YSC Member Cabin

Clear Lake Cabin

Owned and run by our community since 1963, on the shore of one of North America's oldest lakes.

Since 1963

Experience Clear Lake

  • Private dock

    Swim, moor a boat and unwind right on the water.

  • Year-round

    Dock days in summer, cozy weekends by the fireplace in winter.

  • Run by members

    Low rates, because members look after the cabin together. Your cabin, not a hotel.

What a stay is like

A shared, member-run cabin on the water, where summers are for the dock.

  • On the water: a 100-foot private dock for swimming and sunbathing. Bring your boat; mooring is free.
  • The Social Hall: a cedar hall with a wood-burning fireplace and dance floor, plus a group kitchen.
  • Sleeping, by season: summer (May–October) is lawn camping (bring a tent) or sleeping indoors with your own bedding; winter (October–April) has beds in three rooms. Bring your own linens.
  • Pitch in: members share light chores before they leave, the spirit that keeps rates low.
  • Bring your people: non-member guests are welcome. Count everyone age 6 and up; children 5 and under stay free and don't need to be included.

Shared stays are priced per guest, per night. The entire cabin is one flat nightly price.

A short history

Owned and looked after by our members for 63 years.

  1. 1963

    The club's first permanent home

    After renting here through the 1950s, the club acquired the Clear Lake property.

  2. 1974

    Paid off and ours

    The loan was cleared, and the cabin and its three-quarter-acre lot belong to the members.

  3. 1986

    A dock built to last

    New floating docks on steel pilings and a rebuilt sea wall, all member-led.
