About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

In-Town Moose Haus Lodge

This rustic cabin will give you the feeling that you are in the middle of the woods while having the convenience of being in town. Located just minutes from downtown Clear Lake, the historic Surf Ballroom, and City Beach, this is the perfect get-away spot! A large upper loft makes this a great option for families with kids or a peaceful retreat.

Two queen beds, two sofas, and welcomed air mattresses (not provided) make this cabin stay comfortable for 6-8 travelers.

*We know that dogs are family members so we are pet friendly, we simply add a $25 pet fee to the total of your stay. Sorry, we cannot allow cats due to family allergies.

The lodge was everything we wanted and more. It was spacious, with every amenity we could wish for. Our most favorite aspect was its rustic charm. Nestled off the road, its location surrounded by trees, feels like you could be in the middle of nowhere, yet it’s a short distance from the lake, restaurants and other points of interest. We would heartily recommend.

We stayed at the Moose Haus because a friend and I took our dogs on a hunting trip and were looking for a place to stay in the Clear Lake area. The old barn style Vrbo had everything we were looking for.

Great Group Stay

We celebrated New Year’s Eve and had our family’s Christmas celebration at this facility for the second consecutive year. The host lives next door and was quick to respond to our questions but gave us the privacy we desired. The quaint downstairs area features an old fashioned kitchen, seating area with a gas fireplace, large dining area, private bedroom and a bathroom. The upstairs loft includes a large open sleeping area, game room and living room where the siblings all stayed.

Was perfect for my family gathering! House was immaculately cleaned, beds were comfortable, grounds were perfect for outdoor activities, located very close to downtown Clear Lake.

Rustic pet friendly vacation rental

It was the perfect place for us. We enjoyed the large lot for our pets, space to move around, and overall set up of the rental. One bathroom with low light was hard to manage when dealing with eye contacts but I was able to figure out a way to manage. We'd come back again.
