Clear Lake, the largest natural lake in California at 43,000 acres, has a rich history dating back at least 150,000 years. Formed by volcanic action and a significant landslide, the lake's waters now flow eastward into the Sacramento River via Cache Creek. The area's history includes the presence of the Pomo Indians, who thrived along the lake's shores for thousands of years, and the arrival of European settlers in the 1850s, leading to the growth of farming, ranching, and toll roads. The region also became known for its natural mineral springs, which attracted visitors from around the world, leading to the construction of grand resort complexes. While steamers and later gas-powered boats once dominated transportation and recreation on the lake, today, residents and visitors enjoy a variety of water activities, from canoeing and sailing to fishing and speedboating.

Nicknamed the “Bass Capital of the West,” Clear Lake is without a doubt one of America’s best fishing destinations. Clear Lake is a rich, fertile lake that supports a thriving warm water fishery not only for bass, but also crappie, catfish, bluegill and other species. The lake is consistently ranked as one of America’s top 10 bass fishing destinations, including the Number 1 Ranking by US Angler (Nov. 2022). 

Lake County: The New Napa Valley.  Lake County is a dynamic and burgeoning wine country destination. The Lake County wine-growing region is divided into eight recognized AVA appellations, each with its own terroir, or sense of place, that produces grapes and wines of compelling quality and character. High elevations, abundant sun, volcanic soils, colder winters, and the purest air in California all contribute to Lake County’s compelling vineyards and wines.

Clear lake is easily accessible by both car and airplane, making it convenient to reach. The region is well-connected by major roadways, with Highway 29 providing direct access to the area. Additionally, for those traveling from farther distances, the nearby Sacramento International Airport offers a convenient air travel option. For those flying in from within California or neighboring states, the Charles M. Schulz-Sonoma County Airport (STS) in Santa Rosa provides another accessible air travel option, with a picturesque drive through the rolling hills of Sonoma County.
