Newly Remodeled - Dream Lake Home on Cedar Creek Reservoir 60 mins from Dallas!
Note - this property has been off the VRBO market for the past year for remodeling and is just now coming available. The previous listing review: Wonderful! 4.8/5
This home is the perfect getaway spot for your family!
We understand the need get away and take a break in a safe, serene setting with your family. Now, all you need to do is come and relax, sit back with your feet up, and take in the beautiful lake views. Let the kids run in the fenced lakeside yard, fish off the dock, and for the hearty, enjoy a splash in the water.
You can swim in the lake right from the yard or fish from the dock. Cedar Creek Lake fishing guides believe fishing under at our dock to be one of the best places to fish on the lake. Boating and jet skiing make for good times in our protected waters.
Our lake home has 3 private bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, plus 2 additional sleeping areas: - The are 2 master bedrooms that each have their own private bathroom, a king-sized bed, and private access to the deck with a lake view. One of these has bedrooms has an extra-long twin bed. - The third bedroom has a king-sized bed and an extra-long twin bed. - The third shared bathroom has been recently remodeled and has a tub / shower. - The enclosed front entry has a queen futon. The house has 4 doors to the outside. So, if our guests use the enclosed porch for sleeping, they can have their privacy as there are 3 other doors to the deck! - The loft offers sleeping for 4 and access is by ladder for the young at heart.
We have rental watercraft available at our lake home. Rental is arranged separately: Sit-on-top Kayak (Two Person) Sit-in Kayak (One Person) Standup Paddle Board Paddles and Life Vests MAKE REQUESTS DIRECTLY WITH OWNER with payment arranged separately for these items.
We have a huge 50' covered deck looking out over the water allowing you to eat and play comfortably during any season or weather. You will be able to enjoy your family and friends with all the sights and sounds of deep water right in your back yard! The grill is new and has a spare LP tank. In the Fall and Winter, you have the warmth of the fireplace, or you can roast marshmallows over a fire in the fire pit.
The kitchen and family room were designed for entertaining! The large open area has tons of seating and many say the experience is like being on a boat with floor to ceiling views of the lake. There are two dishwashers, two washing machines, and two dryers to keep up with your needs!
We are located on the south end of Cedar Creek Lake where we enjoy deep, deep water. The water is typically 9 feet deep. The lake was down 5 feet during the 2022 summer drought, and we still had 4 to 5 feet of water under the dock!
The Pinnacle Golf Club is less than 1 mile away and is open to the public.
There is a boat ramp in our subdivision for launching watercraft and several large public boat ramps nearby.

The house and property was perfect! The new boat house/dock was great for our group. Lots of room and fishing was good too. We love staying renting it every year for our annual men’s retreat. John and Shelley are great hosts. Check in so quick and easy. The bedrooms are pristine, bathrooms are immaculate and the living areas are well stocked and certainly meet our needs.
The house had excellent views of the water. The kitchen had everything you need to cook meals. Check in and out was easy. Beds were comfy. Hosts were responsive to questions. It was the perfect place for 6 adults going to Canton First Monday Trade Days. We would definitely stay here again!!
This is an amazing property! Very quiet area and the view of the lake doesn’t get any better. The house is equipped with everything you need, is super super clean and comfortable! We had a short relaxing stay. Love that it is dog friendly and the yard is well enclosed. The metal stairs into the lake helps the dog get in and out easily while we are swimming.
Beautiful and peaceful lake house! The view of the lake is amazing. The beds are incredibly comfortable - slept so well. The house has everything you need for a great stay.
Very quaint home & well furnished. The kitchen was stocked with most anything imaginable to make your stay very pleasant. Close to Roche Harbor and other attractions.Directions to home on instructions were very helpful as GPS was sketchy at times
I loved staying at this house. The views were great. It had the best stocked kitchen I've ever seen in a vrbo and the hosts were responsive.
I'd love to come back in the warmer months and experience the lake.
House, lake and owners were on point! Well equipped kitchen, very clean. Recommend!

Thank you for your recommendation! We noticed you rates the property with 4 stars. We strive for a 5 star rating! Can you tell of ways we could have made this a 5 star stay?
Thanks!
This was by far the most beautiful lake house we have stayed at. It was extremely well stocked with anything you could need. Plenty of sitting spots outside and in to take in the lake views. The fenced in yard is great for bringing your dog! The steps into the lake allowed our dog to easily going in and out of the lake with us.
Can’t wait to stay here again!
Almost a perfect stay. As we all know nothing is perfect, but oh so close. Beautiful home, the hosts were wonderful and helpful. The gas grill wasn't cleaned before we arrived. We cleaned it better than we found it. The home accommodations and view were great. We had a wonderful family time and look forward to doing it again.
This a great property for our annual mens retreat. This is our 2nd year and we absolutely love it. Great space and amenities. Thankful for the access to the lake, we had one of our men baptized this year.

We are so happy you and your group could relax and recharge....and fish!
We have stayed in this home several times and it is always a Wonderful time. We range in age from 6 to 70 and we all love it. The home is beautiful and so well stocked plus it has an amazing view of the lake. Can’t wait to go again!
Location and Lake front view was perfect for our family and ideal for our dog with fenced in yard. Liked the stocked kitchen and luxury bathrooms. Would have given 5 stars but heater took forever to warm house, with sub freezing temps at night.

My husband and I rented this place for our 15th Anniversary trip in the middle of March. We stayed for a week, and enjoyed every moment. The house was equiped with absolutely anything and everthimg you could need. Everything as very clean as well. The yard and dock were easily accessible for fishing. We did not want to leave. I would highly recommend this place!

My family and I had a wonderful and relaxing holiday at this beautiful lakefront property. The house was extremely clean (even the back deck area), the kitchen was very well stocked and the rooms were all inviting and comfortable. The view from the living room is breathtaking and there are small amenities (games, movies, and a hammock on the back deck) that make this property even that much more enjoyable. I highly recommend this property, whether you are looking for a nice peaceful getaway for adults or a place for families with children.
Our weekend lake trip to this house was fantastic! We had 3 couples and each couple had their own bedroom and bathroom. We also brought our dog and really appreciated the fenced in backyard - Beds were comfortable; kitchen had everything we needed. The house layout is very well thought out with lots of outdoor seating in the shade, and lots of indoor seating with great views while in the A/C. We brought our own kayaks and launched from the backyard, did some fishing from the dock, enjoyed the firepit, cooked meals inside, and did lots of just sitting around enjoying the view!Thank you for recommending The Dock restaurant - only a few minutes away with great Happy Hour and food!The owners clearly put a lot of personal touches into this home, and it's all those things that make us look forward to coming back!
