Beautiful house and location

The house is at a beautiful and peaceful location, right on the lake. Deck in the backyard is really nice to enjoy the lake, its beauty and warm weather (during spring and summer). We also used the paddle boat they have, and my kid loved it. Will definitely recommend others to come and enjoy this property. The only reason I didn’t give it 5 stars is because of housekeeping. The house had spider webs in lot of places, dirt on the corners, soap or detergent not refilled. Bottom room’s heater won’t really heat up the room (the top bunk bed becomes warm but the bottom bed remains cold). Past that, we enjoyed our stay every much.

Thanksgiving stay

The view itself was worth every penny, but it was very well suited for my family. We had dogs, and kids that wanted to fish. So it was perfect! Only a 20 min drive to Clearlake state park where we had a couple of wonderful hikes. The views at night and in the morning were priceless. It was an amazing time. The neighbors were all very sweet as well.

Birthday weekend escape

Although the check in process could have been smoother- the view and the cleanliness of the house made it all worth it! The area was so peaceful. The view was breath taking and simply people watching from the kitchen table was all we needed. We were able to catch two BIG catfish! (16lbs and 11lbs) If you are looking for a little escape from technology and the day to day rush. This Vrbo is highly recommended! The whole time we were discussing when we should come back. Amazing place, highly recommended!!

Annual summer trip to the lake

We had 4 adults, 2 kids & dogs, whom all enjoyed a fun 5-night stay at The Perch. Soda Bay was lovely, quiet and serene, with lots of great nature watching. Look out for the Osprey nest on the telephone pole right out front! The boat lift was not available (owner’s boat occupied) and we thought it would be, but there are whips on one side of the dock, which worked out. Overall, we had a great stay, but only caught one bass fish, despite going out daily. We hope to return to The Perch at Soda Bay one summer. Thank you!

Great view

Although the fishing wasn’t that great, the stay was wonderful. We ran into a couple of mishaps due to the storm but all was resolved and had a several great days to enjoy the lake. We kayaked, fished, and used the paddle boat that was there. It was a wonderful stay overall. We all had a great time. It was plenty stocked with cookware, utensils, linens and plenty of room for sleeping and seating. The deck was wonderful. We enjoyed the outdoor areas. We would definitely stay again. Thanks Joe for checking in with us as well.

The Wonderful Perch

We really enjoyed this property, which is a tri-level home with very different living spaces on each floor. The deck in the back is fabulous, as are the views from the top and middle floors. The Perch is well appointed in all regards, e.g. bedding, towels, kitchenware, a BBQ grill, kayaks, a long kitchen table with a fantastic causal bench, and etc. The only minor note I would include in an otherwise splendid long weekend is that the street entry from the main road is a bit narrow and winding. You will likely want to bring your SUV as we had to dodge pick ups, trash trucks and other vehicles getting in and out of the property. Having said that though, we made it through in fine fashion and really enjoyed our time here. We would return for sure, and highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a lake front experience for groups either large or small. Thanks so much!

Nice location

I usually don't like to leave any negative comments but these are facts about the house. Outside entrance of the house had many spider webs full of mosquitos and the main door doesn't have screen door same goes for back door that connects to back patio. Furniture of the living room is not the same as pictures, the layout and couches had been change with a totally different decor taste. Outside patio had only two umbrellas pictures show three and one was broken on arrival I had to fix it myself with some tape. Recliners seat were not cover like one picture show and the whole patio furniture kayaks and pedal boat were cover with bird poop. So be ready to do some cleaning. Inside the house had some ants problems . Kitchen stove looks very old and air extractor had spider webs. We also found more spider webs in kitchen ceiling and living room . The bed covers they provide are very thin and kind of small for my taste. Not enough cleaning supplies (we couldn't find any pan duster ) like other houses have. Overall is a nice location and we had fun but I feel they should upgrade the pictures if they going to change the furniture and they should also try to do better with outside patio like covering furniture or store cushions so they don't get cover in bird poop. Owners are great very nice people thank you and they response very fast Very nice next door neighbor very friendly ......

Great fishing getaway

Since our trip to Tahoe was axed due to the AQI up there we did a relatively last minute trip up to clear lake. The house was perfect for a quick fishing trip. The house itself was exactly as advertised (but bring bug spray in the summer). Super clean and comfortable. Took the kayaks out to the point and caught a couple big bass. Was a lot of fun.

Great Spot

Great spot on the lake. Beautiful views with a wonderful deck overlooking the lake. Includes a boat dock too. Place was clean and enough room for all of us. Neighbors and owner were more than helpful and friendly. I’d definitely go back to this place but at a different time of year when you can actually swim in the lake.
