The View at Gleanhaven If you're looking for full hookups and an RV resort, this probably isn't the site for you. If you're looking for unforgettable views, peaceful evenings, incredible sunsets, and one of the most scenic overlooks in Lake County, welcome to The View at Gleanhaven. Our private campsite sits above Clear Lake with panoramic views across the water toward Soda Bay. The overlook is so well known that the local Chamber of Commerce has used views from this road in promotional materials for the area. Whether you're enjoying your morning coffee, watching birds soar over the lake, or winding down after a day on the water, the scenery is the reason people fall in love with this spot. The campsite features a 29.5 × 35-foot compacted Class 2 aggregate RV pad, providing a solid, level place to park your RV or camper. Please note that this is currently a dry camping site: • No electrical hookup • No water hookup • No sewer hookup • No trash service (please pack out everything you bring in) These amenities are planned for the future, but for now we're offering a simple, peaceful campsite focused on the experience rather than the extras. The access road includes a fairly steep climb (approximately a 22-degree grade) for the final approach. Most RVs can make it without issue, but your tow vehicle and RV should be capable of handling a sustained uphill pull. The road is paved but can be a little rough in places, so please drive slowly. The property is quiet, with very little traffic. There are neighboring homes nearby, but the area remains peaceful and the neighbors are respectful. Just down the hill, you'll find easy access to Clear Lake, including a convenient pullout where many locals stop to fish. Clear Lake is famous for its excellent bass fishing, boating, kayaking, birdwatching, and beautiful sunsets. This is one of the few Hipcamp sites in the area, making it a great home base for exploring Lake County while enjoying a private campsite with one of the best views around. Come for the lake. Stay for the sunset. Leave with memories you'll be talking about long after your trip is over.Lake View RV Pad features a private 29.5' x 35' compacted Class 2 aggregate RV pad with plenty of room for most RVs, trailers, camper vans, and truck campers. The site is situated on a residential parcel overlooking Clear Lake and Soda Bay, offering panoramic lake views and beautiful sunsets. This is currently a dry camping site. There are no utility hookups available at the site at this time, including water, sewer, or electricity. Guests should arrive self-contained and prepared to pack out all trash. The site is accessed directly from a paved road. Please note that the final approach includes a steep uphill grade and some rough pavement, so guests should ensure their vehicle and trailer are capable of handling the climb. Guests have access to the RV pad and surrounding outdoor area for relaxing, bird watching, and enjoying the views. Clear Lake is just down the hill, with convenient access to boating, kayaking, sightseeing, and fishing. A popular local fishing pullout is located nearby at the base of the hill. The area is generally quiet with very little traffic, making it a peaceful place to unwind while still being close to the lake and local attractions.
