A Winter Wonderland In Clear Lake

Clear Lake is a favorite summer getaway, but the north-central town also offers winter enchantment.

With vacation rentals for every household size, the lakefront town might be the perfect place for a winter escape.

When the lake freezes over, it’s a hot spot for ice fishing. If you’ve never cut a hole through the ice to catch dinner, there’s an ice fishing school Feb. 18-21. And while the winter kite festival isn’t happening this year, you can hold a DIY event with your household bubble.

And for an experience at the iconic Surf Ballroom, book your tickets now to see Don McLean (you know the “American Pie” guy) Feb. 3 and a dance party on Feb. 4.
