked with me with a special accommodation that I had. I was able to make the trip from another state without having to be stressed out. He also replaced a coffee maker within 10 minutes of our request to him. The apartment was perfect for us! Size, cleanliness & a feeling of complete safety in the neighborhood made the trip work out beautifully for us.

Fabulous place cozy comfortable and beautiful surroundings. There is everything you need there and then some. Recommend this place highly.

Pine Haus | Lakefront • Kayaks • Hottub • Dogs
Beautiful, quiet, peaceful - a little bit of a drive from most activities, but the drives are just as beautiful. Highly recommend.

Cottage & private beach on 63 acres
My family and I had an incredible stay at Gower’s Airbnb. Honestly, it was even nicer than I expected. This property offers a true California experience that’s incredibly hard to find. I’ve driven along Highway 1 many times, always thinking how amazing it would be to spend time on that beautiful coastal land you see from the road, and this property delivers exactly that. We had lunch and dinner overlooking sweeping views of untouched coastline and the beach below. There’s an easy path down to what felt like a private beach (we didn’t see another soul the entire time), and we spent hours exploring the black sand, walking the shore, and checking out the tide pools at low tide. The whole time, I kept thinking how rare and unspoiled this experience is. Gower has created an incredible home, thoughtfully designed with all the comforts you could want right in the middle of some of the most beautiful land in the world. We’re already talking about when we can come back.

VIEWS!! Last Minute/Longer Stay SPECIALS!
Such a beautiful and peaceful retreat! Our dogs had a blast running around off leash on the hiking trail (the first part of the trail is steep but our dog with arthritis managed it just fine) and the house was incredibly well stocked and clean. Jeff and Trey were always very responsive and so friendly. I’m so glad this was our first trip with our newborn!

Moon on the lake.
Amazing location right by the lakeside and a beautiful well-equipped house. We could see ducks and swans coming out of the water onto the backyard right from the dining table! Would love to come here again. Thanks for being a great host, Barbara.

Gated Lakefront Cottage #5 w/ Fire Pit & Dock
We had an amazing stay here! We visited with our 2 kids over the long weekend and from the moment they woke up, they were mesmerized! From the bikes, toys, kayaks, SUP, row boats and fishing poles/tackle to the thoughtful touches (extra items in the bathroom like makeup wipes, razors, etc) and snacks, we can easily say this has been a top 5 Airbnb stay! Jason and Elaine came out and brought us a clothing steamer as we were getting dressed for a family wedding and they were 10/10 hosts-caring, kind, accommodating. We will definitely be back and if you are hesitating on hitting the “book now” button, don’t hesitate-book your stay asap! You won’t regret it!

Cosmo Beach: Riverfront Sanctuary
Beautiful home and surroundings. We couldn't have selected a better home for our weekend getaway. The home was comfortable and had everything we needed.

The Rock House
We had a great time chilling at the house. The house is clean and quiet with stunning right outside the window. Furnitures are clean and the kitchen is well stocked with what we need. Quincy is thoughtful to leave some blankets and poop bags for pet clients. Our pup loves the rock outside the house. Recommend the place and will book again.
