About this property

Lake Life
Come experience lake life at this private lakefront get-a-way. The secluded expansive yard is perfect for the young and young at heart. Cedar Creek Lake is known for great fishing and anglers recommend our water for a great catch. You can fish in the deep water off the large dock or swim and float in the shallow waters along the yard’s edge. There is even a jump off tower for the more adventurous spirit. There is something for everyone in the family.

If you have a boat, there is a nearby boat ramp and the water is perfect for tubing or skiing with easy tie up to the dock. If you are more inclined to lounge through the day, there is a hammock comfortable seating perfect for a good book or a long nap in the breezy, shaded yard. Kayaks are available for guests.

Relax
Once inside the house you will love the wall of windows that provide the spectacular lake view and beautiful lighting all day. The house is a reverse two story, so the master suite, living room/kitchen open concept are upstairs, which provides a beautiful view to everyone who stays. Have your morning coffee on either the upper or lower decks and watch the blue herons fish from the yard while the wood ducks frolic along the shore. You might even spot the local owl or hawk, as well.

Unwind
The side covered deck off the kitchen will be perfect for an outdoor brunch made on the gas grill with dining and seating attached. Or cook inside in our fully furnished open concept kitchen looking at the beautiful lake view. If cooking is not for you, there are plenty of restaurants with easy access take-out. We will provide our favorite recommendations to take in the local flavor.

Everyone can wake up to a water view with the 3 private bedrooms. The master suite is upstairs off the main deck, two bedrooms are downstairs. There is a TV room with additional sleeping, a fold out couch and twin trundle bed, as well as plenty of room for mattresses for kids. There are two jacuzzi tubs in this lake front retreat, one of which accommodates 2 people for that romantic weekend get-away.

This is not a party house. It is in a nice quiet neighborhood, with people who care about their property and want to relax on the weekends. Ideal for families and friends to gather for relaxing fun. Gather in this expansive yard for a spirited game of cornhole or washers, swimming or fishing from the pier, bobbing in the water, or relaxing in the yard.

We allow well mannered pets; but ask that they not be allowed on the furniture for the sake of allergy sensitive guests. Everything will be provided for you to clean up when your pet "goes" so the yard will remain recreation ready for kids and families. There is a $50 per pet per stay fee with a $125 refundable pet deposit if the house and yard are left with no traces of your pet when you leave.

Great Lake House

There were so many interesting separate places to hang out/chill inside and out on decks, lawn, hammock and even 2 kayaks. It'd be perfect for an extended family but also for a small group. Christy had many helpful suggestions and personal touches. We would never hesitate to stay there again. Thank you, Christy!

Lake vacation

We loved it. The property is awesome. Plenty of room for everyone. And the views looking out on the water are fantastic. We all enjoyed swimming and fishing off the dock. The owners are very friendly and helpful, especially with helping to load/unload the boat at the ramp. Five stars all the way!

Great relaxing lake house

We booked this stay for a relaxing time on the lake and to view some fireworks on the 4th of July. This place did not disappoint! Carol and Christy’s house was amazing! It accommodated our crew of 6 and room to spare. Their place was so clean and had all the things we needed to cook at the house most nights. The hosts were very communicative and willing to help with anything we needed. I highly recommend this place and we plan on booking next year for another lake house vacation!

Laid Back Weekend

As you drive up to this great place you definitely feel welcomed to a weekend at the lake right away! Downstairs had a 3 different rooms that were perfect size to have just enough room for privacy and sleep. Bathroom was clean and provided wash as well. Also, easy to use washer and dryer! Then you get upstairs to a gorgeous view of the lake and surrounding docks! Morning coffee on this upstairs patio is a must! The kitchen had plenty of room for any foods/drinks you may bring. Fully stocked with any plates/silverware/cooking tools you might need! Also plenty of space at the dining table for a big family! The grill outside worked perfect and was ready to go for dinner time. Now, back downstairs by the water is where you wanna stay all day! The grounds are very well kept and picked up. There’s a hammock to nap in, picnic table to eat at, and chairs around a fire pit to enjoy your drink while watching the sunset and all the boats go by! Also the dock was perfect to throw a fishing line out in the morning. It’s deeper in front of dock! The side cove area that was not as deep, was a perfect spot to get on a float and hang out in the sun! And lastly, the owners of this property are probably some of the sweetest people we’ve ever met. Very respectful to your privacy and ready to help at any second! The communication was effortless and easy at any time! Highly Highly recommend this place to escape for a weekend away, especially from the city like us!

About the host

Hosted by Christy L Hanson

This has been a dream home lake house for us for over 20 years. We have made wonderful memories with family and friends over the year and live in residence close by year round. Our friends, family, and community are at Cedar Creek Lake and we hope you love it as much as we do.

What makes this property unique

This property has lake front on two of the four sides. A gentle cove with a sandy bottom for swimming, playing water sports, floating and sunning is on one side. A large dock (you are welcome to bring your boat) with deep water for jumping off the provided "tower", fishing, skiing, tubing, etc. The large expansive yard has something for everyone, as well. Plenty of room to play yard games, picnic, lounge in the hammock, etc. The house also provides a great deal of privacy - so you feel like you have the lake all to yourself.
