Hopitsewah is a former Pomo settlement in Lake County, California.[1] It was located on the west shore of Clear Lake; its precise location is unknown.[1]

It was visited by Joseph Warren Revere in the mid-1840s; Revere reported it to be the largest of the settlements on Clear Lake, with enclosed and cultivated lands.[2][3]
