Clear Lake Park offers beautiful lake views and a generally clean camping environment, with friendly and helpful camp hosts enhancing the experience.

Overall, the park has charm but would benefit from improved maintenance and facilities.

A previous review mentioned many issues they had with Clear Lake... I suspect most of the problems were due to timing (their trip was in the middle of the 2020 shutdown and lack of maintenance). We loved our stay. The camp hosts were very friendly and helpful, facilities were fine, if worn (due, I'm sure to budget issues). We would definitely stay here again.

Great site on the lake with full hookups, very quiet. Mornings were interrupted with the distant sounds of lions roaring.
Would return and stay longer next time to take full advantage of the lake.

- Standard cancellations usually have a $10 cancellation fee. Customers can generally cancel before the check-in date online.

- Individual campsites: cancelling after 12:00am local time the day before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.

- Modifications are allowed before the cut-off window, but fees depend on the change. Changing to dates completely outside the original reservation dates may trigger a $10 change fee. Extending or shortening a stay that still includes original dates usually has no change fee, though refunds may depend on timing and facility rules. Switching to the same type of campsite for the same dates usually has no change fee, but price differences are charged or refunded.
- Early departures may or may not be refunded. At certain facilities, partial refunds may be possible if staff can mark the site available for other visitors. No refund is given for a night if the early departure is requested after that day's check-out time.
